Pet Loving Cedar Rapids Resident

Pet care experience

I had a Boxer dog for a long time, and he was the best! In addition I've been in charge of watching friends dogs while they are away, which means keeping a medicine schedule and consistent walks to keep the animals happy and healthy. When I had my boxer, we would go on 2+ walks a day. Feeding can be challenging for some people, but I'm capable of maintaining strict diets of multiple pets if needed. I've also cared for blind dogs who need more attention. I go to Coe College full time, but have time throughout the day to come to the Cedar Rapids area, or North Liberty area to provide excellent dog care :)! I usually bring my fiancé who is a Rover service provider as well, so if you have multiple dogs they will all get lots of love! Please reach out soon, and don’t hesitate to ask further questions! Thank you!

Mathew is great! He came and took care of my dog and 3 cats over Christmas. He was timely, and sent pictures and even a little video! He went the extra mile when my doggo didn't want to do her business on the yard and took her on a quick walk around the block. I will definitely be using him again!

Matthew watched our dog for 5 nights. He sent consistent updates and spoiled Lola with lots of walks! We came home to a happy, calm dog!

Matthew was super communicative and friendly! He stopped by a few days before our trip to meet the dogs, which I really appreciated. He was polite and helpful. Highly recommended!

Matthew was great. He took my dogs for walks while I was out of town. I love the picture updates and they were very happy when I returned. I will definitely use him again :)

If the dog has dietary conditions that I must know about, biting problems that I need to be careful of when walking, or anything that would impact me providing safe and happy care.

A typical day

If they're a big dog I can take them to a big park with lots of running areas. I also enjoy playing catch with the dogs, and running them around until they feel tired.
