Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets are my passion
I grew up with my German Shepherd, Ace, since the start of high school. I helped train him, keep him active, and make adjustments for his special personality, like rationing time with balls because he loved them more than food. After Ace sadly passed away my mom got another German Shepherd, Ellie. I am currently helping watch and train her. She is the opposite of Ace in that she is not able to focus on anything sometimes even forgetting she was in the middle of trying to go to the bathroom. Working with both Ace and Ellie helps me appreciate how each dog has their own quirks that you need to adjust to and that make them the awesome dog that they are.

Safety, trust & environment
I work with the parents to make sure I understand any special circumstances relating to their pet. I then use that information to ensure I can keep their pet safe and as happy as possible.
Ratings and reviews
Matthew was great. I reached out on shorter notice and Matthew was eager to help which was a relief. He was very professional setting up a quick meet and greet and provided numerous photos and updates about the drop-ins. I would absolutely recommend Matthew and would rehire in the future without hesitation.
Matthew was great to work with. He followed all my instructions and always responded very quickly to any communication. It was good to know our pups were in good hands while we were away. Will definitely hire him again!
Matt did a great job checking in on Ivy and Cowboy! He is super flexible and reliable. We will definitely be using him again to care for our cats.
Matthew arrived when requested and performed well all the jobs required to care for my two cats. He even cleaned up vomit on several occasions, for which I am thankful!! He seems a calm presence for my two. Thanks, Matt
Matthew updated us frequently. We loved seeing our happy pet
Matthew was wonderful checking in on my 2 cats while I was away. This was my first rover experience but I would absolutely book with Matthew again.

Schedule
My other jobs are babysitting and tutoring which allows me a lot of flexibility because both of them are also done by customers scheduling appointments. This means as long as I don’t already have an appointment I am available.
