Responsible and experienced walker

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Matt. When I'm not working I am spending time with my pups Millie and Cash, playing in the backyard or going on long walks. The joy we give each other is the joy I want to bring to all dogs, it's a huge part of why I signed up for Rover. I am positive, have plenty of energy and will keep your dog/dogs occupied with activities- Belly rubs, playing fetch, tug of war, or activities of your choice. I'm also happy to work on any training goals you have for your dog. I have been around dogs my entire life and grew up in my family's pet shop in Philadelphia. I have walked, groomed, and completed various levels of positive reinforcement based training. I hope to bring you reassurance knowing that when you are away, your pets are in good hands with tails wagging.

Matt is an awesome, energetic, responsible walker. The pups love him! I would absolutely recommend him.

Matt is the most compassionate person I know when it comes to all pets and animals. He has two dogs who are loved, spoiled, and trained like you wouldn’t believe. Matt has completed basic, intermediate, and advance group dog training classes with an aspca approved facility and is a calm and patient presence with all pups. He will not only walk, play, and tire out your pets, but will also spend his time working on any training goals you might have. Above all else, Matt is the most ethical person I know, and could be trusted to do the right thing in any situation. He started dog walking because hanging out with pups all day is something he’d probably do for free, but it’s also nice to earn a little extra travel money. I adore Matt and would trust him with my pets any time. If you want someone who is energetic, and who you can trust without worry to care for your pets, Matt is your guy.

Matt is probably the best caregiver rover would hire. He has two of his own dogs who are two of the best trained dogs I have ever seen. I have two needy pittbulls of my own and Matt is always willing to help out and watch them if needed. He is loving and caring but knows when to be assertive in order to have dogs listen. He is an animal lover and will be able to add the great list of people who are on the rover app. Please consider him for this position!!!
