Matthew is so good with our cat Loki. He makes us feel comfortable that our cat will get his meds and a bunch of playtime and love whenever we are out of town.

Matthew took such incredible care of our cats while we were gone. It's always stressful leaving pets behind, but the photos and updates Matthew took made us forget all about that. One of our cats even needs medicine and it was no issue at all. It was immediately clear that our cats were in great hands, and we were able to get right to enjoying our trip without any worries at all! Thank you again!

Fantastic dog and cat sitter! Our dog can be a little harder to walk, but Matthew did better than we could’ve ever ask for. Would definitely book him again when we go on vacation.

Matthew is an absolute dream of a cat sitter. He went above and beyond for our cat Ellie. He not only got her out of her hiding but also made sure to check up on her food litter and water regularly. He was also very helpful around the house. He voluntarily took out our trash and vacuumed the area where our cat had spilled litter. He worked with us on our weird arrangement of getting into the apartment and always updated us whether we replied or not. I would 100% recommend Matthew to anyone who’s looking for a pet sitter.

A typical day

Pets need to be stimulated physically and mentally, so we’ll look to play with some toys and games to get them moving. With dogs, we’ll play fetch, with some chew toys, or run around the dog park. With cats, we can hunt with toys or a laser pointer. Head pats and neck rubs are a must for all good boys and girls!
