Pet care experience
Fun Walks & Calm, Loving Care 🐕✨
I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years 🐾 ❤️ American Red Cross certified in cat & dog first aid/CPR 😊🐾 I’m fully remote and home throughout the day, allowing for around-the-clock attention, companionship, and quality care! I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities and focus on calm, attentive care so pets feel safe, happy, and relaxed while sticking closely to their normal routine. I enjoy staying active, so walks are always consistent and engaging while making sure your pet gets plenty of affection and supervision. You’ll receive regular updates and photos 📸 so you can feel confident your pet is in loving, dependable hands 😊

Ratings and reviews
We can’t say enough good things about how Matthew cared for our babies while we were out of town. He sent regular updates with photos and even left us a beautiful drawing of our little pups! Really one of the best experiences we have had to date.
Matthew was a great sitter. He took great care of our Kenji, and the house was left in perfect condition. He kept us updated with texts and pictures. I would highly recommend Matthew and wouldn't hesitate to use him again.
Matthew was amazing with our two fur kids (senior dog and young cat)! He was very detailed and kept us informed throughout our trip. We greatly appreciate the care and time he took with them. We will definitely be booking Matthew for any future sittings!
Thanks Matthew for watching our boys! Texted us pictures and stayed the night with them. Also gave our pup meds on time. Definitely will book again:)
I highly recommend Matthew as a reliable and caring pet caregiver. Over the past five years, he’s watched my Labrador Retriever, Ryder, and my chiweenie, Lily, multiple times, including overnight stays. He always sticks to their routines, makes sure they’re well taken care of, and gives them plenty of love and attention. He’s great with walks too—making sure they get enough exercise, always remembering the doggie bags, and being very cautious with the Florida heat. My dogs are always so excited to see him and run right to him, which says everything. Matthew is dependable, easy to communicate with, and someone I fully trust with my dogs. I always feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands with him.
Matthew did an amazing job watching my dog Hershey. He was very attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. My dog was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend him and will be using him again!

Schedule
Pet care fits easily into my daily routine 🐾 I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and can be available for morning, midday, and evening visits. I’m able to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m also available most weekends and can adjust to your pet’s usual routine to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible 😊

A typical day
A typical visit includes a mix of exercise, play, and calm attention 🐾 I make sure your dog gets a good walk, time to explore and sniff, and engaging play based on their energy level. I also check food, water, and overall comfort, and spend time making them feel relaxed and cared for. I follow your routine closely so your dog feels safe and at ease, and I always send updates and photos 📸
