Pet care experience

Loving, patient, energetic dog dad

Not only have I cared for other people's animals, but I have a furry friend of my own. I know what it takes to love and care for our little family members, and I know what an owner would expect from a caregiver. I take time out of every day to ensure my dog has the best possible care I can provide, and I'll give the same effort to your pet. I have always felt a special bond to animals. At a young age I started caring for animals and slowly gaining more responsibility over their care. I have left food out and changed litter boxes for cats while owners are away, and stayed over for multiple days to care for rescue dogs who needed the company and support while their owner's were away.

Matthew has always been a dog lover. Whether with his own dog or with another Matthew enjoys interacting with dogs. Since acquiring his dog he has seized every opportunity to take her on walks and hikes to ensure that she gets proper exercise. I think Matthew will make a great dog sitter.

I highly recommend Matthew to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter and wants to have a kind, responsible, and knowledgeable person to care for their pets. Matthew is the only person we trust to walk our pup and dog sit while we are away. His love for dogs, care for their well being and overall commitment to the happiness of the dog and dog owner have always been a top priority. We appreciate all he has done for our dog and are confident in his abilities as a dog walker/pet caretaker. Paws up for Matt!

Wow! Exceptional service! Matt is the epitome of a “dog person”. Having a pet is a full time job ON TOP of having another full time job, and it doesn’t hurt to ask for help every once in a while. Thanks to Matt, I never have to worry about taking a vacation, working overtime or not having enough energy or time to tire my dog out. You have nothing to worry about leaving your pet in Matt’s care, he’s great!

I cannot say enough good things about Matt. He is so personable and responsible. He has always gone above and beyond for my dog and gone the extra mile to ensure her happiness and safety is priority. I highly recommend him from one pet lover to another!

Schedule

I work 100% from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I am a professional and already use my break times to get outside and take walks / go to parks, so getting your pet exercise is not an issue.
