Safety, trust & environment

When I’m with my pets or caring for someone else’s they are my first priority. I am very detailed oriented and clean so caring for your pet within the comfort of your home while still meeting each owner’s expectations.

Information Matthew W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know their normal habits and any specificities that the dog has. I am very understanding and will respect the nature of the dog

A typical day

I can take the dog for walks around my neighborhood and even to dog parks located nearby if you would like. I love playing fetch or chilling inside depending on your dogs demeanor and activity level

attentive animal lover

Pet care experience

In my 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I have experience caring for dogs of many sizes and breeds. I have a huge heart for all animals but especially dogs as I have been around them since birth. I also have experience caring for cats the past 15 years via neighbors and friends. I am 6’2 so I will be able to remain control over a big dog when walking them. I also have no problems with dogs being in my face or licking me as one of my dogs at my parents house is very needy for my attention. I have no issue with driving to check in on dogs multiple times a day and have no other responsibilities at the moment so your animal(s) would have my full love and attention. Since I have not been living at home these past 11 years I have missed the love and affection of my own dogs so I am excited to care and spend time with yours.

Matthew was incredible. Grab him if he is available. Best Rover experience to date. Great communicator. He sent pictures and my dog was very well taken care of. Can’t thank him enough.

Matthew is the best! He is always willing to come last minute and make sure Zuri is very tired after her walk. I highly recommend and will use him in the future!

Matthew was great with our fur babies. Our apartment was clean and well taken care of when we returned from our trip.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
