Information matthew w. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds of all shapes and sizes. I am very responsive to the special needs a dog might have as described by the owner.

A typical day

I tailor the walk to the needs and preferences of each dog. I am in great shape and I love to run and play with dogs if that is what they like. I generally only have one dog at a time, so Fido will get all of my attention. If you want your dog to be in the company of other dogs to play, that is easily arranged.

Fur babies are my greatest love!

Pet care experience

I love dogs and dogs love me! I have experience with all types and temperaments of dogs, and patience and firmness are my strengths. You can be confident that your dog is in the capable hands of a loving caregiver.

Matthew was a fantastic walker for our puppy Zeus for the week. He took great care with Zeus, was respectful in our home and always responded very quickly and professionally. Confidently would recommend Matthew - thank you.

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.
