House Sitting • Aug 08, 2026

Matthew did a great job watching our Goldy. He was easy to communicate with and was great at taking care of the house. We would definitely use Matt again.

Matthew was an amazing sitter! So easy to communicate with, flexible when we needed an extension, shared photos, I could just tell that our pup had a great time! 100% will be asking Matthew to sit anytime we are out of town.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Im a current student at DU, and I love all types of animals. I miss my pets from back home so this a perfect oppurtunity to make some new furry friends. I have class on and off mon-thurs, but never away from my home for more than 3 hours at a time.

I have my very own cat and dog at home, and I just love being around animals. I know not just how to care for a pet, but also make them happy!!

Pets

A typical day

When I watch pets, I treat them like my own. I enjoy taking dogs on walks that match their energy level, playing games like fetch or tug, and using puzzle toys or simple training to keep them engaged. For calmer pets, I love spending quiet time together with cuddles, belly rubs, brushing, or just keeping them company. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owner is away.

think it’s really important to know about a pet ahead of time so I can give them the best care possible. Learning about their routine, energy level, personality, likes and dislikes, and any special needs helps me make sure they feel comfortable and safe. Knowing things like feeding schedules, walking preferences, and how they interact with people or other animals allows me to keep their routine consistent and treat them the way they’re used to at home.
