Pet care experience

Trustworthy & friendly. I ❤️ 🐶

I have cared for dogs since a young age. Both my own pets and those of friends and family. This experience includes dogs young and old, all sizes (<20lbs to 100+), and a wide variety of breeds. From pampered purebred to resilient rescue I'm ready to provide the best care possible for your dog.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have reliable transport for myself, as well as enough room for furry friends in the vehicle. I have a portable crate as needed for safe travel. I'm happy to check in on pets on their home turf or explore regional outdoor spaces as weather and owner's preferences allow.

Matt was fantastic with my two boys, who are both younger and energetic (60lbs and 85lbs). Judging from the Furbo vids after the walks, they were well wore out. Highly recommended!

Matt is knowledgeable about reactive dogs and our dog Miko is becoming comfortable with him. He is very patient with Miko!

My girls really enjoy their walks with Matthew and seem happy when I get home from work every day. They trust him and when they are happy with someone, I’m happy! My little girl has reduced kidney function and can’t always hold her bladder as long. But Matthew is consistent every day and I’ve noticed fewer late afternoon/evening (before I get home) accidents. She’s doing really well.

I've known Matt for over 20 years. He's super reliable, and I wouldn't hesitate to have him take care of my pets (or my children, when they were young). He's easy to communicate with, and heloves and takes great care of his animals. I highly recommend him.
