“Matt was awesome with our two pups that he watched for a weekend trip. We got multiple updates everyday and lots of pictures of them both lounging and going for walks/playing in the yard. They were obviously happy and well cared for when we picked them up. We’ll definitely be going to him to watch our pups whenever he’s available.”

About: It's pretty simple - I love dogs and I work from home. Having recently said goodbye to my own best boy, Gary (a squishy English bulldog mix), I can guarantee that I'll get as much happiness out of seeing your dog as your dog will hopefully get from seeing me! I understand how important it is to know your pet is comfortable in your absence. I will treat yours as my own and send you as many updates as you'd like! Some key skills that may come in handy: - Walking dogs with leash reactivity - Experience with senior pets and those with medical needs - Administering medications, injections, paw wraps, etc. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play and love on your pups! I'm available for boarding all day, every day and would be happy to have a four-legged coworker around :) I have a fenced yard to keep your fur baby safe while exploring and getting lots of sniffs! We also keep a clean and tidy home to ensure your pet is always safe. Of course, there may be times when I need to step out (I'm human after all!), but will be happy to abide by any requests you have. Things like bowls, leashes, light up collars, pet gates, and a crate can be made available.

My dog has some separation anxiety, so we had to make sure we could find a good option for her when we go out of town. Matt has exceeded all expectations! Not only does she love getting attention from him throughout the day, but she also gets a bunch of dog friends to play with as well. Matt is great about providing updates and photos, easing our worries greatly. I could not recommend him more!

Michelle was fabulous! I was nervous about leaving my precious little 7 month old dachshund puppy who I had never been away from overnight, but Michelle made sure the trauma of separation was minimal. She let Tilly sleep in the big bed with her that I’m sure made a huge difference. She sent me pictures and updates often over the two day weekend. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. ♥️💙
