About Matthew

Absolutely love animals, wouldn't do life without them. Currently I have a Cat called Simba (The actual Lion King) and he talks to us more than we talk to him. I probably need to tone down the affection I give to him as he definitely does not appreciate it; he cannot handle it. I am not a dog person or a cat person, I think they are both amazing and give/take something different.

I want to be a pet sitter because I understand families want to go on holidays and can't take their pets with them. In saying that I'm happy to go the extra mile for house sitting because I know how much they miss their owners when they are away. Have had plenty of experience dog walking and playing with animals, at parties I'm the guy in the corner playing with the cat or dog.

Primary Skills: Professional door opener (For cats), Master Ball Thrower, Adept in Bowl Filling.

Secondary Skills: Dog Whisperer, Cat translator.

Backup Skills: Treat Distributor, Expert Cat Door Opener.

Your beloved animal(s) will be treated like royalty. However, whatever restrictions you have (e.g. no dog on the couch) I'll make sure it stays that way. :)

Will do standard feeding, walking, giving attention, whatever is required. Can do tablets if you need.

Excellent sitter. We're had Matt look after our cats a few times now. He has great empathy with our pets.

We had never left our 2 beloved cats before, one who is terrified of strangers, so naturally were very apprehensive about leaving them.

However all went well with Matt caring for our cats. He is kind,caring and reliable. We have booked him again.
