About Matchgora
Built by people who notice the small things.
Matchgora started in 2014 when Maren Holt was the neighbor everyone called for a late pickup, a holiday feeding, or a nervous dog who needed a slow walk. She turned that steady habit into a full-time service, then brought in Luis Ortega, who manages scheduling, keys, and client updates with the same care he gives his own senior terrier, Toby.
We keep a small client list on purpose. It gives us time to learn the details, from the cat who wants the tap left running for ten seconds to the rabbit that only eats hay from the blue bowl. Most pet care problems are solved by paying attention and following the routine you already built.

FAQ
Common questions, answered plainly.
What kinds of pets do you care for?
We regularly care for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, guinea pigs, and other small pets. If your animal has a steady routine, we can usually work with it.
Do you stay in the home overnight?
Yes. Our overnight package includes evening care, sleeping in the home, and morning routines. It works well for pets who feel better with a person nearby.
How far ahead should I book?
Two weeks is helpful for normal bookings, and holidays fill up early. If you need help sooner, call anyway, because we sometimes have same-day openings.
Can you give medication?
We can handle most routine oral and topical medications if instructions are clear. For anything complex, we will talk it through first so everyone is comfortable.
Where do you serve?
We cover Briarwood and nearby neighborhoods, including Eastgate, Linden Park, and Willow Glen. If you are just outside the area, ask and we will see what works.
Need reliable pet care while you're away?
Call Matchgora, tell us the dates, and we will help you build a routine your pet already understands. The first step is simple, and the handoff is calm.
