Meet Matt

Hi, I'm Matthew. I grew up in Dundas, and my family has called this community home for generations. I started Garden Companion Services because I saw neighbours I've known my whole life struggling to keep up with the gardens they've loved for decades.

Whether it's the heavy lifting, the bending, or just keeping up with the weeds, I'm here to help you enjoy your garden without the strain. I work at your pace, listen to how you like things done, and treat your garden with the same care you've given it all these years.

I treat every yard like it belongs to someone I've known all my life — because in Dundas, it probably does.
