Matrix valued Laguerre polynomials are introduced via a matrix weight function involving several degrees of freedom using the matrix nature. Under suitable conditions on the parameters the matrix weight function satisfies matrix Pearson equations, which allow to introduce shift operators for these polynomials. The shift operators lead to explicit expressions for the structures of these matrix valued Laguerre polynomials, such as a Rodrigues formula, the coefficients in the three-term recurrence, differential operators, and expansion formulas.
