Former Dog Daycare Manager
Pet care experience
Lifetime dog lover and have experience with large and/or reactive dogs. Dogs and cats have always been a part of my life. I raised and trained my own dog, Ozzy, when I was 15, and I currently have a beagle named Dio and a cat named Jack. Professionally, I was formerly a dog handler and a facility manager at a pet resort in Hadley, where I helped care for 50-60 dogs on a daily basis. Now, I help pet businesses with their marketing and advertising and offer my experience to pet owners and families in the area.
Reviews
Giuseppe is great with our elder pets!
Giuseppe is a really kind and attentive pet caretaker! I would definitely trust him with my cat again:)
Giuseppe always does a great job. Really appreciate the updates and photos!
We have used Giuseppe twice now while we were away and he was able to handle all 5 pets easily. His updates are thorough and his photos are excellent. They miss him already!
About Giuseppe L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
As a former dog daycare and boarding facility manager, I have experience caring for and managing a large group of dogs at any one time. Thanks to this, I have a keen eye for canine body language and developing trust in dogs that may be wary of new people. As a part of these duties, I've walked many dogs of varying temperaments, including reactive dogs, along popular walking routes and know what it takes to make sure everyone is happy and safe.
Information Giuseppe L. would like to know about your pet
Before booking, it is important to know about any health concerns regarding your pet, how well they get along with other animals and people, and how they react to others while on leash. I also like to know what they usual routine is on a walk, such as if they like to spend a lot of time sniffing or if they tend to pull, just so I know what to expect.
A typical day
Playtime and enrichment is important for every dog. On walks, this may mean stopping to let them sniff for an extended time, as processing smells uses a lot of brain power for dogs, or taking them down a street or path that is new to them so that they can experience new sights and smells.

Availability
I currently work on a freelance basis, so I set my own hours. That makes my schedule flexible and makes me available for most of the day, outside of the times I need to take care of my own pets.
