Safety, trust & environment

I know how important your pet is as a member of your family! I’m happy to meet their needs, whether it’s walking, playing, belly-rubbing, or comforting them.

Information Joe A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. I’m especially good with senior pets that might need a little more time, assistance, or patience.

A typical day

I enjoy taking dogs for long walks and exploring the neighborhood or park. I can play fetch or tug-of-war with dogs or laser pointers and toys with cats all day. There will be tons of petting and belly rubs, and most likely some great pictures of your pet being adorable and enjoying themselves.

Experienced sitter

Pet care experience

I started pet sitting when I was 18 to earn some extra money in college, and I’ve been doing it ever since. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes, and I’m great at following special instructions. Additionally, photography is a hobby of mine, so there’s a pretty good chance that you’ll get some good pics of your pet in the process.

Joe is a terrific pet sitter, he is careful to tend to each pet's needs. He took very good care of my blind old pug for weeks at a time. This included carrying him up and down stairs, daily walks, and a medication regime. Your pets will be in very good hands!

Joe does a great job caring for my two cats! He is thoughtful, caring, and takes nice pictures. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, responsive pet sitter.

Joe has always been great with my dog and cat. He took my cat to the vet when she got ill and kept me updated with changes the whole time while I was out of town for work. My dog loves him and loves spending time him. Anytime I’m away and Joe’s available I know I don’t have anything to worry about!
