dog's good friend, work remotely

Pet care experience

Hi there, thanks for considering me! I'm Joe, a Computer Science geek who loves animals. I work remotely for a start-up, so am pretty much your full time dog and house sitter. Although I recently moved to DC, I've visited often to look after my dad's pet as well as some dog/house sitting gigs for some of his friends. I'm currently working on developing an app for a startup, so really only need WiFi and a good companion(s) to accompany me on walks and the outdoors. If you have a back yard, bonus for me :) I'll give your pet(s) just the right amount of attention and exercise. I'm easy going and pretty flexible with last minute travel adjustments. I'm transparent with sending occasional pupdates throughout the day to keep you feeling comfortable while you're away. I'm a big fan of meet & greets so we can interact and determine if I'm a good fit for you. If I do host your dog, I have a fenced in tennis court adjacent to my yard, as well as a partially fenced in ball field to run and play in, depending upon your pet's needs.

Joe was on time and spent a lot of time with my pup (more than required!) but didn’t update me about how the walk went or leave a rover card which is always my favorite part of Rover!

Information Joe H. would like to know about your pet

As you can read from my profile, the more information shared about your pets, the better I am prepared to give them the attention and care they need.

A typical day

Walks in the park, woods, and trails are great for those who live nearby one, or playing in our fenced tennis courts. Playing in the back yard with fetch, or short runs chasing a rope, stick, etc., and/or walks on the leash sniffing and checking out plants and other dog smells are very stimulating for dogs, too. I'm here to do whatever routines make your pets happy and comfortable. Some dogs I sit for have various anxieties like avoiding people, bikes, and/or other dogs which I'm keen to be sensitive too also.
