God is Dog

Pet care experience

My whole life I have been a patient, loving, and interested Dog person. With clear direction, I maintain a brisk, yet attentive dominant walk, and with joyous playfulness I give a dog its due love with treats and pets. I am always wary of other dogs, leashed or unleashed, while with those I am walking, I encourage gentle smells and "How-do-you-dos". Yanking and jumping are sternly avoided. As a walker in NYC I had to become extremely wary of the strength and attitude of the dog I was walking at the time, and I pride myself in being able to quell most dogs' penchant for overexcitement with other people and dogs in parks and on the sidewalks. When alone with dogs at home I take extra care in maintaining a healthy space for them to be comfortable lying down in, with plenty of water, toys, and treats for good behavior. I like to follow the rule: Lots of Love and Clear Boundaries

Joe was amazing! This was our first time leaving our two (large and anxious) dogs with someone they didn't know and he was great with them. Very professional and spent a lot of time playing with the pups.

Joe took excellent care of our extremely high energy dog. He hiked with him and tuckered him out. He was communicative and sent pictures throughout his stay. We would definitely hire him again :)

We have used Joe for 3weeks;two weeks and for single day pup and cat sitting for over two years and can absolutely give him a 5/5 star rating! He is very kind and is super attentive to the individual needs of our beloved pets. He is also able to adapt to the quirks of the pet parents so they feel confident leaving everything in his capable hands. Susan Shaw snflwrsusi@yahoo.com

Joe has sat for us on two different occasions; the first time was just after we adopted a rescue cat that was abandoned and had many issues. In the two weeks he was sitting for us the cat was no longer hiding or afraid of joe. The second time, we had adopted a puppy and Joe was able to support our training program while we were away. He stops by occasionally to visit our clan (2 cats and our dog) and they really enjoy seeing him (including the older cat). We highly recommend Joe for Pet sitting.
