Pet care experience

Dogs' best friend

I have cared for all sorts of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their dogs to walk, feed, and watch them. Experience has taught me the importance of dedicating quality time, patience, and giving as much love as I can, so that dogs have the best life possible. I cannot wait to meet your pooch!

Safety, trust & environment

As a dog caretaker, please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, or even house rules like keeping off furniture. This will help ensure your dog’s safety as well as mine. I don't do well with dogs that play overly aggressively and bite. I'm available for "meet and greets" beforehand which are helpful to determine if your dog and I will be a good match.

Joe took great care of our Lola girl. We have a boxer puppy with a lot of energy and Joe was able to handle her well. They got along the first time they met and from the photos he sent during their walks, it looked like they both enjoyed each others company. We’re grateful for Joe’s patience with Lola and will be booking him again. Thank you Joe!

Joe has been an animal lover since he was a little boy. He is dependable and trustworthy and enjoys taking frequent walks. I highly recommend Joe to take good care of any animal he may be in charge of and I am proud to call him son. Phyllis M

I have known Joe my entire life. We grew up in the same neighborhood and went to school together and remain friends until our 50s. One thing that I can say about Joe is he is always owned and loved dogs. He’s had many types mostly golden retrievers, and has always been excellent at giving them the utmost care, and including them when we would go out and either exercise or walk around the neighborhood, he inspired me to get a dog when I was married and had a child whenever he comes over all of my dogs have always gotten excited to see him it’s like “here is uncle Joe to come play with us“ at any rate I could go on, but I won’t. If you’ve read this far then I hope my testimonial has encouraged you enough to recognize that Joe is excellent with dogs. I would leave any of my dogs past and present with him knowing full well that they would be in the best possible care .

I highly recommend Joe for taking care of your pet's needs. He's dependable, reliable, responsible, trustworthy and truly loves all animals, especially dogs. Joe has grown up with dogs & is very knowledgeable and understanding of their needs. He has experience in caring for dogs from puppies to seniors. He also enjoys taking long walks & is physically capable of handling dogs of any size/strength. He has a special sense and caring which dogs pick up on. He'll treat your dog as if it were his own. I highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for an honest and reliable caregiver for their dog.

Joe is known as “the dog whisperer” in our neighborhood. Dogs literally just love him! He is very patient and attentive with all kinds of dogs. Joe is reliable, punctual and very friendly and easy to work with. He truly cares for dogs and would be a great person to take care of your furry friends. Highly recommend!
