Day/Night Dog Sitter/Walker w/ car

I’m a present/attentive sitter with repeat clients. I am open to watch all breeds as long as your animal gets along with other dogs. Rollerblading fanatic with experience training dogs to improve endurance and leash etiquette. Owner of a quiet and playful shih tzu. My canine clients enjoy bottomless water bowls, a quiet atmosphere, and a lot of love. I own a car if you need help with bringing your animal over to my apartment. Please inquire about available video teleconferencing for live check-ins with your pup while away on vacation/work trips. I communicate needs and feedback reliably. If interested, I could give access to my Wyze webcam so you can check on your dog whenever Please note, I only take on clients that are up to date on vaccinations, non-aggressive, and mostly potty trained. I look forward to building new relationships with you and your animal. I clean apartments three days per week and the hours are flexible. I can work with you to meet your needs. It is no problem at all. I care for my pets at your home by first speaking with clients regarding feeding routines, walking routines, and sleeping routines. I can give as many walks as needed or requested.

Joe was great. Sent us lot of vids and pics. He was on time and my Sophie always looked happy. And he took out the garage and brought in the mail. Definitely recommend him.

Joe did a great job taking care of our dog during our trip. One complaint is that he had a guest over to our home without permission from us first. We would have been more than willing to let him invite someone over if he asked first. I know Rover does backround checks on the service provider himself but when a neighbor told us there was someone else in our home while we were away it made us feel a little uneasy. Overall our dog was well taken care of and the house was clean and in good condition upon return.

Our dog seemed to have a great time during his stay. Joe sent frequent updates and pictures so we had peace of mind that our dog was happy and comfortable. Would highly recommend.

Joe was amazing! Mylo has a blast. Lovely home and awesome neighborhood. I def use his services again. He was willing to go out of his way to get Mylo food if I couldn’t make it back to bring him Mylo’s food. I would recommend his services to anyone. Thank you for taking care of my baby when I was away. You’re the best!

There really are no concerns except that I cannot host animals where I am right now. I just need to know the schedule and any medications that your pet may need.
