Joel made sure I knew my buddy was in good hands! I appreciated his help this week especially during an unexpected situation. Thank you, Joel!

Great communication & even though our boy was only with him 2 days, we received plenty of updated & photos. His dogs make great play companions if you have a high energy pup too. Will be rebooking!

Moon had a great time staying with Joel! She got along well with his pups, and she came home energized. Joel was easy to communicate with and was very accommodating.

Schedule

I’m a full time musician who gigs regularly at night, usually about 4-5 nights a week, but otherwise I am home practicing, doing computer work, and cleaning. Having my afternoons almost always free gives me more time to do extra things with my pets like take them to the dog park regularly.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 1BR apartment, but there is a doggy play area right next to me that I let mine run around at least twice a day. So no need so worry about yours not getting enough exercise. They will be walked in addition to that benefit. I do keep mine crated when I leave, and request that you provide a crate so yours can be contained to refrain from potential damage to my place.

Pets

A typical day

Walks, runs or fetch, and tricks are all activities mine love. If your dog is not a fan of anything beyond minor exercise, it will not be forced into doing anything more engaging.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

No females in heat
Joel can host up to 2 pets per night
Please, if your dog is more anxious or uncomfortable with other pets, set up a time enough in advance to have them meet mine at my place in the dog park area or on a walk to get familiar.
