Animal lover for hire!

Pet care experience

I’ve personally had pets and cared for them for over 20 years. Professionally I’ve helped many others care for their pets. I’m experienced, insured and will care for your pets with the same dedication that I have to my own pets. I’m currently working part time with a flexible schedule. I have always have time to care for your pets and my wife, who is also an animal lover, helps me on occasion if needed. I will be respectful of any rules you have for your own home, and uphold routines and training you have in place with your pets. My own home is animal friendly and safe, and I have a fenced in yard for my own two medium sized dogs.

Joel was great with our dog who has some separation issues. He left the house at least as clean as when he arrived.

Joel was great! Our energetic dog Addy can be a handful, but Joel was quite the dog whisperer. Addy loved her week with Joel and was excited every day go back. Will definitely book again!

Joel was very attentive to our dogs. My lab/hound mix is so afraid of new people but Buddy didn’t even bark at Joel. He introduced his dogs to my dogs in his backyard and took us through a tour of his home during the meet and greet. Joel took lots of photos and updates which we appreciated. Our dogs always looked comfortable and relaxed. He was able to give both dogs their medicine daily. And somehow our dogs came back smelling even better than they did when we dropped them off! Definitely recommend.
