About Joel W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for every pet in my home or my client’s home. I believe in treating all animals with kindness, patience, and respect, and I make their comfort and well‑being my top priority. My home features a fully fenced, grassy yard where pets can safely explore, play, and enjoy outdoor time. Whether your pet prefers energetic play or quiet sniffing breaks, I ensure they are supervised at all times. I also have experience with positive‑reinforcement training, including helping dogs learn not to pull on walks. I truly enjoy walking dogs and would be happy to provide your pet with safe, structured, and enjoyable outings tailored to their pace and personality. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine will always come first while they are in my care.

Information Joel W. would like to know about your pet
To ensure I can provide the best and safest care possible, I like to gather a few key details ahead of time: Special needs or health considerations: Please let me know if your dog has any medical conditions, dietary restrictions, mobility challenges, allergies, or requires medication or special routines. Behavior and social compatibility: Since I have a very friendly, social dog of my own, it’s important to know how your dog interacts with other dogs. This helps me plan safe introductions and create a comfortable environment for everyone. Treat preferences: If you prefer that your dog only receives their own treats, please bring them along. Otherwise, I’m happy to offer the same high‑quality treats I give my dog. Sharing this information in advance helps me tailor my care to your pet’s needs and ensure they have a safe, happy, and stress‑free stay.
A typical day
You can expect your dog to live the good life while in my care. A typical day includes plenty of fresh air, exercise, and supervised fun. We’ll go on relaxed, enjoyable walks tailored to your dog’s energy level, followed by playtime in my fully fenced, grassy backyard where they can run, explore, and burn off energy safely. My dog Lexie, who is very social and playful, will happily keep your pup entertained whenever I’m not actively engaging with them—and of course, all play is closely supervised to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable. Your pet’s day will be a balance of activity, enrichment, companionship, and rest, all designed to make them feel at home and well cared for.

A safe and fun environment for pets
Pet care experience
I have spent my entire life caring for dogs and cats and have developed a strong understanding of their behavior, body language, and individual needs. My experience ranges from day‑to‑day care to basic training, socialization, and creating safe, positive environments for pets of all temperaments. I am also the owner of a one‑year‑old Doodle named Lexie, whom I personally trained. She is a friendly, well‑socialized dog who loves meeting new companions and will be a wonderful playmate for your pet. Together, we strive to make every animal feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for. *Please note* I am unavailable to care for your pet during the day on weekdays. Evenings and weekends I am free.
Reviews
I have known Joel as a work colleague and friend for over a decade now and can vouch for him on a professional and personal level. Joel and his wife own their own dog that we have met multiple times and is well groomed and taken care of, and I believe Joel has grown up with dogs in the family for most of his life.
Joel is an exceptional caregiver who treats every dog as if it were his own. From the moment you meet him, it’s clear how much he genuinely cares about animals. He’s patient, attentive, and deeply in tune with each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering comfort and reassurance, Joel goes above and beyond to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. He’s reliable, communicative, and always takes the time to provide updates and peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Joel with any pet. His compassion, dedication, and natural connection with dogs truly set him apart, and any dog in his care is in excellent hands.
