Safety, trust & environment

I'm currently seeking to house sit and visit your home to care for your pets as I don't have a space yet that I feel would be a great environment to properly care for your pet. My goal would be to understand your needs for your house and animal. I'd keep a tidy environment and provide the best care and companionship for your pup or cat!

Information Joey M. would like to know about your pet

Helpful information for me to know to best help care for your pet. Important: -Feeding schedule (timeframes/ amounts/ any expectation for the sitter on assisting with one or more meals) -Medical conditions, medications (dosage/ schedule) -Behavioral quirks -Emergency contact -House rules set by owner (Examples) - Keeping doors and gates securely closed to prevent escapes - Not allowing the pet on furniture or specific areas of the house - Following a specific feeding and walking schedule - Not leaving the pet unattended for long periods of time Understanding these aspects helps ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience!

A typical day

In caring for your pets, I focus on understanding their preferences, energy levels, and training needs. Tailoring activities to what they enjoy, whether it's playing fetch, going for walks, or simply lounging together, ensures a positive experience. I adapt to each pet's requirements, whether they seek adventure or a more relaxed stay, providing the right balance of fun and relaxation.

Trusted Pet Care and Companionship

Pet care experience

🤓 Hi, I’m Joey! I bring a lifetime of experience caring for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, and a horse. Growing up, we raised over 20 cats and 2 dogs. With a natural connection to animals, they often gravitate towards me. I've been providing pet and house-sitting services for friends and family for years with a wide range of dog breeds and sizes including Yorkies, Shih Tzus, German Shepards, Austrailian Shepards, French Bulldogs, and English Mastiffs to name a few! 🐾 Important for New Pet Clients: To ensure a smooth and expedited first booking, please request a Meet and Greet at least 24 hrs in advance before your initial booking request. I typically book after the Meet and Greet. This allows for key/key code handoff, awareness on where pet supplies (leashes, food, toys, etc) are, and an understanding of your pets needs. This is essential for a smooth and successful pet care experience.

I am not in the habit of leaving a review. Every once in a while you have an exceptional experience and it is important to share with others. If you are looking for someone to walk your dog, Joey is the person you must reach out to. He will become your dogs favorite part of the day!

Joey was early and took Bentley for a great walk. Bentley was excited to see Joey when he arrived the 2nd day.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
