Availability

I work from home, which allows me to offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day. Because I occasionally travel for work, I keep my calendar very up to date. If you see availability, I am committed to that time. I just ask that bookings are confirmed in advance whenever possible. Please note: I require a meet & greet before accepting any first-time booking. This helps ensure we’re a great fit and that your dog feels comfortable and safe with me.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all owner instructions and pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any behavioral cues. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure they feel secure, cared for, and understood while you’re away.

Information Joey Y. would like to know about your pet

Before our first booking, I like to learn about: • Their daily routine • Energy level • Any triggers or special needs • How they do with new people or other animals This helps me provide the best possible care and keeps your dog happy, safe, and stress-free.

A typical day

I like to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged based on their energy level. This can include: • Walks and outdoor time • Fetch or tug for high-energy pups • Calm indoor play and companionship for more relaxed dogs • Reinforcing basic training and good habits Every visit is personalized to make sure your dog gets the right balance of activity, attention, and comfort.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Joey! I have hands-on experience caring for and training dogs from 5 months to 10 years old, working with a variety of breeds, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. Whether your pup needs structured exercise, calm companionship, or reinforcement of good habits, I tailor my care to their personality and routine.

Took great care of our dog while we were away, kept us up to date with his health, and took great photos. Would definitely recommend!

Reese had the best time and loved making a new friend. Joey asked great questions and made sure she fully understood Reese’s needs before the walk. Joey was also a great communicator and showed up on time!
