Pet care experience

, responsible, and experienced pet

I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments—including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I’ve personally trained my own beagle and have also helped friends and neighbors with walking, feeding, administering medications, and basic training. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own—patiently, kindly, and attentively. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior, I adapt to their unique needs and personality. I’m also familiar with dog behavior and safety, and I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care.

I was so happy to find Jose. I had an out of town emergency and needed last minute care for Bingo. Jose was kind and attentive and stayed in communication, giving updates and sharing pictures frequently. It was such a relief to know that Bingo was being cared for in a loving environment. Bingo was at peace when I picked him up and so comfortable walking beside Jose. I would recommend Jose as an excellent caregiver.

I wanted a last minute quick get away and then I remembered that I have a dog and no regular sitter. Jose swooped in and saved the day. My dog did not want to leave his care!

Jose did a wonderful job of watching Ragu. He was quick to respond and followed my care instructions for Ragu perfectly. I booked him for boarding last minute and had no issues. Would definitely use Jose again in the future.

Schedule

I work from home as a software developer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I take regular breaks, which I use for walks, playtime, or simply giving your pet some extra love and attention. This routine allows me to be fully present and responsive to your dog’s needs, whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, or just being there for comfort and companionship.

Safety, trust & environment

I maintain a clean, quiet, and pet-friendly home with secure spaces where dogs can feel comfortable and safe. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully and take the time to get to know each dog’s habits, limits, and preferences. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, positive environment with consistent routines, supervision, and lots of affection. I also take safety seriously leash control, safe spaces, and always monitoring behavior to ensure everyone is happy and secure.
