Highlights
Pet care experience
Luvs and Hugs for The Pups!
With over 25 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from tiny lap dogs to energetic large breeds—I bring a calm and confident presence. Most of my experience comes from caring for my mom’s and friends’ dogs, which means I’ve built long-term trust and relationships through consist care. I’ve handled everything from overnight stays and long neighborhood walks to administering medications and managing feeding routines. I’m comfortable with all temperaments and energy levels, and I treat every dog like family. Whether your pup needs a playful companion or a gentle, attentive sitter, I adapt to their personality and routine.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a dog friendly, gated community that also has a dog run. In your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely. I maintain your pet’s routine to minimize stress while you’re away. I keep things tidy, secure, and comfortable for your pet. I am happy to provide updates and transparent communication to ensure your pet is well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Jose did a great job taking care of Holly at our home. He took her on daily walks and sent me pic updates each day. She really liked him and was happy and healthy when I got home, house was also spotless. I will definitely use Jose again for future pet care needs and highly recommend him.
Jose was a fantastic in-house sitter for my Labrador Retriever, she took to him immediately and he was a great communicator, sending plenty of updates and pics. He left my house neat as a pin, I will definitely utilize his services again!
Jose was great! He provided frequent updates and did a great job with Nala. Highly recommend!
“Jose was fantastic! He was professional, punctual, and incredibly attentive to my dogs. He kept me updated throughout, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear he truly cares about the animals he’s watching. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative sitter.

- To give your pet the best possible care, I like to learn a few key things before we start: • Routine & Preferences: Feeding schedule, walk times, favorite toys, and any quirks that make your pet feel at home • Temperament: How they react to strangers, other pets, loud noises, or new environments • Health Needs: Medications, allergies, physical limitations, or anything I should monitor • Training & Commands: What cues they respond to, crate habits, leash behavior, and house rules • Social Comfort: Are they okay around other dogs or prefer solo time? Any triggers I should avoid? • Emergency Info: Vet contact, preferred emergency plan, and how to reach you quickly
