Pet care is a flexible and fulfilling addition to my daily and weekly routine. As a healthcare project manager, I have developed strong time management and organizational skills that allow me to balance my professional responsibilities with pet care. My day typically starts early, which gives me ample time to attend to the needs of the dogs in my care, including feeding, walking, and playtime. Throughout the week, I prioritize regular check-ins and exercise sessions to ensure each dog stays happy and healthy. My friendly and communicative nature helps me maintain open lines of communication with pet owners, keeping them updated and reassured about their pets’ well-being.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my client’s home, I strive to maintain their usual routine to minimize any stress or anxiety. I respect the pet owner’s guidelines and preferences, ensuring that feeding, walking, and playtime schedules are adhered to. I keep the home clean and organized, ensuring that the pets’ living areas are tidy and comfortable. Additionally, I provide regular updates to the pet owners, keeping them informed about their pets’ well-being and activities. My goal is to provide attentive, compassionate, and personalized care for each pet.

Information Joseph B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog likes to hear someone playing soft acoustic guitar because that can also be me! I love to serenade with soft finger picking and humming/singing depending on the dog!

A typical day

I always adhere to the owner’s rules and requests. Any liberties given will always start with assessing the wonderful angel’s personality! Wants to play? Absolutely! Wants to just relax and watch tv while I read? Absolutely. Walks always will be for the comfort of the dog and the wishes of the owner. Need some energy expended? I’m your guy. Want to just have a break from the house? Let’s stroll ☺️

It is always a pleasure to have Joseph watch our house and boys while we are out of town. He always gives the boys the attention we give them ourselves and treats them as his own. Will rebook Joseph for our next trip!

The best sitter I’ve had since I found my pup 11 years ago. Afterwards I immediately asked Joseph to watch June for an upcoming trip where I’ll be gone for an entire month. He is punctual, polite, respectful and took immaculate care of my house while I was away for 4 days. He also offered to stay late as my flight kept delaying. I’m aware most reviews may say a sitter went “above and beyond” but that couldn’t be more true about Jospeh. I have never in my life met someone like him. I’m grateful June had him while I was away
