When Joseph watches your pet.

Pet care experience

A dog would enjoy a lot of patting and attention. I tend to talk to the animals quite a bit and they all seem to know the magic word - 'walk'. The walks really depend on the type of dog and size. However, I have dog sat a dalmatian and she loved big long runs and walks in the country. Some dogs fetch, others do tricks, some are super cuddly, others don't like hugs! They all have their unique personality, boundaries and that is what makes each so special to learn about and interact with individually.

I rebooked Jospeh to take care of my senior dog. My pet enjoyed lots of love and affection while I was away. Jospeh sent me lots of pictures of my dog, and was flexible when my flight home was delayed. I’m so thankful he was able to take care of my dog the way I would!

In a last minute struggle to acquire care for our 3month old pup before a family trip, Joe saved our butts. Despite me being very nervous about leaving our puppy for 5 days, Joe provided reassurance that he would take good care of our Ruegger. Ruegger got to enjoy playing with Joe’s puppy. Everyday I received a few pictures of Ruegger enjoying his stay at Joe’s. Upon picking up Ruegger, Joe provided advice to manage some of Ruegger’s behaviours that he saw as problematic while Ruegger was in his care. I would recommend Joe to others who are looking to find a kind, caring environment to board their pets.

Joseph took excellent care of our Yogi while we were out of town. He was very understanding when we arrived later than scheduled due to poor weather. He kept us updated with pics and our pup always looked content. He even pointed out something I wouldn't have spotted, which requires a visit to the vet, so we're very thankful for all of his advice and help. Couldn't have asked for a better place and will definitely return :)

I was very pleased with the care given to our dog MJ by Joseph. He understands the behaviours and needs of dogs. Our little dog had never been separated from us for more than a night so being away a week was a long time and a big adjustment for her. Joseph sent photos daily which we very much appreciated. I will definitely book Joseph again.
