I believe animals deserve attentive, compassionate care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I respect established rules and routines, understanding how important consistency is for a pet’s well-being. I’m a work-from-home computer science student and small business owner, which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to your pets, and I’d be happy to meet them and learn their unique personalities.

Safety, trust & environment

Because I work and study from home, my schedule is flexible and easily adaptable to your pet’s specific needs. I also understand that pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, which is why I prioritize in-home care. I’m more than happy to come to your home to ensure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been an important part of my life. I’ve grown up with dogs, and more recently I’ve learned the subtle language of cats as well. During my watches, I maintain strict medication schedules and consistent walking routines. I pay close attention to the small but essential details - keeping water fresh and clean, ensuring collars are comfortable, and making sure each animal feels safe, cared for, and understood.

We have had Joey house sit for our two rambunctious dogs and a picky cat several times, which is obviously quite a task, but it honestly couldn’t have gone better. Our cat took to him immediately, and the dogs got plenty of walks and playtime. Joey has always been communicative, respectful of our space, and clearly paid attention to each pet’s individual needs. It really took away the added stress when we travel and are away from our pets. I highly reccomend his services.

Joey has watched Diamond many times over the years and always takes amazing care of her. Diamond is so excited every time he comes over! Joey is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring we’re so grateful for his help. Joey also was able to help with caring for our plants on an extended trip! I would recommend Joey to anyone who wants their pet to be well cared for, and someone who will go above and beyond with communication and care.

Joseph embodies the patience and attentiveness required to watch over my border collie mixes. Our Annie is turning 14 soon but still requires constant playtime as a high energy border collie retriever mix. Joseph was fantastic at balancing her needs for both playtimes and breaks. Our Link requires specific periods of space and attention, as well as the occasional tug o war. Joseph was also fantastic at handling his needs with respect and enthusiasm! Our dogs and cat almost seemed bummed out when we came back because it meant Joseph had to go. 10/10, would have this sitter again.

Joseph took such good care of my German Shepherd puppy! He was so gentle while still playful and you could tell he cared deeply. German Shepherds can be equal parts brilliance and chaos and in between his puppy naps my Legolas was so energetic and Joey took great care managing his needs with patience.
