Pawsonal and services for your pup!

Growing up, having a dog in the family was a constant! My childhood pup lived 17 years and my first pup in adulthood blessed me with 16 years of adventure! I have cared for senior dogs and young alike! Currently I have 2 incredible doodles, Macchiato and Noisette (both 4y/o)! They love having friends come and play! They have gone to play groups and day care themselves, so they know the routine! I have been a hairstylist for 25 years and am beginning to pivot careers. I have a deep love and passion for pups and hope to add more services soon!

Joe has been great with my two labs, one who is young and a little more frisky. He’s been flexible and has a lovely fenced in yard. He took extra good care of them. I’ll definitely use him again. They are attached!

Joe was great. He took care of our two dogs beautifully, has a great back yard, and was extremely easy to work with!

Joseph was amazing! Joseph went above and beyond taking care of my two dogs. He sent me photos and video’s daily and alerted me when my Georgia was scratching a bit and followed up by cleaning her ears and then bathed them. I would absolutely recommend Joseph and his dogs are the sweetest.

Joe was amazing! He took the best care of my dog. Had a phenomenal understanding of dog behavior and treated my dog like he was one of his own.

Who better to leave your dog with when your are away than a dog lover themselves. Joseph is truly dedicated to his furry friends. He is responsible and reliable. As a dog sitter myself, who takes other people's dogs into their home, caring for them and loving them as their very own, there is no one else I would trust more with my own two dogs. He will go above and beyond to make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, well loved and taken care of. You will be completely at ease having your dogs in the company of Joseph and his own to furry friends. They will feel like they are at home while being away from home.

Joseph is one of the most caring individuals you will ever meet. His commitment to detail and care are superior. If you are looking for someone to love your pets like their own, he is your perfect match. Would highly recommend him!

Safety, trust & environment

I live on half an acre of fenced yard and would welcome pups into my home just as mine exist. Plenty of room to stretch their feet or relax! I am very receptive to owners particularities regarding their fur babies as I’ve been in the same position and know how it is to leave your babies with someone. I am a clear communicator and very dependable. Trust is key!

Pets

A typical day

I am an early riser, typically starting my morning at 4:30am. A little morning playtime and potty sesh and then I meet each dog at where they are at. Having one really chill pup and one that is really high energy has taught me a tremendous amount. Frisbee, ball throwing, play groups or a run! And of course, nap time ! Bedtime is usually between 8-9pm.

I personally have a strong preference towards dogs with hair or dual coats and tend to shy away from dogs with fur ( high shed dogs) due to allergies. Nothing of course is written in stone and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out!
