My name is Joey and I am a part-time college student who does Rover full-time, leaving me with all the time in the world to provide quality pet care for your beloved animal. I quit my old manager job at Starbucks for mental health reasons, but being around animals has always greatly helped me to get into a better headspace, thus why I enjoy doing Rover so much. My goal as an animal caretaker/lover is to provide the most exceptional quality time of my undivided and fully committed attention. Your furry companions are in paws-itively great and capable hands with me.

About Joseph G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets by being mindful, engaging and active with them. Pets can get into troublesome behavior in a matter of seconds, so being observant and paying attention to their body language/needs has been a very useful practice to help avoid harm or stress to a pet. Most pets/dogs just crave attention and engagement, and that’s one thing that I love to provide for them.

Information Joseph G. would like to know about your pet
It’s beneficial to know if your dog gets along with other dogs, pets, or humans; so I can be extra mindful of those details whenever your animal is in my care. Also, if an animal has any specific triggers or out of the ordinary behaviors to be aware of. Another important detail to know is how you specifically reward or correct an animal with their “good/bad” behavior.
A typical day
With my own pup, a typical day consists of us taking long, adventurous walks, usually trying to take new routes for her to explore and to familiarize herself with an area (I do these activities with all the dogs I sit as well). She loves parks and anywhere she’d possibly run into a squirrel. Most dogs love running around and playing fetch, so throwing the ball around with them is one of my favorite activities. I also like to pamper dogs I care for with affectionate pets & cuddles when necessary. I also find it beneficial to reward dogs with treats and words of affirmations for good behavior, and for just existing!

Pet care experience
It sincerely brings me great joy working and being around animals, especially dogs & cats. I’ve had cats as pets for over 20 years, and having the privilege to engage with them has truly enriched my quality of life and has given me an even greater love and understanding of animals. I’ve cared for neighborhood and family dogs since I was a child, but I am finally taking care of my own pup for the past 5 years now. In addition to teaching my doggo love and patience, I am happy to say that I have successfully taught her numerous tricks and crucial commands that a dog should know for safety and protection. I am an aspiring dog trainer, and I am confident that I can teach and influence your dog in encouraging ways as well! 🥰

Reviews
Joseph did an excellent job caring for Phylos in my absence. Joseph provided plenty of video and picture updates, showcasing just how happy Phylos was in his care. He deserves every bit of his 5 star ranking!
Absolutely the best!
Joseph was very professional and fully capable of caring for my precious Pittie in my absence. I was very worried at first as this was my first time but Joseph made sure to send me updates (pictures & videos) to keep me in the loop during time of care. I would highly recommend his services and will be utilizing his services as well in the future. My dog bonded with him very early on which made it much easier for all of us. Kudos Joseph!
Joey was great! My boys felt comfortable with him immediately which made menfeeld good!! My boys are like my children so I’m grateful Joey took such good card of them!
