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
Always great care for Gimli!
Joseph was great, he cared for my babies for 8 days. He walked them and played with them each time he was at the house. My old boy loves him and you can see the love between Jospeh and my Rocky. I would highly recommend Joseph to watch your pets. Robyn Candy
Joseph was an amazing sitter to our fur baby Brooklyn. She immediately took to him and it seemed as if they had known each other for years. Brooklyn was loved on so much! Joseph kept in constant contact, he sent videos and pictures, and you could tell that our old girl, was happy even without us being home. I definitely recommend Joseph and we will be calling on him again for such great and amazing care.
Joseph was fantastic! He often sent us photos and videos of our dog playing with other dogs, on walks, or in the backyard. He was easy to coordinate with and communicate with. I highly recommend him for watching your pet!
About Joseph G.

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!

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.
