Pet care experience

Biologist and dog dad

I am new to the business of dog walking and dog sitting, but I have been around dogs the majority of my life. Growing up my family had three dogs, and currently I have a seven year old rescue dog, named Arya, whom I had adopted in 2019. I have lived in Tallahassee for almost 8 years now, so I am very familiar with the area. Looking forward to this experience!

Safety, trust & environment

My own dog is a mutt, mixed with pitbull and Rottweiler, so I know there is no such thing as "a bad breed." I will treat all dogs with the same love and care.

Joseph is very kind and compassionate to all of nature's creatures from insects to horses etc. He has never met a dog that he hasn't bonded with quickly. Once I saw him catch a hummingbird with his hands to rescue it from being trapped in a garage. I would leave my dogs in his care and be completely relaxed about it. He is trustworthy and intelligent. He is a PHD candidate at Florida State University.

Joseph is a very responsible, trustworthy, and compassionate caregiver to my two toy poodles. He is very detail oriented and followed all my care instructions perfectly. I highly recommend him

Schedule

While I used to be employed as a TA at FSU when I was a graduate student, I am currently unemployed and searching for research positions as a biologist. My days consist currently of job applications, so I hace a flexible schedule.

I do not have a preference for dog breeds, but I do need to know about any health problems or dietary restrictions. Also, let me know if your dog is aggressive to other dogs or to people so I can avoid them when walking.
