Highlights
Pet care experience
A Dog's Best Friend!
I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, from smaller, Formosan mountain dog mixes and Pomeranians, to large American bully/pitbull mixes. I have also taken care of dogs of all ages, from golden retriever puppies to senior dogs with medication needs. While I'm taking care of your best friend, they will have their unique needs met and their need for companionship fulfilled until your return.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I bring a slow, trusting approach to working with your pet. As I work with your pet to address their needs, we'll learn each others tendencies and become more and more comfortable with each other, helping them feel safe and comfortable throughout my stint.
Ratings and reviews
Joseph took care of my two dogs for a week this past August, and I could not recommend his services enough! As the dog mama of a senior dog, it is not easy to find a dog-sitter you feel safe leaving your family member with when you are away. Right before a scheduled trip this summer, Luka, age 13, had some medical emergencies, and my partner and I were unsure if it was a good idea to leave town with Luka in this state, especially because it would be him and his 4 year old sister, Honey, needing care. Joseph exceeded all expectations as a caregiver and companion, and Luka was in a better physical state when we returned than we had left him! He has proven he can handle complex animal care (including medication/prescription diet schedules, emergency protocols, and daily preferences) while making sure the dogs still have fun. Honey received plenty of exercise, and Luka got all the cuddles an old man could ask for.
Joey has been taking care of animals for as long as I’ve known him, including my own on many occasions. He is gentle and attentive with all pets and provides a loving home. I always feel great leaving my dog with Joey, and I look forward to doing so for many years to come.
Joey has watched my cat multiple times for both quick weekend and 1+ week trips. He’s one of the few people I completely trust with my cat while I’m away. I especially love the regular photo and video updates he sends. It gives me total peace of mind!
