Safety, trust & environment
I provide care in my client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow feeding, medication, and walk instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, and prioritize calm, structured walks and supervised play at all times.
Information Joseph M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about your dog’s temperament, energy level, training history, and any special needs such as medications, sensitivities, or reactivity to other dogs. The more I understand your dog’s routine and personality, the better I can provide safe, attentive, and personalized care.
A typical day
We’ll head out for an engaging walk with plenty of sniff breaks, explore new smells, and burn off energy at your dog’s pace. I mix in light games, playful interaction, and positive reinforcement so your pup stays happy, stimulated, and relaxed by the end of our visit. My goal is a tail-wagging, satisfied dog every time

I provide dependable walks, attentive in-home visits, and clear communication so owners feel confident their dogs are safe and well cared for. I have also managed dog groups in dog daycare so I focus on calm, structured, and positive care for your pets. — Loyalty Perk: After 25 walks, I’ll paint a small portrait of your dog as a thank-you ($120 value). I’m also a local artist schooled in Califonia who specializes in hand-painted pet portraits

Reviews
I will definitely be asking Joseph to walk Stella again. I was in a tight turnaround to find a dog walker. He responded right away, was happy to help, and took excellent care of Stella.
Joseph interacted with Hector on a personal level. When I came back from my trip, Hector rubbed against me like I was gone for A DAY. Highly reccomend!
Joseph took great care of my pups. Communication was easy and I'd highly recommend him!
Joseph M was great with Diego and Daisy. He has a great manner with the dogs. He was reliable and sent regular, detailed updates. We will use him again in a heartbeat.
