Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs since I was ten, both my own pets and the pets of my neighbors, friends and colleagues. I'm a well educated and responsible person who takes the care and safety of pets very seriously; But I also just love playing and being with animals! I am often the first person people call when they need someone to take care of their special critters while they're out of town. You can trust me to take care of your pets like they were my own. My schedule is very open right now as I have recently left a stressful full time job. I am working part time from home but that work is remote and can be done usually any time and anywhere. I am looking for other part time sources of income, including dog sitting. I'm hoping to work doing things I enjoy and am good at like working with animals! I am not equipped for overnight boarding because my apartment complex does not allow dogs in my building, but there are several lovely parks near my home that would be excellent for dog walking.
Reviews
Joe is a wonderful and caring dog-sitter! He stayed at our house for 2 nights with our Jack Russell Terrier, Rufus, on very short notice. We came home to find the house in order and the dog very calm and happy. Joe was diligent about getting Rufus the exercise he needs, and kept Rufus company in the comfort of Rufus' home. Joe loves dogs! He is dependable and trustworthy. I highly recommend using Joe for your dog-sitting needs! I know I will!

Skills
Information Joseph M. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what kind of personality the dog has so I can know the best way to approach it. I have dealt with high energy, super friendly dogs and cautious, lower energy dogs, and I know that different kinds of dogs enjoy different activities. I love big dogs, but I have experience taking care of smaller breeds as well.
A typical day
I'm a fetch throwing and tug-of-war machine! bigger dogs love to play with me because I can be enthusiastic and am not afraid of roughhousing as long as no boundaries are crossed. But I enjoy laid back fun as well. If your dog prefers gentler play, we can still have fun going on quiet walks and just getting brushed or petted sitting on the couch. Dogs are as different as people, so the approach I take is different depending on the individual personality.
