Safety, trust & environment
I always follow the owner's wishes to ensure their pets feel comfortable and safe. Whether that means placing pets in their crates when leaving, adhering to specific feeding routines, or making sure certain foods and treats are avoided, I respect each pet's unique needs. When walking other dogs, I’m especially careful to prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. Your pet’s comfort is my top priority, and I strive to create a stress-free, loving environment whether they’re in my home or yours.
Information Joseph M. would like to know about your pet
It’s important to me that your pet feels comfortable and safe, so please let me know if they have any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. Whether it’s dietary restrictions, medical needs, or specific behaviors like anxiety, fear of certain situations, or unique preferences, I want to ensure I’m fully prepared to give them the best care possible. The more I know about your pet, the better I can accommodate their needs and make sure they have a positive experience while in my care.
A typical day
When caring for your pets, I make sure to keep them mentally and physically engaged with activities they love. I adapt to each pet's personality, whether they’re a playful puppy, a curious senior, or somewhere in between. Fetch is always a favorite—nothing beats the excitement of a good game! I also love playing “guess which hand has the treat,” keeping their minds sharp and their tails wagging. During walks, we’ll explore new smells, enjoy the fresh air, and take in all the sights around us. Each pet gets the attention and stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy, all while having a lot of fun!

Love and care for your furry friend
Pet care experience
Since I was 10 years old, I’ve been caring for animals—whether walking, feeding, or simply offering love and companionship. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me with their pets, and I’ve always treated each one like my own. My joy comes from seeing animals excited for a walk, playtime, or a quiet cuddle. Over the years, my family and I have rescued many fur babies, each becoming a cherished member of our family. They will forever hold a special place in my heart, and that love for animals drives me to care for your pets with the same gentle attention and dedication. From puppies to senior pets, dogs to cats, I’ve worked with many of animals and developed a deep understanding of their unique needs. I’ll bring that same compassion and expertise to your beloved pets, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Let me share my love for animals with your furry family members!
Reviews
We had to leave town for 3 days and Joe took care of our dog for the first time, who is blind and needs injection medication twice a day. We did a Meet and Greet first, but there were still some challenges during the drop-in visits, because our dog didn't know him. Joe handled these challenges confidently, professionally and successfully. He sent several texts every time he came by our home to keep us well informed. He also sent pictures for our peace of mind. Overall, he took excellent care of our dog and earned our trust. I highly recommend Joe to anyone.


Joseph is great! He always takes great care of the cats, even gets the shy ones to come out, is super reliable, and provides really detailed updates. I really enjoy working with him.


Thank you, Joe, for going above and beyond on this last visit and finding a creative way for Sebastian to take his meds. It was a life saver in the moment. I appreciate you!


Sebastian and Bruno enjoyed their time with Joe. He was very attentive and caring. We are looking forward to seeing Joe again.
