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
Joe was great with our dog Nala! We had him come by for a drop-in and he kept Nala engaged, gave her plenty of playtime and cuddles, made sure she had fresh water and a snack. Looking forward to booking with him again soon!
I was nervous about leaving our kitten for the first time, but Joe was great! He went above and beyond and clearly gave him the attention and playtime he needed. We came home to a happy cat!
Having just moved, we were scrambling to find a sitter for our senior cat during the holidays. We were incredibly lucky to have found Joe! Joe went above and beyond to provide comfort, compassion and safety for our pet. He was great with communication, providing updates and photos. Joe also pointed out some things in our new home that we hadn’t noticed and could have potentially been dangerous for our cat. Joe was kind enough to keep our home orderly and clean from the inevitable mess that our furry friends can sometimes make. Thank you Joe for taking such good care of our pet and our home. We would highly recommend him to anyone in the area!
We needed a Dog Walker last minute for our Alaskan malamute and were worried using Rover for the first time, but read Joseph’s reviews and after meeting him, we had no concerns at all. He treated our Fenris like family and we have used him an emergency a second time now and absolutely love him. Highly recommend anyone who’s nervous using the app or having someone with your fur babies for the first time, but he is absolutely amazing.
