A typical day

Depending on the day it could be a variety of outdoor activities such as playing fetch, going on a nice walk, I like to get their energy out so when I take them on walks I like to take the dogs for at LEAST 20 minutes if not more, always shoot for more but it just depends on how the dog is handling the walk

works well with animals

Pet care experience

From a young age i’ve always loved animals, having grown up with 4+ animals in the house at all times i learned very quickly my love for animals. i have worked at 2 vets in the past and 2 doggy daycares, those jobs showed me how much i really wanted to care for animals, and while im out of work id still like to give my time to helping people out and making dogs happy with walks and play time and company, i have cared for dogs weighing from under 10 pounds all the way to almost 200 pounds, i do have some experience with administering medication orally and with a needle if needed. i cared for my elderly cat in the past and my elderly dog now, ive given insulin shots and given pills, i am more than comfortable handling that, by putting the pill in a small treat nine times out of ten they don’t even notice it’s in there! i know what the feeling is like to have to leave your animals behind when you go on vacation or wherever, but i would love to make them feel happy and loved while your gone! i care for all animals the way i would care for my own pets. my schedule is open now so even if you have a puppy who needs extra potty breaks i’m available to come up to every 2-3 hours if needed. i’m really flexible and can work with everyone

Joseph has a genuine love for animals that goes far beyond simply providing a service. His need for and appreciation of animal companionship truly shows in the way he cares for pets—with patience, attentiveness, and real affection. He treats every animal as if they were his own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walking, sitting, or simply spending quality time with them, Joseph brings a calm, reliable presence that pets respond to immediately. Any pet would be lucky to spend time in his care.
