Highlights
Pet care experience
Writer/Vegan/Dog Parent
I spend most of time time at home, writing, and playing with my 4yr old Aussie mix, Maxx, who loves to meet and show new friends around. We live in an a community with two leash-free dog parks and a dog walk/hiking trail. Please know your furry friends will be given lots of love, a reasonable amount of healthy treats, and, if you'd like, walks and play time outside. We can also arrange an outing to a local Dog Park or Petsmart. Please advise upon booking. I am an independent and insured dog care giver with informal experience with family, friends, and colleagues since 2009 in Lexington, KY and Santa Barbara, CA. References are available upon request.

Safety, trust & environment
I will follow your care instructions, but for my own living space, dogs are always welcome on the bed or furniture. They can also be crated at the owner's request, but mine will always be out.
Ratings and reviews
Joseph was amazing and took the best care of my three cats!! Multiple day visits and hangout time! Will definitely rebook in the future!



Joseph has been absolutely fantastic. He spent lots of extra time with our cat Buddy and sent great photos and descriptions of how he’s doing. I would highly recommend Joseph for all your pet needs!

Great communication! He watches after your pets like they’re your own


Joseph was very friendly and helpful with watching Lucie! I received plenty of updates and pictures, I know Lucie loved having him watch her!

Joseph M. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Joseph has been checking on my cats now for over a year and he is AWESOME. I cannot think of anyone I would feel more comfortable with watching my pets! ✨✨✨

Schedule
I have a very flexible schedule. Reach out to arrange drop-ins or walks for your pup! I can usually do morning, mid-day, evening, and night.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsJoseph can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
- I don't have any breed preferences, but I would like to know how your dog plays with others. What's their play style? Do they enjoy other dogs? Should I look out for anything while they are playing with Maxx?
