About Joseph M.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat all pets like they are my own. Dog approved affection (some only like gentle pats while others love a good hug and some snuggles), playtime, training, mental exercise, treats (owner approved of course), and lots of love! I won't ignore any of your rules or requests as I know how frustrating it can be to have people go against your wishes when interacting with your pet.
Information Joseph M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any special needs, quirks, or likes/dislikes your furry family member has so that I can ensure their total comfort while in my care.
A typical day
Fun walks while trying to switch up the path once in a while to add new mental stimulation as well. If you have treats and basic obedience training you are working on or want to work on (sit, down, stay, heel, loose leash) I would be happy to incorporate it into the walk if you wish.

Pet care experience
I volunteer at an animal shelter and deal with dogs of all sizes and demeanors. I have always had dogs in the family ever since I was a young child. I raised and trained a german shepherd from puppy to senior age. I am comfortable with all sizes of dogs, big to small. I love all animals, and really love working breeds.
Reviews
My Beags & I love Joe! He really has a gentle way with dogs and connected so well with my fur babies. I highly recommend him!
Joe is fantastic! I highly recommend him for walking your fur babies! He really connected with my 3 Beagles. They love him and were so excited to see him when he picked them up for their walks! What also was great is that Joe was able to help me out on short-notice and I can't thank him enough for that.
Joseph was extremely professional and I would absolutely hire him again! My cat is very skittish and afraid of new people but he had patience to coax her out and make her comfortable during his visits. Just a few days in she was bounding for the door and eager to play with him during the entire visit, and I couldn’t have left her in better hands.
Joe was awesome with my 2 dogs. One of them can be reactive to people & other dogs. Joe sat with them for a few minutes because it was their first meeting & Joe patiently gave them treats & soothed their anxiety. On the walk, Joe did great where my one wasn’t reactive at all to other dogs walking by. I highly recommend Joe!
