Happy when your dogs are happy.

Pet care experience

I grew up with animals and love spending time with them. I am currently working with Rover while I go through the process of gaining the education necessary to become a veterinarian. I have a large, fenced in backyard, and love to play with dogs. I require that all dogs are up to date on shots, and will only board animals from multiple families if each family is agreeable and the dogs get along. No surprises - just care for your dogs as if they were my own. I like to make sure that each dog is treated the way that I hope others would treat mine when I am out of town. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! If you prefer to set up a meet and greet, I am definitely able and willing to do so.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Joey for nearly three years. Not only is he enthusiastic about being a pet-owner for all kinds of animals, he is genuinely committed to the well-being of all animals. For example, he once found an injured gardener snake and took it upon himself to nurture it back to health. In addition, I have seen him interact with his own dogs on many occasions. His dogs are well-behaved, friendly, and listen to his commands. It’s clear he just “gets” animals and has a way with them. As a dog owner myself, I have complete confidence in Joey’s ability to care for my fur babies and can think of few any more determined to be a responsible, kind, and accommodating pet sitter or walker.

Dogs seem to instinctively know when they are around someone who loves animals. Over the past two years, I have seen the diligent care that Joseph provides each one of his dogs and cats. He has watched over my own dog, and I have complete trust in his attentive care for any dog. Your dog will be safe and happy hanging out with Joseph!

Joey is responsible and caring towards any and all pets. He has two dogs of his own, both of whom receive consistent, but individualized love and care. His pets are friendly, sweet, and well-behaved, which is in part a reflection of his and his fiancee's loving care and attention. I cannot imagine a scenario in which his dogs would not get along with even a more anxious dog. Joey is responsible and attentive with his own pets and his home. I have three dogs of my own and would trust him without second thought with both the keys to my home and the care of my dogs. Not only would I trust him to make sure the dogs were fed, taken out, and that my home was safe and as I left it, I would also know that he would go above and beyond to check in on my dogs, play with them, and spend time with them while I was away. Some pets are easier to care for than others, and I have an incredibly anxious dog with separation anxiety and another who recently adopted a tendency to try and run off. I would trust Joey with the extra care required for those dogs, because I know that he is a lover of animals like myself, is kind, caring, and patient, and knows what it takes to make sure animals are properly loved and cared for.

Joey has always been extremely sweet and loving to my dogs. I have three dogs, two small and one large, and they can be wary of new people, especially men. All three took to Joey quickly and wanted to play with him immediately. He is responsible and a great choice for all sizes and different breeds of dogs. I highly recommend his services.
