Pet care experience

Lifelong Dog Lover with soft touch

I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities. From raising two pit bulls from puppies through their senior years to currently caring for my energetic husky, I have hands-on experience with all kinds of breeds. Since I was 14, I’ve been the go-to dog walker and sitter for neighbors, friends, and family—trusted to walk, feed, bathe, and even help train their pets. I’m comfortable giving medication, handling senior dogs with special needs, and making sure every pup feels loved and secure. Your dog will be in caring, patient, and experienced hands!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is for dogs to be in their own home, where they feel most relaxed and secure in their familiar environment. I keep your dog’s routine consistent, whether that means regular walks around the neighborhood, playtime, or simply quiet company. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs—whether they’re energetic or like their alone time—and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and gentle care. You can trust that your pup will be treated like family, happy and safe until you return. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. I’m here to provide the same gentle, loving care I’d want for my own dogs. Can’t wait to meet your pup.

Jospeh was a great sitter for our dog and house. He was flexible when our plans changed last minute, and left the house in great shape. Will defiantly have him back

Joseph was incredible! He accommodated a last-minute booking and even a last-minute extension without hesitation. Communication was top-notch—he sent frequent updates and photos that kept us totally at ease while we were away. He was respectful of our home and went above and beyond to leave it spotless—dishes washed, house tidied, bedding already in the wash. You honestly wouldn’t have known anyone had stayed here! Most importantly, he took great care of our three dogs and treated them like his own. We truly appreciated his flexibility, professionalism, and care. Highly recommend Joseph to anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful sitter.

Wonderful young man who took care of our two dogs for couple days: Jack Russell and Rhodysian Ridgeback. Our ridgeback is very reserved dog, but Joseph was patient and he worked through Zimba to make him listen. Joseph sent us detailed multiple updates together with pictures which comforted us knowing our furry friends were loved and taken care of. Highly recommended!

Joseph did a great job. We didn’t have to worry while he was at our house. He updated at feeding times and asked good questions. We will book him again in the future.

I’m currently working a part time remote job and taking online classes to finish school. This allows me to provide midday walks, evening care, and lots of attention on weekends. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits in the afternoons, evenings, and all weekend long. Your pup will always have someone attentive around!

It’s very important to me that I know as much as possible about your pet before I watch them. Please let me know about their personality, favorite activities, toys, or treats, as well as their feeding schedule, any allergies, and any medications or health needs. I’d also love to know how they react to new people, other animals, or changes in routine, and if they have any habits, quirks, or things that make them nervous or feel extra comfortable. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor my care so your pet feels completely safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
