Animal lover and caregiver
Pet care experience

Reviews
We have been so happy with Joe. He was a recommendation from a previous pet sitter. He is dependable, kind and we are thankful he was recommended to us!
Joe worked with us almost daily for about 12 years helping care for our horses, dogs, and cats. He was fantastic with all of our animals. His gentle manner and prior experience working in a small animal hospital meant that he was attentive to the nuances of how everybody was feeling and he was comfortable giving medications. Shy animals warmed up to him quickly. He is an honest, kind, dependable gem of a human and we are sad that he moved out of our area! Highly recommend him. Your pets will love him.
About Joseph S.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
As my wife and I don’t have children our pets and all other animals I meet receive the same consideration and care as a child.
Information Joseph S. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if the dog has had any past trauma and how to avoid triggering that. Any dietary restrictions is of course particularly important.
A typical day
I especially enjoy a simple walk and observing the dog and its experience of the moment. Also playing fetch or whatever might be the dog’s favorite game.

Availability
Currently I work full time as a photographer but make time daily to care for our own dogs and cats which is certainly more important.
