Pet care experience

Compassionate Care for Your Pets.

I have over a decade of experience caring for dogs and cats, both as a dedicated pet owner and as a trusted caregiver for family and friends. My deep love for animals and calm, approachable demeanor make me a natural fit for this work. Pets tend to feel at ease and warm up to me quickly, which helps create a comfortable and stress-free environment for them. I pride myself on being reliable, professional, and attentive to each animal's unique needs.

Joseph took good care of my two cats while I traveled out of state. I felt safe leaving them in the care of a more mature person. My home was tidy and well kept when I returned. And, he is also owned by 2 cats - that makes a big difference! Thank you, Joseph! 😽😸

Joseph was willing to take our request last minute over the 4th of July and squeeze in a meet and greet before we left. We have a new puppy and 2 indoor cats that he took great care of and the house was left in great condition. He communicated with us throughout our time away and sent us pictures of our pets.

I had a really great experience with Joseph watching my pets. He was super friendly and easy to communicate with, which made everything so simple. He was also very flexible with my pets' dietary needs, which I really appreciated. My cats and dog were clearly comfortable and well taken care of. I loved getting the updates and photos while I was away—it really put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely be booking him again and would recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter.

Joseph took excellent care of my 2 kittens, as well as my home and garden. He went above and beyond as a house sitter and I highly recommend him for any pet care needs.

Joseph was great with my dogs. They liked him. He kept me updated on how things were going. I will have him stay with them again.
