Pet care experience
I grew up with a Golden Retriever, Sonya, and was very attached to her. I helped with house training as well as basic command training (sit, lay down, fetch, etc.). We used a treats, petting, and playing with toys as a rewards system to help encourage her learning. She was a wonderful dog and I have many happy memories with her. As your dog sitter/walker, I will give your dog my undivided and supportive attention. I will walk consistently, play with, and talk with your 4-legged family member whenever I am with them. I will leave notes detailing the activity that we did as well as any concerns that may have happened during my time with them. My mission is to treat your dog the way I would treat mine, with respect and admiration so that their time away from you is stress and carefree.
Reviews
I asked Joseph to care for my dog during the holidays and he was able to follow all of the instructions of taking care of him. My dog is a senior mixed breed, with GI enzyme insufficiency and diabetes. So he has a lot going on medically considering he’s taking insulin shot twice a day. Joseph messaged me whenever he has questions about my dog. I was so glad I contacted him to take care of my dog and will recommend him to other dog owners.
Murphy enjoyed his time with Joseph! Joseph was flexible, easy to communicate with and Murphy came back tired- always a good sign! Will definitely book again.

Information Joseph T. would like to know about your pet
As a dog sitter/walker, my biggest concern is your dogs safety. I would need to know of any behavioral concerns (dog aggression, picking up garbage, etc) to keep them safe. I have no breed preferences; I love all dogs!
A typical day
Dogs that I sit/walk will enjoy walks through the neighborhood as well as time at the park. If there is a dog park near a respective home, I would love to let them off the leash, so to speak, and allow them to run and play with other dogs. My primary responsibility is to make sure your dog is safe and happy, so I am open to suggestions, but will also do research on your neighborhood for places to take them.
