I feel very comfortable leaving my doing Reina in Joseph's care. He understands her personality and works with her to get her comfortable. He sent us regular pictures that showed a happy pet!

Joe was amazing! My pups were in good hands! I went on vacation for about a month and I came back home with happy dogs! I was scared in the beginning for leaving my dogs as boarding since this was my first time. However, I felt so at ease during my trip because of Joe. I was able to video call my dogs. Every time, I video call my dogs, they looked happy! I recommend Joe!

Schedule

I do have a regular part-time job that requires 20-30 hours of my time a week (usually 5-8 hour shifts). However, I do have sporadic days off throughout the week. I am more than happy to share my work schedule with you before confirming the booking. Despite my work schedule, when you book with me, your pet becomes my priority! I will be sure to get what is required for your pet done before and after my work shift: walks, food, medication, love ❤️, etc.

Safety, trust & environment

I live alone in a two bedroom townhome. I do not have a private yard, but I live in a safe and clean neighborhood with plenty of parks nearby and a sunny balcony for sunshine fueled naps. I am just fine with animals sleeping on my couch or bed. (I’m also pretty heavy handed when it comes to treat giving 😀)

A typical day

Like most furry friends, I enjoy long walks in beautiful neighborhoods. My neighborhood is not only pretty, but also has an onsite dog park. I also live around a few public parks I can take your pet to (if you’re comfortable with me doing so, of course). I love a good game of fetch or tug of war. Don’t worry, I’ll be sure to let your pet win 😉
