Information Naotake I. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for pets, we like to know their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medical conditions, quirks, and comfort items. This helps us create a smooth, stress-free, and loving experience. Please let us know ahead of time.

A typical day

Each day includes morning walks, feeding, play sessions, and gentle grooming. Pets enjoy outdoor fun, puzzle toys, and cozy naps with companionship. We ensure they stay active, safe, loved, and joyfully entertained throughout.

Pet care experience

Call me Joe. My wife and I love animals. We’ve cared for pets our entire life—dogs, cats, birds, and even a chameleon. Originally from Japan, we're skilled at training pets through hands-on experience. We're especially patient with puppies and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. A naturally tidy and organized person, we keep your home and pets happy, safe, and cared for. We share responsibilities together. I usually handle the dog walks, while my wife not only helps me, but she also brings comfort to pets.

I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Scamper received! Scamper was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. Thank you for being so wonderful!

Joe was great with our pup Olive, sent lots of pictures and updates and Olive seemed well taken care of when we got back.

Banjo was so exceptionally taken care of! He’s a senior cat who needs meds 2x/day, and he settled right in at Naotake’s place! I loved seeing the pictures and getting a daily report of what he’d been up to.

Maui loved her stay with Naotake! She was well taken care of and Naotake and his wife shared plenty of photos of Maui throughout her stay.
