About
I am man of many hats. Basketball training needed? Pet sitting? Dog walking? Basketball: Beginner? Intermediate? High level high school and college? Let’s get to work! I have been a varsity high school basketball coach for over 12 years, being involved in the development and coaching of over 30 division one basketball athletes in NYC and Westchester. I am very detail-oriented from a developmental standpoint and am motivated to get the best out of each and every athlete I am associated with. I never cut corners and can help in the development of beginners up to high school and college level athletes. Pet Sitting & Dog Walking: I have also been an avid pet lover and provide pet services for several years. Includes dog walking, dog and cat sitting as well. I aim to ensure you are comfortable when away from your pet. I am willing to do walks (long and short), provide pet care at home, daily visits and feedings for cats, and am open to different requests. Please reach out to me as I aim to gain your trust and leave you with the comfortability that you pet is in great hands!

Joe from J's Pet Services is an absolute lifesaver! We hired him to care for our two mini Australian Shepherds for ten days, which included a demanding twice-a-day schedule. Joe was incredibly reliable and did a phenomenal job. The picture updates he sent throughout the week were a wonderful and reassuring touch. We came home to two very happy and well-cared-for pups, and the entire family—kids and dad included ;-)—were incredibly grateful. We can't recommend Joe highly enough!

Details: 2 dogs • 2 - 10 years old • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • 15 minutes • No preference • Feeding • My home, venue, etc.

Joe has been walking my 2 Labradors weekly. They both took to him right away and he has been really great at handling their energy. You can tell that he is experienced with dogs and enjoys spending time with them.

Details: 2 dogs • 2 - 10 years old • Extra large (70+ lbs) • 30 minutes (standard) • No preference • My home, venue, etc.
