Dedicated pet lover, happy to help

Pet care experience

I've taken care of and trained both dogs and cats from baby to adult, including pets with special needs (including older pets that need extra help moving around, giving medications, and dogs with some temperamental issues)

Josh was a wonderful sitter for my dogs! He was dependable, caring and willing to take on a job that may have been difficult in that one of my dogs did not do well with new people! For once I went on a vacation with an immense load off my shoulders! Great job!!!!

Went away for work a couple weeks unexpectedly, and family wasn’t around to watch my dog Mattis. Josh fortunately was able to step in and help me out. Fed him, walked him, played fetch and most importantly Mattis liked him. He also fed the cat. Would definitely call again next time I go anywhere and can’t take my pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fnced in yard, and a 2 year old husky mix who loves to play. He does very well playing with dogs the way they play with him, but does have a lot of energy. There is also a cat in the house, but he tends to stay away from unfamiliar dogs regardless of whether they like cats or not.

Information Josh A. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs or important temperment information would be great. Preferred treats or toys would also be great to know beforehand!

A typical day

I know of a few dog parks and dog friendly parks for any pups that enjoy a social environment on walks, however we can also go around the pups neighborhood, play outside with toys, or anything else the pup loves to do
