Observant, empathetic dog lover

Pet care experience

I inherited a troubled pup when I lived in Seattle, helped her get socialized better through reading, learning and practicing a range of techniques to better understand and meet her needs. She is still living happily out west, and I'm hoping to find some new furry friends to hang out with since I work flexible hours from my (unfortunately pet free) home in Columbia Heights. I'm a very present, observant and empathetic person, both with humans and canines. Maybe your dog and I would get along well while you're at work or out of town?

Josh has been our regular walker for a month now, and our puppy is thrilled to see him each time and very happy when we return from home each evening. Josh is very considerate of the training and walking routine we are trying to establish, and overall is a kind, friendly, responsible and reliable pet companion. Thanks Josh!

I wish I there were ten stars to give to Josh! He has been a lifesaver for me and my husband. With less than 3 days notice, Josh agreed to be our M-F dog walker for over a month when I needed to return to work and couldn't find alternate support for our dog, Ollie. The entire time he sent me pictures, notes, and text message updates. He went above and beyond the call of duty and made sure Ollie always had a great break - he took her to the dog park some days, to Rock Creek Park to explore on others, and even took her to a field by our house to play with her favorite ball. Josh is easy to communicate with, extremely thoughtful (one day when Ollie outdid herself, Josh stayed with her to make sure she had plenty of water and was able to calm her breathing down; on days it was raining, he would text and ask where he could find a towel in the house to dry her off; etc.), and Ollie loved him. She was very well taken care of and we will use him again in the future, without question. Ollie is finally enrolled in her new daycare but we'll be reaching out to Josh any time we need help again. THANK YOU ENDLESSLY, JOSH!

Josh is an excellent caregiver and animal lover. He and my pup Gus were instantly best buds! I highly recommend him as a dog sitter.
