Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog's SECOND best friend
I only care for the BEST dogs in Portland. Yours! From the tiniest Chihuahua to the 160lb Great Dane, I take care of them all. I’ve spent the last 9 years walking pullers, sniffers, runners, draggers, puppies, seniors, special needs, mutts, pedigrees all over Portland. I've been doing this long enough to be rated in the top 10% of Rover walkers and I've never had a dog NOT like me. Even the dogs that aren’t usually comfortable with strangers end up in my lap or following me around before too long. I'm that guy that gets excited when the dog at the party comes over to them. I treat every dog I care for as if they were my own and I have a pretty high standard for my own spoiled rotten pooches. Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I also run my own leash manufacturing business. But getting paid to play with and interact with dogs is my dream job. I am also a freelance writer, compiling a list of short stories about how owners met their pets. If you’re interested in participating, let me know when you book me. I have a pretty set stable of clients that I have at daycare on a weekly basis. I’m flexible, though and can usually manage to fit in a last minute request. Multiple walks, plenty of outdoor time in the fenced in yard with my three playful and friendly dogs. Nearby parks and trails also. Lots of interaction, attention, and affection.

Ratings and reviews
Josh was great. Super communicative, attentive. Space is set up perfectly for our senior girl to couch surf, and yard time for our pitty. Dogs looked really relaxed in the photos, came home calm and happy. Would book again.
Josh is a great Rover host. My dog had lots of playmates and came home happy and tired. Recommended!
Thank you!
Josh is incredible. Extremely communicative. Always prompt and on time. Did the absolute most to make sure our pups were listened to and taken care of. He’s Extraordinary kind- we have complete confidence in Josh for our boys future care!
We are new to Rover and needed a petsitter quick. Josh was in our neighborhood and was great. Dogs had a great time and the photo updates showed they were well taken care of.
Josh was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. He sent pictures everyday and sent us updates!1

Safety, trust & environment
I have a six foot fence around my yard, three awesome friendly dogs, and the ability to crate your dog if they need a safe spot to relax and get away from it all. Daily walks, playtimes, and treat breaks are always on the schedule.
Pets
A typical day
I have three amazing dogs that get along with everyone and every dog they’ve ever met. I also have a fenced in yard in a nice neighborhood with a couple of parks and walking trails nearby.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsUnspayed females accepted, neutered males onlyNo females in heatCrate-trained dogs onlyJosh can host up to 5 pets per night
- General disposition, personality, favorite treats and activities, and those special little quirks that make your dog the most loveable furry thing in your life. As well as what triggers they may have. Rest assured that when I walk your dog, I never let them get near other dogs. Regardless of how friendly your dog or the other dog may be, I always cross the street, turn around, or avoid any confrontations with other dogs. Your dog’s health and safety is my utmost concern.
