Experience with medium/big breeds

Pet care experience

My first dog was Ihan, a labrador retriever that I trained to win 1st place in an obedience competition. His favorite activity was swimming at the beach and taking sun baths. He lived 16 wonderful years and I learned to take care of senior dogs with hip and dietary problems. I also have recent experience with puppies as my brother got Enzo, an Aussie, that I often take care of. Enzo loves going to the beach, pool, and playing fetch. Most recently I became a Kylo’s parent, he is my girlfriend’s goldendoodle service dog which lives in her place but I regularly visit and take care of him. He is a social butterfly and we enjoy going the dog park, walking around patterson park, going in roadtrips, playing in the sand, and swimming.

Josh was wonderful! My first time using the app, so I was a little nervous to leave my dog in the care of someone new while out of town. But Josh sent so many updates and photos of my dog having the BEST time on his walks 😊 I’ll definitely be using Josh to care for my pup again in the future 🐾

We were nervous about leaving Bruce since it was our first time going somewhere he couldn't come with us, but Josh was wonderful and really loved Bruce and it made us feel so much better! We got daily updates, and Bruce seemed to be so happy in all the pictures! We will definitely be rebooking if we need to travel again!!! We could really tell how much Josh loves dogs, and really cared for Bruce during his stay, we can't recommend him enough!

Safety, trust & environment

I grew up seeing dogs as another family member. I would listen to your preferences on how your dog likes sleep whether in his own bed, crate, or my bed. I would also take care of your preferred meal, play, and potty times. I have a fenced yard and live one block away from patterson park so your dog would get plenty of outside time. I also own a car, so I could pick up or drive to your place to drop off your dog. My girlfriend is currently living in Puerto Rico, so Kylo, our doodle is not regularly at my place (we take turns in visiting each other once a month) so your dog would have all my attention as I would only commit to take care of 1 dog or dog family per time.

Information Josh G. would like to know about your pet

I would adjust to your dog’s needs. If you prefer not going to a dog park, I would take your dog to exercise somewhere else. If you need your dog’s hair to be brushed daily I can do that (have experience with doodles and Aussies). Let me know what treats do you prefer to give your dog, etc.

A typical day

A typical day would be going for a morning walk around patterson park, playing inside my house, cuddling while watching a movie, going for an afternoon walk to the dog park or the bayside, having a meal, and resting.

I currently work full time as a graduate student, which gives me flexibility to take care of your dogs. For walks and play visits, I am flexible any day. For overnight sits, I prefer to do weekends but we could work something out during the week if necessary.
