Pet care experience
I've had pets for most of my life, I spent 20+ years in the Pet Industry taking of a wide variety of animals from dogs and cats to tarantulas and salt water fish. I've been living and working on a farm for 10 years, taking care of my own animals, and am no stranger to larger farm animals. I also currently volunteer at the Woodland Park Zoo, using my accumulated animal knowledge to educate guests and patrons.
Reviews
Josh was very prompt and gentle with both my Hack Russel’s. I would definitely have him come back
Josh is one of the kindest people I have ever known. He has 20+ years of experience caring for animals, and I trust him 100% with my own pets. He is responsible, honest, and intelligent. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Josh is an amazing guy. He has tons of pet experience and it showed. He made my bearded dragon and myself very comfortable. He is so knowledgeable I still contact him with my questions. I would hire him every time. Thanks josh
Josh has been a model care giver for dogs for as long as I've known him. He has provided exceptional care and training for our dog when we were neighbors and regularly relied upon him to help with our animals. I've seen his capacity for patience and thoughtfulness when training dogs on his own to try and improve their behaviors. His attentiveness, patience, and calm demeanor are a huge part of the reason he's able to be so successful with the animal he interacts with. His time spent working as part of the management team at a pet store has dramatically enabled him to understand what's best for pets and how to explain that to the people looking for their care. His knowledge and experience will benefit him greatly as he looks to expand out to a broader animal care role within Rover.

My clients pets are their family, when I come to your home, I will take care of your animals as you request I do. I've always been comfortable around a variety of animals, and have decades of experience dealing with things from excitable pitbulls to angry parrots. My home is unfortunately not available to board animals, while my terriers love people, they're intimidated by other dogs, and there's no reason to give any animal undo stress at a time where you're not with them, their most trusted person
Information Josh H. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know if your pet has a favorite toy, or a style of play or interaction that they best connect with. I'd also really appreciate knowing any no-no spots or anything they don't apricate, I'd hate to do anything to make them distrust me
A typical day
All pets are different, some dogs love playing fetch, others just like to take walks. Some cats just want to nap, others need interactivity via toys or lasers. I'd love to know what your pet enjoys doing, and I'll meet their needs and wants!

Availability
I'm a full time artist, and work on my own farm including 30+ hens, 2 terriers, 3 cats, 2 shubunkins and a uromastyx. I've often time found myself going out of town, and in need of someone like me to pop in now and again and take care of things while I'm gone, I'm hoping I can be that for someone else in need
