Pet care experience

Josh has worked on a dog ranch, and both Josh and Julie have decades of experience living with and loving dogs of all shapes and sizes. We alternate being home all day, most days of the week. We can arrange to be home during the entire boarding dates booked. We are also happy to board your dog(s) for extended stays. We are on a beautiful, historically protected farm reserve just four miles south of downtown Leesburg. This means nice walks on well cared for trails and fields. We have a very friendly Lab Retriever mix rescue, who loves to make new friends feel welcome. Options for daily runs in our neighborhood, and even a public dog park just a five a minute drive away.

We left our goldendoodle, Ziggy, with Josh and Julie for the day and we couldn't be happier with their service. They were professional, thorough, and considerate from the start. They asked us about Ziggy's habits, preferences, and needs, and made sure he felt comfortable in their home. They also sent us video and pictures throughout the day to let us know how he was doing, which was very reassuring since he tends to be on the anxious side. Ziggy looked happy and relaxed in every update, and we could tell he was having a great time with Josh and Julie and their other dog. They treated him like one of their own, and we are so grateful for their care and attention. We highly recommend Josh and Julie to anyone looking for reliable and loving dog sitters. They are the best!

We have a 10 year old pup who we have never boarded, but our usual pet sitters have either moved on or no longer available. So we were nervous about boarding her but we found good reviews for Josh and Julie on Rover so we booked a day with them to give it a try and I’m happy that we did! Lily had a great day at their beautiful home with a large fenced yard. It is a home setting and not a kennel atmosphere, which made me feel more confident leaving her there. Josh sent me two videos during the day of her happily running around with their dog Loki. Lily is a bit of an anxious dog at times but when I picked her up at the end of the day, she was her usual happy self. I can see why Josh and Julie have such good ratings. Next step is an overnight but I think we have found our new sitter!

We recently entrusted our beloved pet to Josh & Julie S., and we couldn't be more delighted with the exceptional care and service provided. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of outstanding. They provided outstanding care, understanding our dog's unique needs, preferences, and routines. Regular updates, including photos, videos, and messages, kept us connected and assured that our pet was in good hands. He seemed very happy at their place, which was very unusual in his case. He seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his stay. I wholeheartedly recommend Josh and Julie for anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and top-notch boarding experience for their beloved pets.

Information Josh & Julie S. would like to know about your pet

We love all dogs. We love them so much, that we are very detailed about learning from the owner what may be scary, or extra fun in the eyes of the furry visitor. We like to know the schedule on which you have your dog. We will always strive to match that schedule.

A typical day

We enjoy walks and runs on our paved farm road, fields, woods, and streams! Playing fetch, catch, and tag is popular in our large fenced yard. Nice places to sleep in the sun, both outdoors and indoors. Many petting and playing sessions are easy with a family of five that are studying and working from home. We LOVE dogs!
