Cedar Rapids Pooch Pal!

Pet care experience

I have been raising, training and loving dogs my entire life. I have a medium sized fenced in yard, and can accommodate special requests. I have a 4 year old border-collie/lab mix named Mira. Mira is great with dogs of all sizes, as well as people. While you are away, you can ensure that your pet will be in a safe, fun and responsible environment! I am available almost every weekend, with very flexible hours, and although I work during the week, I can usually accommodate service requests before, during and after work. My passion is working with dogs. Although its tough on them when their best friend goes out of town or needs to run errands, our puppy paradise will help make that time fun for your canine companion!

Josh will always be my go-to provider as long as he's in this business. Communication is great, lots of pics, and it's easy to tell he really takes great care of my dog.

As usual Josh was a phenomenal caretaker for my dog. Above and beyond, immediate contact and pics of her entire stay.

Our German Shepherd, Bash, had the best time with Josh! With German shepherds having anxiety, we didn’t want to board him at a kennel and I was nervous about leaving him somewhere he didn’t know, but he came home the happiest puppy! We got tons of pictures and Bash has barely left the couch because he’s been so tired from running around and playing at Josh’s house. Josh made us feel comfortable and worry free about leaving Bash with him over Christmas. I can’t even express how much it means knowing our puppy is being taken care of so well. Highly recommended. Thank you!!

Can’t thank Josh enough for the outstanding job with my black lab. Josh is professional and caring. He sent texts/pictures throughout the stay. He did great assuring my dog was safe and happy during the stay.

Information Josh K. would like to know about your pet

I ask that each owner provides the name, breed (if possible), gender, and dog's social habits around other dogs and people. Additionally, given how busy our Rover schedule has become, I ask all owners to be specific about their pick up and drop off windows. These can be discussed in person, and I am very flexible, but it is important that we prepare our home (more importantly where all of the pups are), before owners arrive. Good communication is vital and very much appreciated!! :)

A typical day

Depending on the weather, and each owner's preferences, we enjoy setting up the dog pool, going on walks around the neighborhood and walking around the park.
