Dog Pal Here To Help
Pet care experience
I'm a nighttime musician and daytime dog pal. I own a Shepard/Collie mix that's about 2yrs old. She's a super sweet & social rescue from the Austin Humane Society. I grew up in a dog friendly home and have had lots pups throughout my life. I practice redirection and positive reinforcement with treats to shape behavior. I'm still learning new methods everyday with our current rascal. She's got lots of energy and we've been training/conditioning on a variety of scenarios including but not limited to: jumping, leash pulling, car anxiety & separation anxiety. Its hard work sometimes but there's no better feeling than the excitement of a pet eager to see you walk in the door. Giving her a home brings us so much fulfillment. And while the experience is rewarding, it can require some help. I'd like to assist others with this! I can provide dog walking, pet sitting, house sitting, and drop in visits.
Reviews
We can't recommend Josh enough! First off, he's a delightful and interesting guy. Secondly, he's a dog guy - loves the pups and enjoys being with them and caring for them. Third, he gave us the option of his house or ours. We chose ours. Could hardly tell he was here - everything left perfectly tidy. We especially like that he brought his dog over for a backyard playdate with ours (pre-discussed and encouraged on our part) which they loved! We made a good choice by hiring Josh and will certainly do so again in the future.
Josh is a wonderful pet sitter. I tend to have travel anxiety about leaving my home and my pets and he's always very understanding and reassuring. He's everything you'd want in a pet sitter: he's responsible, communicative and loves dogs. Thanks, Josh for always taking such good care of my pets! Bert & Sasha appreciate you too!
Josh was amazing with my pup Ziggy when I needed someone to watch him while I was away for the weekend. I wouldn't hesitate for a minute to a have him walk or watch our pups again.
