Very active flexible schedule!

Pet care experience

I am a personal trainer and the gym I train out of is less than 2 miles from my house. With the schedule I have I am in and out of my house all day so I have plenty of time to spends with dogs and allow for bathroom breaks. I currently do not have any pets but most of my dog experience come from my German Shepherd who I had for 8 years. I did hire a in home dog training service to help me work with him so I am very well versed dog training in general! I was also a military police officer for 8 years and I have some experience working with military working dogs. Big dogs are my favorite but I am a dogs lover in general and any size dog is more than welcome!

Josh did a great job watching our 2 Vizslas and making sure they stayed out of trouble! Was an incident free stay!

Josh did a great job with titan! Not only did he keep titan company/ give him exercise and attention, he also trained titan on how to walk better. When we set up our initial meeting before booking the stay, it was clear that josh was passionate and knowledgeable about caring for dogs. Titan typically takes a few days to recover from being away from home but he was full of energy when I picked him up after his stay. Josh is also very responsive.

Josh was absolutely fantastic. He stayed at our house with our newly rescued German Shepherd and senior collie mix. Both of out dogs have medication needs and generally require some extra flexibility. He left the house neater than he found it and our dogs were super calm and relaxed. We were really dreading this first time leaving the new dog alone and Josh made it a great experience. Thank you!!!

We have used Josh to watch our Cavapoos for 2 years. He treats my dogs as if they were his own, and always goes above and beyond. Josh took care of the dogs when they were puppies, and the first time we left for a week the dogs got anxious. He had to clean up a large mess on the carpet and in the kennel, and I wouldn't have known where it happened if he didn't tell me. The dogs are excited to see him every time walks through the door. Josh has always been very respectful of our home, and I feel extremely comfortable having him here alone. If you are looking for a dog sitter or walker I would highly recommend using Josh.

Information Josh R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about the personality of the dog. I would also need to know of any medical issues. My German Shepherd had many medical issues; so I have no problem administering all kinds of medications.

A typical day

There are many parks and walking trails right across the street from my house. I am also happy to take your dog to the dog park here in Prior Lake as well.
