Availability
I am almost always home unless I'm walking a dog, getting groceries, or at the gym for about an hour 1-2 times a week. Mostly work out at home. Full time dog trainer @ home. Depending on the dog(s), kennels may be used for safety purposes or adjusting dog to schedule(bed time/nap time/dinner) friendly dogs obviously get the most freedom.

Safety, trust & environment
My shepherd can play with any dog, besides aggressive dogs obviously. He has helped socialize and teach dogs to play. Sometimes need to keep big dogs and small dogs separate, but often it's okay.

Professional dog trainer(schooled)
Pet care experience
Best care for your dog + pictures! I have trained dogs of all breeds and temperaments as a professional dog trainer. I feel this is another way to introduce myself and help people who want their dog to have a home away from home. If you consider your dog high maintenance or a handful, don't worry about it. If you have had bad past experiences, welcome. My goal is to always have a structured routine so the dog can adapt to the schedule, develop a good relationship with the dog, and add any structure to the life of the dog and the owners if I can. A balanced dogs is friendly, playful, able to control themselves, listens when given a command, and likes to work for treats/toys. I see this as the ideal dog that people envision and I help people reach that goal.
Reviews
We gots tons of photos and Grayson had his first socialization experience with other dogs. After staying just two nights, came home walking on his leash noticeably better. Good first time boarding experience with a little puppy training thrown in.
Josh gives Echo premier care and attention no matter how many dogs he’s watching. Echo can’t wait to see Josh when I drop him off!
Our 4-month-old, high-energy puppy stayed with Josh and had such a good time! She was happy and healthy when we came to get her.
Josh always takes great care of Thor, whenever we go away I know he’s in good hands and having a great time! Thank you, Josh!
