About Joshua B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
While I do not currently offer petsitting at my own home due to my roommates, I understand that every owner's household and every pet is different. I make sure that each of the doors and windows are closed and locked for the pet's safety, unless otherwise specified by the owners. If there are certain rooms or parts of the house off-limits to myself or the pets, I keep us away from those areas for the owner's privacy. And if the pets do tend to make a mess or I use any of the utilities of the home to help clean and take care of the pets, I make sure that everything is turned off and cleaned up afterwards so there are no messes for the owners when they return to their home and beloved pets.
Information Joshua B. would like to know about your pet
I can help take care of animals of different sizes and ages, as well as any old or recent injuries and/or conditions. If I need to wear something in particular or bring something with me to help take care of their pet, I'd appreciate a quick heads up from the owners if they're able.
A typical day
Aside from going on walks or outside in the yards, I'm used to playing with a variety of toys such as ropes, sticks, squeaking toys, laser lights, and other such playthings. If your pet is older or disabled in some way and they can't move around alot, I'm also fine with whatever special activities or games they may instead play.

Short Notice & Special Needs Sitter
Pet care experience
I've had over 20 years of pet care experience, ranging between several different dog breeds and sizes, cats, rodents, reptiles, and even some bird-sitting. I understand each pet is different in their own way, some needing certain medications or volumes of food and water, and other pets are easier to take care of, but their owners need someone last minute to help watch and take care of their beloved pets. I also know when it comes to more than one pet in the household, some pets can get rowdy with each other and may tend to hurt one other, so I'm used to cleaning up after and treating the occasional bites or scratches they inflict. Having to give medications, give special food, and even seeing blood or recent wounds on animals doesn't stop me from providing the care they need while their owners are away at work or vacation or whatever else life has thrown their way. I've been known to be a reliable petsitter by many friends and family members over the years, and I make sure to follow all needs and specifications for each pet, regardless of their age and their size.
Reviews
Awesome job with our two large dogs. Thank you Joshua! Dogs had fun with Joshua, and we returned to find happy dogs and well-ordered house. Hoping to book Joshua again for a January trip.
Joshua did a wonderful job watching our three dogs and cat. We kept in touch while we were away and he was very responsive to our requests. The house was neat and tidy when we returned from our trip. This was our first time using Joshua and we will most definitely consider using him again in the future.
Joshua did a fantastic job. Kept us well informed, made sure our pets were well taken care of. I will be using him again and highly recommend him.
Great job and communication is awesome.
