Trusted Pet Care: Love & Expertise
Hello! I’m a dedicated and experienced pet care provider specializing in dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so I’m no stranger to their needs and personalities. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds like Chihuahuas and Dachshunds to large breeds like Cane Corsos and Great Pyrenees. I also have two cats of my own that I love and cherish, giving me firsthand knowledge of the care and attention cats require. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve worked with turtles, tortoises, bunnies, reptiles, and more. Whatever type of pet you have, I’m here to provide compassionate, tailored care. Knowledge and Experience with Reactive Dogs I have gained a lot of knowledge and experience caring for reactive dogs over the years. I understand their unique challenges and know how to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s working on walks, hikes, or easing them into interactions with new people or environments, I’m here to provide patient and understanding care. Dog Walking & High-Energy Dogs Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely stroll or needs an intense workout, I’m up for the challenge! I offer: • Long Walks: Perfect for dogs who thrive on extended outings. • Running or Hiking: For high-energy dogs, I’m happy to run with them or take them on miles-long hikes—no distance is too far! House Sitting & Drop-In Visits When you need someone to care for your pets while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I offer: • House Sitting: Overnight stays to keep your pets safe and comfortable in their own home. • Drop-In Visits: Quick check-ins to ensure your pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention. Medication Administration & Pet First Aid I have experience administering medication to dogs, cats, and other animals, ensuring their comfort and safety throughout the process. Additionally, I have basic knowledge of animal first aid and can handle minor emergencies with calm and care.

Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I ensure your pets receive the highest quality of care, focusing on keeping them active and engaged throughout the day. This includes fun activities such as playing with their favorite toys, taking leisurely walks or invigorating runs, and visiting the dog park for socialization and exercise. For more adventurous pets, I can explore hiking trails to stimulate their senses and keep them physically active. Beyond physical activity, I prioritize your pet's emotional well-being by providing ample affection and attention. I take the time to understand your pet's personality and preferences, tailoring our time together to suit their needs. Whether it's training exercises, or interactive play, I strive to create a nurturing environment that makes your pet feel happy and loved.
Ratings and reviews
Joshua was great!! He instantly had karma with our 2 Basenji's. He was VERY professional in all aspects. This was the first time away from home for us with these 2 dogs and Joshua gave us daily updates with pictures daily, and sometimes multiple times in the day. We were nervous with it being the first visit away and we were very happy that Joshua was with them. We will for sure request Joshua's services in the future and give him the highest rating possible. Thank you Joshua, Chris & Annette
I’ve booked Joshua multiple times now because he’s the best at what he does. Really great with the pets, knowledgeable, and a great communicator. Plus he takes the best photos! 10/10 ⭐️ highly recommend!
So grateful for Josh. Took such good care of our Curtis! Can’t find a better rover!
Josh stayed at our house and took care of our 3 massive dogs… when we came back after a week everything was clean and tidy. But most of all, our dogs were so happy and looked well taken care of. Will definitely rebook in the future. Thank you again Josh!!!
Joshua did an amazing job house sitting and caring for our two dogs (a 6-month old puppy and an 8-year old doodle). Managing our puppy can be challenging, but Joshua handled it with ease. He took both dogs on plenty of walks, followed all of our instructions, and kept us updated with regular activity reports and lots of pictures. He even left our place looking cleaner than when we left. We would gladly have Joshua look after our home and dogs again
We love Josh, but we’re even more happy that our kitties do! Communicative, keeps our place spotless, sends the sweetest pics of our babies! We’ve used him in the past & will continue to be a repeat family! Thank you once again, Josh!
