Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I don't have a private Garden but I have communally shared grounds. Im a stones throw away from Milton common and my two love a walk and a swim. If I am caring for your furry family member at your own home. You can be rest assured I'll treat it with great care. I'll happily sort any accidents and will keep you updated should I find anything troubling to make sure issues can be solved. I regularly come home to torn up letters and the odd toilet roll strewn throughout my flat.

Information Joshua J. would like to know about your pet
If your furry family member has any specific needs or requirements that I need to be made please let me know ahead of time. We can discuss in detail during a meet and greet. My youngest is a bit of a puller unless we have her slip lead a certain way. That's the kind of details I'd like to know. As well as things like how they interact with others. What commands you use to name a few of the top of my head.
A typical day
With my own. We play a scent based hide and seek with their favourite treats. As well as snuffle mats, 5-10mins of training just before a walk gets them focused on me and the treats and makes for a better walk too. We like a long walk down Milton common on a long line if we're hyperactive some days. Finished off with a nice swim down to the sea. We've been using the e-scooters to get a good 5min run into our more time limited walks. (Obviously not for everyone and every pet is different but these are just some examples)

Big or Small, Your Furry friends in capable hands
Pet care experience
We've had dogs in the family since I was a baby. We've had Newfoundlands, Alsatians, Cockerpoos, Staffies and Labs to name a few. I've looked after my own, friends and neighbours pets over the years. Whether whilst on holiday or just popping in to keep them company and make sure they have fresh water and food down whilst they're at work. I did the Duke of Edinburgh award many moons ago but did 3 months at a vets and learnt a lot. I also studied animal management at South downs College, looking after a range of animals and did a 1 month placement on a dairy farm in southwick. So you can trust no matter how big or small your fur baby will be in capable hands. I've generally had all sizes of pets from the types listed above as well as cats, I've also had rodents, horses too. One thing all pets have in common is they love and need some attention so if your furry companion(s) need some TLC whilst you're away. Drop me a message and I'll be happy to help out, however is needed.
Reviews
You can tell immediately that Josh has experience with dogs. He wasn’t phased at all by our 23kg ‘puppy’ who’s common sense isn’t maturing quite as quickly as his body :) Such a relief to have a trustworthy extra pair of hands on call when we need them. We also met Josh’s ‘Margo’ too who’s a lovely and and obedient gal who played well with George. Thanks Josh !
