The best stay for your best friend

Pet care experience

My wife Brianna and I aim to provide the best possible care for your best friend/family member that we can. I know for us, finding the perfect sitter for our dogs is always the most stressful part prior to a weekend getaway or vacation because you want the best for your fur babies! By booking with me, I alleviate all the worries the comes with handing your family member over to a complete stranger. I provide daily updates and photos and even FaceTime to allow for a worry free experience. Apart from my full time job as a correction officer and my wife being a work from home mom taking care of our son, we wouldn’t trade dog sitting for the world. Being able to provide my services is the most pleasurable experience I can receive to alleviate the daily stress from the negative environment I work in. No matter the age, size or demeanor you can rest assure you will have a pawsitively wonderful experience by allowing us to take care of your pets needs. My wife is able to administer any medications your pet may need. And if I’m not home my wife will be. So your pet will never be alone! During the hot summer months we keep the house cold with our central air with access to water all day. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio and looking forward to servicing your pets needs. Rest assure your pet will have the most fun and excitement under this woof!!

My previous boarder canceled and Josh came through on short notice. He gave my dog excellent care and kept me updated on how he was settling in, including sending photos each day. The neighborhood and Josh's yard and home are peaceful, safe and surrounded by nature. His dog Blair is extremely friendly and our dogs happily played together. I would definitely recommend him!
