I'm a Dog Buddy, a Buddy for Dogs!

Pet care experience

I've been dog sitting and walking for over 15 years. My goal is to care for your pet the same way you would, like they are a member of your family. I have cared for the dogs of dog trainers and lovers up and down the west coast. I love all animals, not just our canine friends, have watched 5 dogs, 2 cats and 3 goldfish simultaneously. Walks with your pets are 30-45 minutes in length and I'm generally at your home 45-55 min. Lots of fun and no worries! Let's rap!

My husband and I needed a dog sitter for about 10 days, and while we used to use dog boarding, it just wasn’t working for our dog Penny - she was too nervous and not sleeping well. We asked Josh to come by, and immediately we felt at ease. He’s incredibly easy-going and friendly, and was so kind to our dog. During the dog/house sitting, Josh sent us a photo every day and let us know that Penny was doing well (she had just been getting over an ear infection). We felt so at ease to know that Josh was taking care of her, which was just what we needed when we were on the other side of the country. When we got home, Josh had made the apartment ready for us (clean sheets, spotless apartment), our building manager talked about how nice he was and how much time he spent with Penny, and most importantly our dog was happy and relaxed. It meant so much to us to come home and see her happy - all thanks to Josh. We will definitely use Josh again!

Above and beyond. Joshua really made extra strides while taking care of my VERY STUBBORN bulldog. I forgot to leave the leash and he happily ran home and got a leash of his own! He was flexible and sweet. Highly recommend Joshua.

Josh is a great caretaker for my dog. Hazel loves him to pieces. She's always super excited to see him. Josh has takes her for walks and also takes care of her on extended overnight stays. He comes up with fun games and does training with her too. He's the first person I call to take care of Hazel because I really trust that she's in good hands with him. Plus I love all the pics and updates he sends when I'm out of town. I highly recommend Josh- he's responsible, considerate and great with animals. Your pup will love him!
