Reliable and Trustworthy Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I'm 24 years old and had dogs since I was 7 years old. I've been a caretaker in making sure they have regular potty breaks, feedings and walks. I'll follow whatever schedule you set for me and work my schedule around it, I'm very flexible. I'll play with your dogs till they tire out and want to relax and cuddle them and let them be a lap dog even if they're not a lap dog. They'll have my full attention. I've had 3 dogs under 20 pounds and can hold my own with a big 100 pounder. My first dog passed away from old age and learned to care for her in her senior years. I now have 2 rescues that I have had to administer oral and ear medications to. I'm very clean and orderly in my homemaking and I'll be sure to clean up after myself and I'd be a very grateful guest in your home making sure that it looks exactly the same as it did when you left.

Loved having Joshua stay with my Bennie boy! He kept me in the loop the whole time and was very sweet to him and sent lots of pictures. Communication was wonderful and he was very flexible with the scheduling!

Joshua did a great job taking care of our dogs. We came back to a clean house and a couple of happy boys.

Safety, trust & environment

I love dogs and try to keep my home as safe as possible. I keep my trash hidden in a closet or cabinets and I make sure nothing small is left close to the ground. I also do not feed dogs, "people" food because I do not want to form bad habits or begging in my dog or others dogs! I try to keep an eye and ear out for when a dog needs to go outside, and I like to keep dogs on a schedule to prevent incidents in the home!

Information Joshua K. would like to know about your pet

I want to know how many dogs, age, and size, and if there are any special care needs. I've worked with dogs with limited mobility as well as tumors who need extra care!

A typical day

I'll take them to a nearby park and walk/hike a nearby trail - weather permitting - and even bathe them if need be! If there's a dog park you like I'll take them there as well and let them mingle with the other dogs! I'll walk your dog, play with toys, and overall just love your dog as if they were my own!
