Experienced shelter volunteer

Pet care experience

I've had multiple dogs and other pets my entire life, and have volunteered or worked at different animal shelters on and off since I was sixteen. I work from my home computer and care for the house while my wife is at her full-time job. Dogs staying with me will enjoy all the spoiling I heap on my own furry family. (I recently finished building a house-wide "kitty road" for my cat to get away from the dogs when she needs to, to give you an idea of how spoiled they are.) Plenty of comfy places to lie down and sleep, plenty of toys and chewing implements, the company of my two active and friendly dogs all under the watchful eye of someone who has cared for as many as fifty dogs at a time. Please note, my house is not large and the backyard is almost non-existant. I can and will gladly take large dogs, but you might want to consider finding someone who can give them more room to run, especially for any long-term stays. I do visit the dog park regularly in good weather. I'm extremely flexible and have experience with just about every sort of canine situation you can imagine. If you require some sort of special service not shown, let me know and we'll almost certainly be able to work something out. I do not require that your dogs be spayed, neutered or otherwise altered. Puppies do not need to be potty trained; however, please let me know if this is the case and provide puppy pads for the duration of the pup's stay. I do require that that they be at least able to tolerate other dogs and are not aggressive towards cats.

Josh is very easy to work with. He's communicative and sends updates about your pet. He's very patient and understanding especially with my 6 month old puppy who is far from perfext. I would book again!

Information Joshua L. would like to know about your pet

I have plenty of experience working with dogs with strange or just bad health conditions; two of my recent stays were an elderly miniature poodle gal who was almost completely blind, and a middle-aged pug that couldn't go to the bathroom by himself. I love them all, and they'll all be well cared-for.

A typical day

I try to get my pack to Newport Dog Park just about every day, usually around the same time in the afternoon. Otherwise, I have two energetic dogs and a playful cat that will keep them entertained.
