Information Joshua M. would like to know about your pet

If boarded that they would be staying with our good boys Brodie and Tyson who both love to play and both love making new friends!

A typical day

My wife and I love keeping dogs active and happy! We’ll go on long walks around the neighborhood, explore local parks, play with toys/play fetch and of course enjoy plenty of belly rubs and cuddles. If your pup enjoys it we can also run together or play games to keep their minds engaged!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m Josh - a lifelong dog lover with my wife Sam and our two good boys, Brodie (Rhodesian Ridgeback, 3 years old) and Tyson (Catahoula, 1 year old). Our house is full of wagging tails, kisses and plenty of zoomies! I’ve had a dog since four years old so caring for furry friends is second nature to me. I’m super active - ran the South Boston Sprint a triathlon and play sports every week - so if your pup loves walks, runs, or playtime - I’m your guy! Since I work from home and same thing with my wife, I’ve got a very flexible schedule and can give your dogs the attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with and always happy to answer any questions or chat about your pet’s routine.

Josh took excellent care of our dog. This was our 3rd time with Josh caring for her and she was very excited to see him. You’ll be in great hands with Josh!

Josh watched Cody and somehow managed to run a five-star dog resort complete with adventure excursions, paparazzi-level photo updates, and customer service that rivaled a luxury concierge. Cody came home looking like he had just returned from a wellness retreat and now appears to expect this level of treatment as his new baseline. Use caution booking Josh: your dog may come back judging your parenting standards.

Josh took such great care of Foxy while we were away. He sent tons of pictures and updates, took her on lots of walks, and it was obvious Foxy was having a great time. He even tucked her in with blankets for bed time. Josh was also super responsive and easy to communicate with. We’d definitely have him watch Foxy again!!

Joshua is a fantastic dog-sitter! He has a very warm, welcoming personality and he took very good care of my fur baby while I was out of town. Would highly recommend!
