Availability
Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as a student massage therapist. My schedule is flexible, with night classes on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Occasionally, I have weekend classes from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, but these are intermittent. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and attentive care for your pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening care, I can easily accommodate your pet’s routine around my class schedule.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client's home, safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are my top priorities. I ensure that your space is respected and maintained while providing consistent and attentive care for your pets. I follow your specific routines and preferences to minimize stress and maintain a sense of consistency for your pets. This includes adhering to feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any other special care instructions you provide. I supervise all activities, ensuring your pets are safe and comfortable at all times. I’m respectful of your home, treating it with care and leaving it as tidy as I found it. To keep you at ease, I provide regular updates with check-ins, photos, and videos, so you’re always informed about how your pets are doing. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for your pets in their familiar surroundings, ensuring they feel comfortable and well-cared-for while you’re away.
Information Joshua M. would like to know about your pet
Understanding your pets' unique needs is essential for providing the best care. Please share any important details about their daily routines, such as feeding schedules, exercise preferences, and favorite activities. It’s also helpful to know about any medical conditions, allergies, or medications they may require, as well as their behavior around other animals and new people. If your pet has any specific likes, dislikes, or triggers that could cause anxiety or stress, please let me know so I can ensure their experience is as comfortable and positive as possible.
A typical day
I love keeping pets engaged and happy with a variety of fun activities tailored to their personalities and energy levels. Whether it's going for long walks, playing fetch, or exploring the neighborhood, I make sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. For more relaxed pets, we might enjoy some cuddle time, gentle play, or interactive toys that keep them mentally stimulated. My goal is to ensure that each pet feels entertained, loved, and well-cared-for during our time together.

Pet care experience
Since 2013, I’ve been volunteering at no-kill animal shelters, where I’ve gained hands-on experience in managing and caring for a variety of animals. I have professional experience working at a boarding facility handling up to 8 dogs at a time in a pack setting, ensuring harmony and safety within the group. Additionally, I’ve administered medications and provided nutrition to up to 60 dogs at a time in a boarding kennel environment. My background equips me to handle a wide range of pet care needs, from managing large groups to providing individualized attention and care.
Reviews
Joshua took great care of Yeti, sent us photos and videos every day and also took care of our other critters (2 turtles and a tarantula). We would definitely have him pet sit for us again.
Another great experience, I appreciated the videos, it’s always good to know that my little guy is well taken care of!
Joshua was so sweet with our pups! He spent lots of time with them and sent us pictures and videos while we were away. He left our house clean and we would love to have him watch our dogs and house again!
Joshua was great with our big kids! They can be a bit apprehensive of new people but his calm approach helps ease their anxiety. He was respectful of our home and took great care of everything. We would love to have him back again for our next outing.
