Upon first meeting your pet, I have a detailed list of questions and follow your instructions meticulously. I will provide as many updates and pictures as you like. I understand that leaving your pet with someone can be difficult and for the entire time I am caring for your pet, I want you to know that your pet is happy and is in loving hands. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex. I have a good-size two-bedroom apartment with easy access to take your dog outside whenever needed. The complex has an fully enclosed dog park, several open fields, and walking paths. There is also a doggie bath station available. If invited to your home, I will treat everything with respect. I recognize that it is your home and that your pet is most comfortable in that space. I will do everything to make sure everything is as you left it.

Upon first meeting your pet, I have a detailed list of questions and follow your instructions meticulously. Please let me know about any special needs, special toys, or activities that they love. I also want to know about anything that needs to be avoided.

A typical day

I will stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. I love taking walks and am happy to play fetch, go to the dog park, and give belly rubs.

Furry Friends, Loving Care

Pet care experience

With a deep-rooted passion for dogs spanning decades, I bring extensive expertise in canine companionship from puppyhood through senior years. My approach is deeply personal and attentive, recognizing that pets are not just animals, but cherished family members. I pride myself on providing individualized care that honors each pet's unique needs and their owner's specific guidelines. My commitment goes beyond routine care—I treat every dog with the same love, respect, and careful attention I would give to my own beloved pets. Whether nurturing an energetic puppy or supporting a senior dog through their golden years, I ensure comfort, safety, and emotional well-being. My years of hands-on experience have taught me to be responsive, intuitive, and deeply compassionate in pet care. Clients can trust that their furry family members will receive nothing less than dedicated, personalized attention, with every detail carefully considered and every need thoughtfully met.

Joshua was great with our dog and sent plenty of pictures to see her while we were gone. We definitely would recommend and use him again!

We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our dog. Josh communicated very well, sent plenty of pics to let us know our dog was doing great and was ready at time of drop off and pick up. It was a flawless vacation for our puppy and I'm sure we'll be seeing Josh again for another stay.

Josh is the best pet caregiver I have known. He immediately takes to any animal I’ve seen him interact with, and most importantly, they immediately take to him. He has helped me unconditionally in caring for my cat and dog while I’m away, has helped with vet visits and other travel, and treats them as his own. They love to spend time with him. He recently lost his beloved dog of 17 years. My heart breaks for his continued grief for her, & I know he will greatly benefit from connecting with other pets. Any pet owner would be lucky to have their pets cared for by him as he is trustworthy, diligent and incredibly intuitive. His positive energy radiates consistently from him, & he is who these sweet animals need in their lives.
