Joshua watched Stella for 4 nights. He took wonderful care of her. We had a great experience. He sent daily updates and gave us such peace of mind during my daughter’s wedding week. Reliable, communicative and trust worthy, I truly appreciate all his help and would highly recommend him.

Josh was amazing. I have a small anxious dog and I was worried about how he would do being with a pet sitter for the first time. He did surprisingly well and Josh kept me updated every step of the way. My pup warmed up fairly quickly to him so I was able to relax during my trip. I would definitely use him again!

I highly recommend Joshua for dog sitting services. Joshua has been caring for my Moose for over a year now when I vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Joshua is incredibly reliable, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. He took the time to understand my dog’s needs and provided a safe, fun environment while I was away. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease. The last time I brought Moose to stay with Joshua he couldn’t get out of the car fast enough to see Joshua. Joshua is the perfect choice for your pet!
