The Dog Guy

Pet care experience

Hello, fellow dog owners/parents. Do you have trouble getting your dog the exercise they need? Most people don't realize that a big portion of their dogs issues can be solved by letting your dog get that energy out. Maybe it's destructive house tendencies or Fido is going to the bathroom inside, possible separation anxiety from their parents. Regardless... excising your dog and letting them get out to play and go on a fun adventure can drastically improve the above situations. I am confident in dealing with any dog regardless of attitude, size, or anything really. If your dog is aggressive they will not be allowed to go on group walks, but I will still take them. As you notice with some people who work with dog's there is a "breed bias." Mainly with larger more driven energetic working breeds (Pitbulls, Dogo Argentinos, Malamutes, Shepards, Belgian Malinois, etc...) I believe all dogs deserve a fair opportunity and should be treated with respect regardless of what breed they are. I WILL NEVER TURN DOWN WALKING YOUR DOG FOR CHARACTER REASONS, instead, we will work together to remedy the problems and help your dog out as best as possible. So please give me a chance to love your dog, and provide an awesome service to help your household out. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Hope to hear from you soon! P.S. As well as walks for dogs, I also do group hikes, play sessions (which can include ball throwing, agility exercise, or just going on a jog or bike ride with me.) These are only done with the owner's permission. For more information please inquire. I have experience watching and working with all sizes and breeds of dogs. In my youth, I was the friend, nephew, grandson that was trusted with watching everyone's animals. I have experience rescuing and placing homeless animal's, which has taught me a lot about the different personalities and characteristics of them. Miscellaneous *Dog's will never be left together unsupervised. *When we go for walks and leave the house dogs will not be allowed off leash for any reason. *Dog's are usually very active when with me, we go on multiple park trips, runs, hikes throughout the day (I always take heat and weather into consideration). *I give treat's Watermelon, Carrots and Sweet Potato. If you do not want your dog to have any just let me know. *For those pups who are not as active as their furry compadres, I completely understand and the walks are tailored to their needs. *Dogs are given multiple water break during walk as needed. -Thank You, Joshua,

Joshua was great with our 5 month old labradoodle. This was the first time we left our pup with anyone and Joshua met expectations and more. He truly loves dogs and understand their behaviors. He would send pictures daily and let us know what was on the agenda for the day. I highly recommend him.

Joshua was an amazing sitter for my fur baby Nova! He made me feel very comfortable leaving her while I was away on a trip. He sent me the amount of updates and pictures I requested which put my mind at ease. Nova simply loves him and his two doggies and she had such a great time! We will definitely leave Nova with Joshua again without any hesitation!

Jack loved his stay with Joshua. He got to go for runs and he had a great time playing with Joshua's puppies. I received a lot of pics showing me just what a good time he had. Joshua is super responsive and he made me immediately feel comfortable about leaving Jack in his care. The next time I have to go out of town, I'll be booking with Joshua again for certain.

Information Joshua P. would like to know about your pet

NO BREED PREFERENCES, all dog's are welcome. -Does your dog have a special diet or any allergies? -Does your dog(s) have separation anxiety? -Is your dog potty/house trained? -Does your dog have current vaccines? -Is your dog current with flea/tick medications? -Does your dog have a crate they use? -Does your dog have aggression/possessive issues? -Does your dog have any special needs?

A typical day

Time spent with me just depends on your dog's characteristics, for the active athletic dogs I have plenty of space, energy, and willingness to play, run, and do whatever it takes to have a good time. For the quieter less active dog's I have a very relaxing, quiet, calm home for them to enjoy like their own. I have a fully fenced backyard, with plenty of running room. Back here we like to play fetch, bring out the kiddie pool and toys and let the dogs do their thing. (Dog's will never be left unsupervised!) Every day rain or shine first thing in the morning we do a long walk usually about 2.5 miles (of course I would shorten that walk if a dog wasn't interested in that long of one), most day's we will go to the park for this. We do a similar walk at night when it cool's down. Some of the more active dogs I like to take running with me.
