Pet Experience You Can Count On
Pet care experience
I have 30+ years of pet care experience with both cats and dogs. I started when I was nine and have not stopped since. My experience ranges from adolescents to seniors. This includes any specifics with feeding time down to medications.
Reviews
Joshua did a great job. He sent me pics and updates which I really appreciated. He also spent a lot of time with my fur babies as he knew I don’t like leaving them alone for long periods of time.
Joshua stayed with our babies almost the whole time and I knew they were being well cared for.
About Joshua R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is key for everyone. For my home, I have a big backyard with an 8ft high privacy fence. All gates are kept locked when pets are playing outside to prevent them from being opened. Pets are monitored during playtime to make sure everyone is having a good time and no one gets hurt. If required crating is provided. Especially if they sleep better in a crate as some pets prefer to have their personal space. Different rules apply when housesitting and this is dependent on each home. All rules and care instructions are followed for the safety of myself, but more importantly, for the safety of the pets in my care.

Information Joshua R. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any medications or behavioral issues. I will try to accommodate to the best of my abilities so that your pet is taken care of, but please note I do not have experience with injectable medications at this time.
A typical day
Activities depend on the pet. For high-energy pets walking and play time is always a plus. I take my pets to Woodlawn Lake or let them play out in our big backyard. For low-energy or senior pets walking still helps, but I find that sometimes it's as simple as spending time with them on the couch and watching a movie or outside on the patio on nice days.

Availability
I do work from home, but this makes for a better experience for all pets in my care. I live only a few blocks away from a local park, so going to play or for a walk is never an issue. I am not alone with the care of your pet either as my spouse helps out with any needs they require.
