Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and ensuring a calm, stable environment. I follow all owner instructions carefully regarding feeding, walking, medication, and daily care routines. House sitting includes staying in the home overnight, keeping pets company, and ensuring the property remains secure and well looked after. I take safety seriously, including secure handling of keys, respecting the home, and keeping clear communication throughout the stay. Every pet is different, so I always adapt my approach based on their temperament, needs, and routine.
Information Joshua R. would like to know about your pet
To provide the best care, I ask owners to share key information in advance, including: * Feeding routine and diet * Walking schedule and behaviour on walks * Any medical needs or medication * Behavioural traits or triggers * Emergency contact and vet details * Home access instructions For house sitting, it’s also helpful to know any household routines or preferences so I can maintain consistency while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day depends on the service, but for house sitting it usually includes morning feeding and a walk, companionship throughout the day, and maintaining the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I spend time in the home with the pets, ensuring they are comfortable, relaxed, and not left alone for long periods. Walks, feeding times, and medication (if needed) are all done according to the owner’s instructions. Evenings are generally quiet, focusing on settling the pets for the night and making sure they feel secure before bedtime.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Josh — a trusted, independent house sitter and pet carer based in West Yorkshire. I specialise in in-home pet care and house sitting, meaning your pets stay in their familiar environment while I stay in your home and maintain their daily routine. This includes feeding, walking, companionship, and regular updates so you always know how your pets are doing. I have experience caring for dogs in a range of environments, from everyday family homes to larger properties during extended stays. My focus is simple: provide calm, reliable care so your pets feel safe and your home is looked after while you’re away. I am DBS checked and committed to providing a professional, respectful service for every booking.

Reviews
This dog walking service is top-notch. The walker is always on time and seems to genuinely care for the dogs. My dog gets great exercise and socialization during the walks. Communication is excellent, with regular updates provided. I highly recommend this service to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog walker.
Josh has made me feel so comfortable leaving Diesel with him, he kept me updated how he has been doing including photos which I loved, And my dog absolutely adores Josh So thank you so much for being amazing
Josh stayed at our home with our 2 dogs, Walnut and Whiskey. The sit was for 2 weeks, and we are very pleased with Josh and the care our dogs received from him! He even took them out for adventures around our town, which we know they loved. Upon returning home, our house was well taken care of and our dogs were very happy! We would absolutely love to work with Josh again in the future.
Fantastic experience with Josh - appreciated a meet & greet in advance of the booking and was reassured by his friendliness and professionalism. He kept us updated during the drop in visit, with pics and messaged afterwards to let us know how it all went. Our dog Rudy was very happy and tired out from his walk with Josh. We'd definitely book again! Thank you.
