Safety, trust & environment
My studio apartment is small, I live on a first floor apartment with only one set of stairs to the exit. Also an elevator to the base floor is available without requiring need for steps if necessary.
Information Joshua S. would like to know about your pet
I love almost any and every dog, I put my heart into creating a bond not only with the owners, but with the pet themselves. I have cat/dog sat for many families. I have NEVER had a bad review I am aware of. If you find no one can help sit for you, I am a fantastic nanny of sorts.
A typical day
Quite often I am a very calm person. Not moving around too often to create unwanted anxiety to pets that may not be used to that. I love to cater the pets needs, to a degree. I will not go for 30 walks a day just because the pet wants it. I will not over feed the pet just because they want it. I follow the owners instructions, if you require that much attention I am willing.

I haven’t met the pet who hates me.
Pet care experience
I’ve had a dog growing up my whole life, I’ve never been bit by a dog or have ever had a negative experience with a dog. I understand that while it is a major part of your family it is still an animal no matter what. I’m not going treat it like a fur baby cuddle toy. They will be loved and cared for. My word. I understand in this current economy that pet care is sometimes too expensive for the care. I prefer to think of my pet care to be similar to private, more, one on one care. I give your pet(s) my whole attention.
Reviews
Great meeting Josh and having him watch our Walter, especially cuz it was last minute! Will use again. He was very flexible.
Joshua saved me in a pinch- booking with a few days notice. Joshua’s communication was very clear with exceptional clarification about details of the stay. My dog was comfortable at drop off and pick up. Overall, pleased with my experience.
Joshua did a fantastic job watching our dog Norm in his apartment for 9 days. Norm is a senior, special needs, anxious dog and Joshua was incredibly accommodating and flexible to make sure Norm was well cared for. I felt most re-assured that Norm was in good hands and we appreciated the pictures and updates! Wouldn’t hesitate to book Joshua again.
Joshua was a great sitter for my dog Blu. He was very communicative throughout the day, and responded very quickly whenever I’d reach out. I felt very reassured that Blu was in good hands whenever he was with Joshua. Joshua was also very kind and understanding with last minute changes in my drop off and pickup times. I would absolutely rebook with Joshua and recommend him as a dog sitter.
