Pet care experience
Dog lover wants to pamper your pup!
I've always had a dog in my life and can't see that ever stopping. My ring bearer at my wedding was my childhood dog/best friend. I've taken care of numerous furry friends and treat every four legged animal that stays in our house as one of my own. I only take 1-2 dogs at a time so your pup will receive the attention he/she deserves.

Ratings and reviews
This was Tofu's second time staying with Joshua and Loki, and we are just as happy with the experience as we were the first time. Joshua went above and beyond to make sure Tofu was well cared for and loved. We especially appreciate the daily photos and updates. Seeing Tofu happy and relaxed made us glad we chose Joshua again. We will definitely continue booking with him because we trust that Tofu is always in the best hands.
Lots of updates and took her to the dog park multiple times
Joshua is fantastic! He’s watch Kolsch a few times now and she always is so happy to spend time with him and Loki. I get plenty of pictures and updates. There was some really hot days during this stay and Joshua was mindful of making sure Kolsch was getting enough exercise still but not overheating, and sent me updates on how she was doing. Kolsch loves Joshua and has a blast every time she stays with him - and I know he is taking very good care of her :)
Josh and Loki were excellent hosts. We got regular updates with photos and videos so we could see all the fun adventures they were going on. This is the longest we have ever left our dog and we felt totally confident that she was being taken care of well.
Joshua is fantastic! He’s watched Kolsch a few times now and she always gets so excited when she realizes she gets to go stay with Josh and Loki. Kolsch is a high energy dog and always gets tons of exercise and love.
Keith loves it here! He comes home so tired from playing with Loki and getting lots of walks and dog park time. He will be excited to go back!

Schedule
I work around 5 hours a day so I have plenty of time for walks, play time and cuddles. A friendly house dog will keep your dog company while the house is empty of humans (which is very rare). I walk for a living and that doesn't stop when I get home so your dog will get plenty of time outside.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a decently large fenced in backyard and a built in friendly dog to keep your pet entertained. Gates are super secure with no possible escape and plenty of shade and covered areas to get out of the sun. Water dishes will always be filled with fresh water to keep everyone hydrated. Large swaths of green space encircle where we live so the walks are always a unique adventure.
Pets
A typical day
Ball tossing, long walks, dog park visits (if you approve), cuddles, constant conversations, and lots and lots of play time with me and my pal, Loki. We try to be very active with any of our guests and will stimulate your dog with problem solving activities and tricks.
