Pet care experience

I've been around dogs for my whole life and I enjoy playing and simply just being around dogs. I was always drawn by the fact that my dogs love me and I have always stayed true to treating them as I would want to be treated, especially when it comes to other people's schedules that they have with there pets and I have always been a big believer in keeping routine when it comes to myself and the pets as well.

Josh took great care of my dog! He was great at communication and willing to do whatever we asked. I knew my dog was in great hands!

Josh is awesome! He has housesat and watched our 2 doggos on many occasions over the past few years. In a pinch, he has even helped let them out during the day when we couldn't make it home. This fall, our sweet red heeler had to have an elbow surgery, overlapping at a time when our blue heeler/lab was healing a hot spot. Josh took great care of our dogs, keeping up with their medicine routines and updating us on how they were doing. Josh is thoughtful and sends pictures of the doggos while we are gone, too. We are so grateful for the great care he gives to our dogs when we are gone.

I have had Joshua watch and take care of my dogs for years. I have two miniature long hair dachshunds who haves needed special care over the years. They are currently 17 and 15 years old. They need to be monitored so they use their ramps and don’t jump off furniture. They have to be helped in and out of the house to use the bathroom due to steps. One of the dogs needs daily medication which he has administered many times. I have been gone up to a week at a time, and I never worry about them not being taken care of. One of the other dogs is prone to pancreatitis and has to be taken immediately for treatment. He is reliable and treats my dogs as his own. I highly recommend him and his services.

Safety, trust & environment

I take my dogs out several times a day to play with and enjoy the connection between my pets and myself, extremely rewarding and very comfortable with all types of pets.

Information Joshua W. would like to know about your pet

The biggest thing I want to make sure multiple times is that if the dog(s) I'm watching requires medication I like to be able to help administer the medication with the owner the day before beginning to watch a dog or whatever other crucial needs that are required for a specific dog.

A typical day

I like to begin by letting them outside and then I get breakfast and if required medication ready and then throughout the day I enjoy playing ball or simply just interacting with them and making sure that I keep them stimulated for the better part of the day and usually after dinner time I normally go out and play with them and afterwards I begin to get ready for later evening and bedtime.
