Work from home dog lover

I’ve been the family designated dog sitter ever since I got a remote job. I grew up with a small poodle and a maltipoo. I’ve dog sat for friends as well. Breeds such as australian shepards,maltiese, pugs, labs, and unverified “mutt”. I love to cuddle with the dogs and taking breaks from my workday to walk the dogs. I’m a great fit if you want someone to stay with the dogs in the environment that they are most familiar with. Leaving your pets can be stressful enough, let them enjoy the comfort and routine of their own home while away.

Safety, trust & environment

I can let the dogs out in the back yard, walk (if they are able to), and can take to nearby dog parks. Usually have all the medicine, food, and supplies labeled and laid out by the owner with written instructions on how to take care of the dogs to reference.

Our two babies (toy poodle and maltipoo) are very needy and Josh did great with them! On multiple occasions we have used him for week long dog sits and each time we have been delighted. He took them for 3 walks daily, spent play time with them, and generally gave the love and attention we would give them ourselves. Our needly little fur babies love him and his service is excellent. We recommend him highly and will use his services again!

Joshua has been absolutely amazing as both a dog walker and dog sitter for my two Australian Shepherds for the past 2 years. Anyone who knows Aussies knows they are intelligent, energetic, and need a lot of attention and engagement and Joshua handles them incredibly well. When I travel, I have complete peace of mind knowing my dogs are in his care. He is extremely conscientious, attentive, responsive, and genuinely cares about their wellbeing. He’s also very proactive and always thinking ahead, which I really appreciate. Whether it’s keeping me updated, anticipating their needs, or making sure everything runs smoothly, Joshua consistently goes above and beyond. Most importantly, both of my dogs absolutely love him, which says everything. It’s clear they trust him and enjoy being around him. I highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and exceptional with dogs.

Schedule

I work from home and can take the dogs out before 8am, during lunch, after work, and before bed. On the weekends, I try not to leave the dogs alone more than 4 hours at a time. I like to confirm with the owners how they navigate dog care and social plans.
