Highlights
Pet care experience
Active and responsible sitter
I've been fortunate enough to grow up around dogs. I regularly look after our family dog and have plenty experience with high energy working breeds. Particularly Border terriers and their escape artist tricks! I will provide a loving and caring environment for your furry family member as I would with my own family pets.

Ratings and reviews
Bailey really settled in great with Josh. She got taken out for walks and got plenty zoomies in, being a whippet this is her favorite pastime. I would not hesitate to book Josh again very reliable.
Great sitter, my Gizmo didn’t want to come back with me and preferred to stay, which says it all really! Also very accommodating as I had to make last minute changes to the booking after the drop off. 100% recommended and will use Josh again.
Rudy loves staying at Joshuah's — he's always very well exercised and comes home very happy!
Joshuah took great care of Kobbie! He was very welcoming and handled Kobbie’s high energy well. He took him out for a walk even when the weather was rubbish and sent updates/pics throughout the weekend. Would definitely recommend :)
Fantastic experience. Great communication throughout. Our dog loved staying with Josh. Would highly recommend.
Josh and I connected at the begging of 2025 as I was looking for a a dog sitter to look after my Border Terrier Ted. Since then, Josh has looked after Ted a number of times and Ted absolutely loves staying with him! He gets lovely long walks and runs, and is very well looked after every time he stays. Josh is a friendly and caring guy who clearly is very dog friendly!

Schedule
I'm currently finishing my masters degree and transitioning back to work. My schedule is pretty flexible right now but I'm unable to book months in advance as I generally work away. When I'm not at work, dogs will have plenty of opportunities for walks and play throughout the day!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an ideal location within walking distance to Longsands beach, Northumberland park and traffic free walking routes. My flat is ground floor and I have a secure backyard for which I have sole use of. Your dog will be allowed free roam of the flat. My flat is a quiet environment so is ideal for nervous dogs. Due to my schedule I'm able to walk during quieter times of the day. I'm happy to go running with a dog if that is something that is suitable or spends a few hours on the beach playing fetch. I'm pretty active so will always ensure your dog has plenty of exercise opportunities. I will only look after 1 dog or dogs from the same family at a time. If your dog like company I can also introduce them to our working cocker who loves to play.
A typical day
A typical walk would include the beach and a walk through the park. At home I will play tug of war, chase and stimulate your dogs senses with scent games.
