Josiah was great and offered last-minute services when my original plans fell through for zazu. Their family took great care of my boy, sent regular pictures, and he came home happy and healthy!

Amazing service! I felt like my dog was very safe the whole time and he made sure to follow of my needs for my dog. Also, really appreciate the fenced backyard as I was struggling to find a sitter.

Josiah is an amazing dog sitter who genuinely cares about every dog he looks after. He is incredibly responsible, trustworthy, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Any pet in his care receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and affection.

Schedule

I'm a University of Michigan student with a flexible summer schedule. Someone is home most of the day, and dogs are rarely left alone, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Dogs will always have fresh water, regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time in our fully fenced backyard, and lots of attention indoors. I follow each owner's feeding, medication, and exercise instructions carefully to help your pet feel right at home.

Pets

A typical day

Your dog will enjoy a fun, relaxed day with plenty of attention and exercise. We’ll start with a morning potty break and playtime in our fully fenced backyard, followed by walks around the neighborhood if requested. Throughout the day, your dog will have supervised play, lots of affection, fresh water, and time to relax indoors. I’ll follow your pet’s normal feeding and potty schedule to help them feel comfortable and at home.

Please let me know about your dog’s personality, daily routine, medications, allergies, dietary restrictions, and any special needs. I’d also like to know how they get along with other dogs, children, and new people, along with any behaviors such as separation anxiety, excessive barking, or escape tendencies. My goal is to provide the safest and most comfortable stay possible.
