Stosh loves dogs & is here to help!

Pet care experience

Hi my name is Stanley but I go by Stosh and I love dogs! I love spending time outside with my dog Ramble and try to live a healthy, active life. My interests include yoga, drawing, glasswork, and most outside adventures. My dog Ramble is a male 8 yo, 65 pound Collie mix with a lot of energy and a keen sense of direction. He loves the beach. We recently said goodbye to LC, our 15 yo, 45 pound husky mix. She had heart failure and took medication throughout the day. Her meds caused her to have incontinence, so that meant frequent walks and diapering to avoid accidents. Before LC, our previous 15 yo Midas (70 pound lab mix) had significant skin and mobility issues which required multiple medical treatments, including frequent baths and extra attention to lifting him and walking him with limited use of his hind legs. Caring for our elderly dogs has given me great patience in working with dogs with special needs, including giving medicine, helping with walking or other mobility issues. I want to help your dog if they’re young and active like Ramble or elderly with special needs. Working with dogs gives me satisfaction because it combines two of my favorite things: dogs and being outside. I enjoy meeting other dogs and interacting with people, too. Spending time with dogs brings me joy, because they love being outside as much as I do. I’ll take great care of your buddy or princess, and they’ll be happy and tired after our time together!

Our Border Collie mix and Australian Shepherd loved their staycation with Stosh, Amy and Ramble. My husband and I are so grateful for the superb care and attention our pups received — including outdoor exercise and indoor playtime sessions that kept them physically active and mentally stimulated. The photos, videos, and brief updates Stosh provided us while we were off-island were much appreciated, as we could see that our dogs were so relaxed and happy in Stosh’s care!

We just moved to Kauai and finding a new sitter can be hard. Stosh had great reviews and although my Riley boy was initially reluctant, he quickly came to see that Stosh was going to be an awesome sitter. I could tell from the get go that my two boys were in good hands and the pictures showed it. My boys are elderly and take medication so having a reliable, caring sitter means the world. I am beyond grateful I found him.

He checked in and sent photos of my sweet dog on walks and gave a clear report on how it went. Grateful to have had him take care of my boy while i was out. Mahalo!!!
