About Josh

I'm a student at Canterbury University studying commerce. I have always loved dogs but am not in a position to have one of my own at the moment. My family dog is a mini foxy and I within my extended family we have lots of dogs so I've had lots of experience with various dogs- from terriers, to spaniels and a beloved finish lapphund. (I'll add a photo of him and I, I was much younger in that photo!)

Over this winter I have been getting into running a lot more so would love to find some dogs to take on my runs and walks, I'm available on an ongoing basis for dog walking and dog sitting (in dogs own home. I live in the wigram/Hornby area so my preference is for bookings on this side of town. I may also have some availability for dog boarding but need to work in with my mother, who is also registered here on pawshake(so we don't end up with too many dogs here all at once!) But the beauty of this is we can also help each other out to make a booking work for you that neither one of us would have availability for solo. I have been helping her with her house sitting bookings for almost a year now. The family mini foxy lives in the home.

Highly recommend Josh. He looked after our dog with such care, sent lots of photos and gave her a lot of exercise, love and attention. She loved her holiday!

Josh was super flexible when I added an extra night and was able to keep Ivy longer than originally planned. Can't recommend him highly enough!
