Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a studio on the 10th floor of an apartment building. It is not very spacious, but I do not mind having your cat jump on countertops, bed, table, etc. For drop-ins, unless noted otherwise, I try to optimize the time we have together by playing with toys, feeding treats, and showing them love through pets, cuddles, etc.

Information Josh H. would like to know about your pet

I have worked with both shy and social cats in the past. I have no preference and have the confidence to provide the best care for any new friend that I'll be lucky to meet!

A typical day

I will spend time entertaining your cat with their favorite toys, feed them their favorite treats, and give them plenty of love while respecting their boundaries.

You've Got a Friend in Me-ow

Pet care experience

3 years ago, I adopted two kittens at exactly 2 months old with my ex-girlfriend while working from home (they currently stay with her). One was a social, attention-loving, yet somewhat aggressive, B&W tuxedo boy named Levi. The other was a calm, sweet, orange & white buddy named Apollo. Through my experience in raising them both, I have learned how to work with the different personalities, effective ways to gain their trust/keep them happy, and most importantly, I developed a love and appreciation for these little guys like I never have before! Since then, I've looked after other cats via my network and even volunteered at a cat cafe in Northern Virginia. The internal pleasure I gain from spending time with these animals is what brought me to Rover. Hoping to meet your awesome friend soon!

Josh did a great job taking care of my cat Luna over the holidays. He sent me photos every day and did everything I asked. Luna can have some eating issues and Josh handled them with care and regular updates to me. I recommend him to everyone.

Josh was amazing with our cat Ramen! I loved the updates and the photos. I truly felt Ramen was getting the VIP Rover experience with Josh.

Josh was so wonderful with our cat! We were nervous about leaving her during the holidays, but Josh provided really helpful and fun updates and photos to ease our minds. He was also very communicative and asked questions to ensure he was providing the best care for our fur baby!
