Information Joshua A. would like to know about your pet

I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs of all types of behaviors. No challenge I’m not up for! Just let me know of any medication instructions, or if your dog needs to have their own space without other dogs.

A typical day

Your pets can expect to have as many walks and potty breaks as they see fit. Plenty of space to get exercise in or out of the home.

Pet care experience

I currently work from home on a totally flexible schedule, so I’d be spending all day, every day with your pet if you choose to have them stay with me. I am looking forward to meeting your companions, of all shapes and sizes! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had experience with about any pet you can imagine. Dogs, cats, parrots, reptiles, you name it! From my beginnings on a farm in rural Wisconsin, my university education in zoology, and my work experience as an animal care technician under veterinarian supervision, I’ve learned a lot. Not only do I have extensive personal experience caring for pets of my own, I also have professional work experience developing enrichment, administering medicine/first aid, and monitoring the health, safety, and care of several small and large animal species in a hospital/laboratory setting. There is no obstacle too large for me to overcome when it comes to making sure you and your companion have the most positive experience possible with my pet care services.

Joshua is a great dog sitter! He was very accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up times, and took great care of our dog. We'd definitely book with him again!

Joshua took great care of my dog as I was moving into the city. I got updates throughout the stay. And they were ready waiting outside when I came for pickup. Thanks for making a hectic time go a lot smoother!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
