Pet care experience

Professional Pet Companion

I’ve been caring for pets since I was 8 years old and have also worked in pet retail, gaining hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. I truly believe animals are earth’s little angels, and being around them brings me genuine joy. Caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I love.

Joshua has cared for Mary Jane twice now, and each experience has been wonderful. His communication is always clear, his understanding of her needs is evident, and she’s completely comfortable in his care. It gives me peace of mind knowing she’s with someone who truly pays attention. I’m so glad I came across Joshua on Rover, and I will continue to support his business.

Joshua was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my puppy with someone I didn’t personally know, so I was definitely nervous. Joshua was friendly, attentive, and informative, and his home was very clean and welcoming. My puppy seemed so comfortable and happy with him, which immediately gave me peace of mind. I had a great experience and would absolutely use Joshua’s services again. 10/10, highly recommend! 🐶❤️

Schedule

Caring for pets fits so naturally into my daily life—it honestly doesn’t feel like a job. My days are built around walks, cuddles, feeding, and playtime. Whether it’s a morning stroll or a quiet moment on the couch, I truly enjoy every minute I spend with the animals I care for. They bring so much joy and I love giving that love right back.

Safety, trust & environment

Empathy and safety are at the heart of how I care for every pet—whether in my home or a client’s. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, personality, and comfort level. I provide constant monitoring to ensure they are always safe, whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing indoors. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and treat their space with care and respect. Every animal deserves to feel secure and understood, and I make that my top priority. I can crate your dog if needed, and I also have a nice sized playpen for small dogs.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, engaged, and happy! Depending on their personality and energy level, I’ll take them on walks, play fetch, enjoy tug-of-war, or have a good old-fashioned cuddle session. For more relaxed pets, I’ll keep them company with gentle play or cozy downtime. I always tailor activities to each pet’s needs—whether that means adventure or just some extra belly rubs and love. Just a quick note: I never deviate from the food you provide — your pet’s diet is followed exactly as instructed. However, after boarding, there are cases where you may notice occasional changes in your dog’s stool. In my experience, this can happen due to anxiety or the shift in routine, not because of any changes in their diet on my end. Dogs, like humans, can be sensitive to new environments. I always monitor them closely and will keep you updated on anything I observe.

It’s very important for me to know as much as possible about your pet ahead of time. Every animal is unique, and understanding their special needs, behaviors, routines, likes, dislikes, and any fears they may have helps me provide the best care possible. Whether it’s a favorite toy, a fear of loud noises, specific medical needs, or quirks in their routine—I want to know it all so I can make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for.
