Pet care experience

Husband & Wife, animal loving team!

Josh - I've had dogs and cats all my life, and I worked as a kennel technician for Dog Daze for awhile. I'm great with all types of dogs, and can take care of cats too! I used to help with aggressive dogs as well, and know the body languages, to help take care of dogs in isolation. Bethany - I'm a local teacher and mom during the week and have had cats and dogs since I was a kid. I love to volunteer with animal shelters and spend time with all animals. I get along great with dogs and cats and love to help care for them.

I needed to attend my husband’s celebration of life out of town & was worried about leaving our dogs for a day. Joshua saved the day! I didn’t once worry about them, which allowed me to be completely present.

Always reliable and responsive! My kitties love their visits with Joshua! He puts any Amazon packages into the house and was super nice to see something needed to refrigerated and reached out to ask if he could open and put in the fridge. That was totally awesome! We’ve used him 3 times and already have him rebooked for next get away!

Please let us know about any conditions, preferences, or particular needs your pet has during booking requests. Knowing what kind of play they enjoy and their typical energy levels/routine throughout the day will be helpful for us to get comfortable with each other. Any special needs and quirks should be made known during the booking period (i.e. slips out of collar, frightened by thunderstorms, gets car sick, excessive barking, digestive issues, aggression during walks, etc). Please share any particular routine or schedule that your dog is used to so that we can be as accommodating as possible. Any and all additional info is welcome!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
