experienced vet assistant

Pet care experience

I worked at Veterinary Hospitals for 10 years. I have been pet sitting for 10 years plus now. I have acquired clients from my time working at vet hospitals and on Rover. I am back on Rover to expand my clients. I work with all animals from small mammals reptiles birds cats and i have worked with clients to pet sit and administer medication if needed. I have pet sited for clients with multiple animals or clients with just one animal. I have also worked with clients that have more then one type of animal. my schedule is very flexible and its always for the animals. I have a passion for animals and hope I can take you of yours thank you very much- Josh.

Joshua was amazing!!! It was my first time using Rover, but Joshua kept me at ease. I will certainly be using Joshua in the near future.

The smell we got home to wants to make me give this review 0 stars. Our dog was left inside so long that she had multiple accidents. Some so old they were dried to the floor. In the 5 years she’s been our dog, she’s never had an accident. After checking our security system, we saw that Joshua fed and left our home at 3pm we returned at midnight so she was left inside his entire time. After speaking with him he said there was an emergency surgery at his vet office and apologized. However, the professional thing to do would have been tomlet us know he wasn’t able to return and I would have found a friend to come let her out. After a day of cleaning we still can not get the smells out. Joshua seems like a nice guy and sent pictures which we appreciated, however, as a Rover sitter myself I know the care I provide and want the same in return when hiring through this company.

If we could give more than 5 stars we would! When my boyfriend and I started looking into an in-house sitter we were a little worried that our dog Shady might be a little to aloof and difficult for someone new. Shady is a large rottweiler mix who can be high energy on walks and mopey when we aren't around. The second we met Josh we knew that he could handle it, and despite our dog usually being more of a "ladies man" he took to Josh immediately! The entire weekend we were gone we got plenty of pictures and text updates so we never had to worry about how anything was going! When we returned Shady was happy & healthy, and when Josh came by to drop off our spare key Shady was still as excited to see him as ever! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him, and we will DEFINITELY be using him again!

I’m so thankful for Josh and his wonderful attentiveness to my elderly dog, Lucy. Lucy is suffering from a number of old age symptoms, needs medicine every eight hours, and needs help around the house - and Josh handles it all with ease. He has such a positive and loving spirit, and you can just tell he loves animals so much. All of this, and he’s a vet assistant, which provides me with peace of mind, in case something happens while I’m out of town. He even brought Lucy some gifts last time he watched her! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Josh to take care of your dog :)
