I’ve trusted Josh on a number of occasions to watch my dog keystone while traveling. He has a great backyard and is a genuinely caring person who goes above and beyond. He loves animals like they’re his own. If you’re looking for peace of mind, I highly recommend you give Josh a try!

Joshua has been an incredible pet sitter for my husky and my cat. Every time I leave them with him, I know they’re in the best hands. They’re always happy, well cared for, and genuinely excited to see him. My pets absolutely adore him, and it’s clear he has a natural love for animals. He’s responsible, trustworthy, and treats them like they’re his own. I couldn’t recommend Joshua more to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet caregiver.

Schedule

As a full-time remote professional, pet care integrates seamlessly into my daily routine without disrupting my work. My schedule allows me to work comfortably from my home office desk while providing your dog with consistent supervision, regular companionship, and frequent outdoor breaks in my securely fenced backyard. Because I do not offer neighborhood walks, my focus remains entirely on structured indoor play, mental enrichment, and easy access to yard exercise. I strictly care for a limited number of low-maintenance guest dogs at a time. This deliberate limit guarantees that your pet fits perfectly into my balanced workday, receiving high-quality, individual attention and a premium, stress-free stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Because I work from home full-time, your pet will enjoy a highly structured, reliable routine with constant human company. My home office setup allows me to provide continuous supervision and easy, frequent access to the outdoors throughout the day. For safety, guest pets have a dedicated, pet-proofed space separate from our family areas, and I always feed animals individually to ensure a completely stress-free mealtime. I strictly follow your specific instructions for feeding, medication, and crating to keep your pet’s routine identical to what they enjoy at home.

Pets

A typical day

I believe a happy pet is one that is both physically active and mentally engaged! Your pet will get plenty of fresh air and interaction without ever leaving the safety of my property. Our daily routine includes frequent potty breaks and fun games of fetch or gentle tug-of-war in my securely fenced backyard. I also focus heavily on mental enrichment, using puzzle toys, snuffle mats, and stuffed Kongs to keep their minds sharp and ease any separation anxiety. When it is time to relax, they will enjoy dedicated office companionship with quiet cuddle time on a comfortable dog bed right next to my desk while I work. We can also incorporate short, positive-reinforcement sessions to practice basic commands like sit and stay using their favorite training treats.

To guarantee a safe, comfortable, and successful stay for everyone, I require a brief Meet & Greet before confirming our first booking. It is incredibly helpful to know their exact medical and dietary requirements, including food allergies, medication dosages, schedules, or physical limitations. Please share their behavioral triggers, such as how they react to seeing other animals, strangers, delivery drivers, or loud noises like thunderstorms. I also need to know if your pet shows any resource guarding over food, toys, or spaces. Finally, please share their specific yard manners, how they signal they need to go outside, their routine, and if they have any escape tendencies like jumping or digging under fences.
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.
