Pet care experience

Calm & Caring Cat Compadre!

I grew up around a lot of animals, and have had many significant connections with them, including my own as well as those of friends and family members. I started caring for cats about 5 years ago, and since then I have become quite a cat nerd! I enjoy learning about the nature and behavior of cats and how to create a harmonious environment with them.

Joshua did several days of drop-in visits for our four cats and we couldn’t be happier! I appreciated that he took the time to get to know each of the cats and their unique personalities, including a very shy cat, and had no problem administering a daily medication! He is very communicative and attentive and I loved the photos and detailed notes after each drop in visit! When I got home the cats were calm and relaxed, and the house was clean and tidy. He even took the time to clean up the litter around the boxes, which I am so appreciative of! I highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking for a responsible and kind cat sitter! We’ll be rebooking with him in the future!!

This was our first time using the Rover platform and we were very happy with the results, and that of course can be pretty much attributed to the great and kind service we received from Joshua. We had a sudden death in the family and needed to travel abroad at short notice and when we put out the request Joshua was very responsive and asked to do a meet and greet before confirming the booking. We thought this was great, as it gave all parties the chance to test the waters, especially our two cats, Karl and Debbie - it gave Joshua a chance to meet them, and them the chance to meet him, and also of course it gave us the chance to meet with Joshua and learn about the process, show him around the house, and make sure all were feeling great. Joshua sent detailed updates along with pictures. We have a very shy little cat, and even though she didn't quite break open her shell and hang out with Joshua, he was very kind in approaching her with caution and waiting around a bit longer to give her the chance to come out. During a period of great pain and grief for our family, Joshua really helped ease our minds when it came to leaving our fur family at home. Thank you Joshua!

Joshua was fantastic!! I will definitely book his services again. He was super gentle & caring with our very shy cat, and took the time to meet her before the booking. This was our first time using Rover and it was a huge relief to have someone as reliable & thoughtful as Joshua. Thank you so much!!!

Josh did a great job updating us and being communicative. He met our cat before we went out of town and built a trusting relationship with her. He was very dependable. We will definitely be using Joshua’s services for future needs.

Schedule

During the weekdays I teach high school music, and am free to care for and play with furry friends on weeknight evenings and through weekends.

Cats
Joshua can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Any information I can have about your cat’s temperament, openness to petting and being picked up, favorite toys, typical eating habits/routines, and safe spaces + hiding places would be most helpful.
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.
