Availability

I generally start my day at 6am and we take our first walk by 6:30am. I work 12 minutes from home so I come home for lunch daily so our dogs never have to wait more than 5 hours between walks. I’m home by 6pm and make sure we get plenty of outdoor time and snuggles before calling it a day.

Information Joshua S. would like to know about your pet

It's always great to know how they act around other dogs. High energy is not a problem so long as they're not aggressive. Also, dogs who are house trained or at least wee wee pad trained are preferred. While Brewster can play a little more freely with other large breeds, he gets along with animals of all sizes. In fact, our first Rover guest was a Chihuahua!

A typical day

Brewster and I enjoy walks in our neighborhood, nearby parks, and occasionally visit the dog park to meet some new friends (but our many Rover guests seem to fill that void now). He has plenty of toys to share for play time at home. We also love to binge a new show or watch a movie, so snuggles are daily while doing so.

Pet care experience

About Me & My Home I am a young professional and lifelong dog lover dedicated to providing a comfortable, clean, and engaging environment for your furry family members. For the last decade, my life was centered around my beloved dog, Brewster. While he recently passed away, his spirit of hospitality lives on in my home. Because I don’t currently have any pets of my own, your dog will enjoy my undivided attention and the quiet sanctuary of a pet-free home. I have a large, fenced-in yard that we utilize as often as possible, and my neighborhood offers plenty of safe, scenic space for long walks. Professional Care & Hospitality I hold a degree in Hospitality Management from Syracuse University and have spent my career in the hotel and retail industries. To me, pet sitting is the ultimate form of hospitality. I am committed to ensuring that both you and your pet have a seamless, high-end experience from start to finish. My Experience Brewster came into my life during a challenging time and taught me more about patience, care, and connection than I ever thought possible. Combined with the dogs I was fortunate enough to raise earlier in life, I have a deep well of experience in: • Senior dog care and "slow-paced" companionship. • Managing different temperaments and energy levels. • Maintaining a safe, structured, and loving environment. Whether your dog loves long adventures or prefers quietly observing the world from a sunny spot in the yard, I look forward to making them feel right at home.

Joshua has been such a blessing for me. Because of my work hours, I am not able to take my dog to a daycare. It’s been such a relief to have a communicative, trustworthy person come by to care for my dog. Totally worth the peace of mind!

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.
