Your pup’s home away from home 🏡♥️
Pet care experience
Hello, I’m Joshua, or “Shua” for short! I’m very personable with both people and pets. I’m a driven, energetic, and playful person who lives for moments of 1 on 1 connection with animals. I don’t have any dogs of my own, but I have accumulated so much pet sitting experience through Rover. I’ve had the privilege of caring for a diverse range of pups, including Black Labs, Retrievers, Shih-Tzus, Goldendoodles.. You name it, I’ve cuddled it! Through my pet sitting experience, I see myself as an adoptive pet parent. I LOVE that my apartment is rarely empty, and a fur baby is always in reach ♥️🐶 I live in the suburban neighborhood of Spring Branch. I love how much there is to do here. It’s great for running, playing, or any other activity a dog’s heart may desire. My apartment complex has a large yard with lots of open space and grass for my furry guests to play. I play soccer competitively and practice every day. I also enjoy running and cooking. My favorite shows are Suits and How I Met Your Mother. I love watching TV with friends and family. I got a 30 on my ACT and take pride in being able to find creative and intelligent solutions to any problem I’m faced with while dog sitting. Feel free to reach out with any questions!! I am an open book and ALWAYS looking to provide a better pet experience with each new booking.
Reviews
Took wonderful care of our fur baby. Joshua is a great person. Thoughtful and clearly loves animals. (Super convenient for us!) We will absolutely be using him again ❤️
Joshua S. cancelled a booking after the stay began.
Booked for an out-of-state trip. Didn’t show up at the scheduled place and time of drop off. Cannot be contacted. Had to change my travel plans last minute.
Great for last minute trip. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a one bedroom apartment. I like to distribute the dogs evenly amongst the bedroom and living room, depending on compatibility between pups. Then the rooms are stacked with toys, food, and water. From there, it’s just a matter of making sure the pups receive adequate exercise. This can be accomplished through ball play in a smaller space, Fetch, or light jogging outside.
Home
Information Joshua S. would like to know about your pet
Spatial and social preferences (Is your pet antisocial? Is your pet claustrophobic? Do they get extremely uncomfortable in the heat or cold?) provide extremely useful context for taking care of your loved one. Dietary needs and general behavioral tendencies (potty schedule, sleep schedule, etc) are also extremely helpful.
A typical day
When I look after your dog, I’ll be home with them most of the time. We’ll go on walks and jogs, play fetch, and cuddle. I’m very attentive to the needs of pets and always treat my furry guests like they’re my best friends.. I look forward to meeting your special fur baby!

Availability
I currently work from home. My work schedule is very lax and subject to change in order to accommodate pet care. Of course, making sure that each room is stacked with the proper food, water, and equipment whenever i’m leaving the house is part of my routine, and is of paramount importance to me.
