“Nicole was such a wonderful dog sitter to my baby dachshund. She kept me updated constantly and asked all the right questions. I felt extremely at ease knowing Nicole was doing everything in her power to make sure my dog was well fed, exercised and entertained. Definitely would recommend Nicole for any of your pet sitting needs :)”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“Zoe always has the best time with Mitzi and Klifton!! They treat her like their own — taking her on hikes, setting up a doggie pool, daily walks, and tons of photos to us to show all the fun she is having! She always comes home happy and tired. We love sending Zoe to stay with them and know that she is in amazing hands! Thank you!!!”
“Missy and Evan took such great care of our senior pup! She fit right in at their home and was definitely well taken care of. They sent daily updates with pictures, which put our minds at ease since our pup is older and sometimes has anxiety. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Robyn!!! She took amazing care of my Lilibet and we will definitely reach out for future excursions. She had lots of playtime and outdoor activities that she loved....”
“Sue was absolutely amazing! We took a ski day and our dog stayed with her and had a blast, she was very communicative, sent photos, and made sure the dogs she had get along together with ours. She had repetitive doggies there and I’m sure our dog Cash will be one of them next time we come.”
“Jen watched our active, exuberant year and a half old Irish setter for a week while we were out in Breckenridge and traveled around for a week. Jen is a great communicator and goes out of her way to make you feel ok about leaving your dog with a complete stranger. She sent us a few pictures during the week and responded promptly if I needed to check in. Jen is busy with two small children and work…but is organized and will take good care of your fur baby. Can’t thank her enough?—D.C”
“Shanik took such great care of our Aussie Shepherd -- she was communicative, prompt, sent photos along the way, overall just made sure our fur baby was safe & happy! Will definitely use her again! Thank you, Shanik!”
“Diane and Chris were absolutely amazing with our little shy guy. This was our first time using Rover and they made the process so smooth with updates of photos and videos to show us how he was doing. They were even so helpful in working with us when our flight home got delayed. We would happily recommend and will have Whiskey stay with them again in the future!”
“Amanda was great! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate on short notice. She sent pictures and took Maggie on one of her favorite walks! I had a tired pup when I picked her up, which is always a guarantee that she had a good time. I will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Amazing experience! We left our 1 year old pup for the first time for 5days and felt like he was in such good hands with Abigail. We scheduled a visit prior to leaving which made for a smooth drop off. She sent up photographs and updates and cared for our pup just like we would in our home.”
“Ellyn was absolutely amazing! She provided many updates with photos throughout the stay and Marlo was happy (and tired from playing with her dog Murphy!) are after her stay. Will definitely be using Ellyn for future sittings!!”
“Tracy was so great! Super flexible & accommodating, took such great care of my pup, taking him out for hikes(!) and ensuring he was comfortable making new friends. And such a lovely house, too! Clearly a dog-haven. :)”
“Addison was so accommodating, easy to communicate with and sweet with my dog! She sent updates and pictures, and took great care of her. Highly recommend and hope to book with her again in the future :)”
“Elle is great! She was so sweet with my crazy energetic pup and sent daily updates during his 3 day stay with her. He came home happy, healthy, and tired! It is obvious that Elle understands different dog personalities and is attentive to their needs. I won't hesitate to book with her again in the future. Thanks again Elle!? ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
About: Hi! I’m Josie. First thing to know about me- My love for dogs and cats is beyond. One thing that consistently makes my day is spoiling animals. I enjoy staying fit so running is a hobby of mine…Even better, jogging or hiking with dogs- it keeps me going! I Have 7 years experience in pet sitting and dog walking, as well as working in boarding/daycare facilities. I always look forward to building a trusting relationship and continuing care for your fury family member(s) whenever you may need it. I prefer interviewing before hand so I can get to know you and your pet(s), and, of course, so that you feel can comfortable with me. I am very flexible with my schedule and reliable all around. Love for your pets will always be a top priority of mine- that’s a given. This is something that excites me, as animal rights/connection is one of my greatest (if not the greatest) passions. Please contact me and you can expect a quick reply! Pet care will be and always is my first priority. Besides this, I’m currently working a separate very part-time job and in college online until the end of summer- I am very open and available as of now. No matter the location, I care for all animals the same. As far as what I can do for your family (as of now), I am available to come care for your pets at your home, where I’ll follow any instructions and precautions you provide just as I would my own. I am available to come take your baby(babies) on walks when you may need, feedings, or just some love in your absence, of course!!

Josephine B.
“Josie B is with out any DOUBT the most loving caring young woman I’ve ever known and her love for animals ..ALL animals is truly beautiful. She connects with cats and dogs like anyone I’ve known and I know this sounds to good to be true but it is. She will not only care for your pet but she will love them in your absence as you do. She has been watching my Siberian cat ( Ford ) while I travel for 2+ years ( which in frequently ) and Ford nuzzles and cuddles with Josie from the second she sees him again. I’ve got pictures to prove it. She is worth every penny ( frankly she doesn’t charge enough so leave this beautiful young lady a generous tip :)) You will be thrilled with the care she will provide for you and your pet. I promise!!”
