About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.

“We couldn’t be more grateful to Jocelyn for taking such great care of Wakely while we were out hiking! She went above and beyond by coming directly to our RV campsite, which made everything so much easier for us. Her communication was fantastic—prompt, clear, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. We especially appreciated the Rover card she shared after her visit with Wakely—it was detailed and reassuring, and it was clear she treated him with so much care. Highly recommend Jocelyn to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate pet sitter!”
About: I've owned a dog ever since I was 12 years old. Dogs have gotten me through the best and worst parts of my life. I have a background in physical therapy and massage and for years I enjoyed bringing my dog to work every day, she became the nursing home mascot, seeing the joy she brought to both my patients and coworkers made every day at work a great day :). I work in Saranac Lake and Lake Placid as an independent contractor. My work schedule/hours can be very flexible/adjusted accordingly as long as I have advanced notice to plan accordingly. I live on 4.5 acres with a long driveway set back from the road. My property backs up to a wooded trail network. I also have a very large, gated Freedom Fenced in dog play area on my property. Dogs are free to all areas of home without restriction. Unfortunately, my husband and I are allergic to cats so I am unable to board them. I do have a 3 year old daughter, so if boarding, pet must be good around children. I also do not board or provide in home services for dogs that are exposed to smoking or vaping of any kind. Please note; when providing pet care services, I will never leave a dog unsupervised, or under the care of anyone other than myself.

“We hired Shelby to meet us at a half marathon and watch our dogs while we ran. We were traveling from Maryland to Vermont and then on to Rhode Island, and we didn’t want to leave our dogs alone. She was AMAZING! Our 2 dogs loved her from the start and we felt comfortable leaving them with her to keep safe. If we were ever to find ourselves in Vermont again, we would definitely look her up! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
