Professional care you can trust
Pet care experience
Worried about your best friend while you're away at work? Unexpected plans have you stressing about how your dog will get enough exercise today? Do you have a senior pet that just needs a check in and some snuggles? I might be the help you need! Along with caring for my personal dog, I have been caring for others' dogs since I was a young child. I have been handling dogs professionally for about 6 years. Currently I am a full-time veterinary technician in Franklin, MA. I am Canine/Feline CPR and First Aid certified and a registered Fear Free professional. My philosophy has always been to treat others' pets the way I would care for my own. Outside of my professional life; you can find me doing yoga, skiing, or simply enjoying time outside with my own dogs. I hope you will find me to be a good option for your furry best friend!
Reviews
Jocelyn has watched my pets while I was away on vacation numerous times. I have 4 dogs, a cat, Guinea pigs, turtles and fish. She treats them like they were her own. She is trust worthy and my dogs adore her.

Information Jocelyn A. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if a dog is reactive at all- Does your dog enjoy other dogs? Is your dog fearful of men? Should I avoid touching your dog anywhere that may cause it to feel pain or be frightened, etc? I also prefer to know of any allergies, medications, or medical conditions (such as seizures). This helps me to care for your dog in the best way possible for him/her. I do not have any breed preferences but I do ask that your dog have basic obedience training. I am not a dog trainer and I will not take on any dog that I am concerned to injure myself or other while they are in my care.
A typical day
I love taking dogs on wooded walks, but have a strict ON-LEASH ONLY policy for dogs that I do not personally own. Usually, I will start with a nice walk (or jog) for your dog, then either a play session or a cuddle session. Every dog is different and I anticipate a unique, individualized experience with each pup.
