I'll be your dog's new best friend!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs my whole life, and lost my rescue dog after 7 years together in January 2017. He was a senior, blind mini poodle that I loved very much. Although I'm not ready to adopt again yet, and travel frequently enough for work, I am ready to love and take care of other people's dogs while making some money on the side. I also occasionally foster dogs for the rescue group, Redemption Paws, and can provide references from them as well. I am highly responsible and caring, take the dogs out for walks and potty breaks, play with them, speak to them, cuddle them, feed them, can administer medication: my last two dogs were on medications for the the last year or so of their lives. I live across from a dog park that would provide socialization if thew dog parents so desire. I live in a very dog friendly neighbourhood and my entire family are dog lovers. In the summer, I'll take your pups to Cherry Beach dog park! I can provide as many references as needed, including from my veterinarians to ensure you know the dogs are in very loving, capable hands. I have a 9-5 day job, managing PR and communications for Tourism Ireland, but it's a 20 minute walk away and I come home at lunch for potty breaks and/or a walk. I understand how your dog is your baby and will treat them as such.

Jocelyn is the absolute best. She has extensive experience caring for pets of varying sizes, needs and temperaments. Our rescue Ollie excelled in Jocelyn's care and we would definitely recommend her to anyone we know!

Jocelyn is a doggie whisperer. She is both a rescue dog owner and has successfully fostered many rescue dogs over the years. She intuitively knows what they need and is extremely patient while helping them build their confidence. She always puts the dogs needs first to make sure they are happy and comfortable. She is extremely reliable and loving. Any dog would be lucky to be taken care of by Jocelyn.

My rescue dog has boarded with Jocelyn and her dog Maui many times over the last few years and I always have peace of mind that she is getting the best care and attention possible. Jocelyn is very attentive to my dogs needs when she stays and will walk her alone and on extra walks. She treats my dog like her own and has a lot of experience with rescues and knows what dogs need. I also really appreciate her flexibility, willingness to help and go above and beyond. You can’t go wrong with Jocelyn to care for your beloved pet when away. 10/10 recommend!
