💜Loving, Experienced Pet Care

Hi, I’m Jocelyn! I am a stay at home mom and I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years. I can honestly say pets are my passion. I know how hard it is to leave your furry best friend behind, so I make it my mission to give every dog the same love, patience, and care I give my own. I have three dogs of my own who are amazing around others big and small! I have been boarding for two years and they are all very used to others. Whether your pup loves play time, belly rubs, or just curling up on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I send daily updates with photos (we do not send photos the first day since your pet is adjusting and cameras will just make them more nervous) so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Our home is pet-friendly with a fully fenced big yard. We do not do walks since our backyard is big enough to run and get energy out and we provide separate spaces when needed. Our separate room has a tv and alexa to wind down and relax. As a prior preschool teacher and artist, I bring patience and creativity to each pet’s care, with my husband. Our children are also very gentle with all animals, ensuring your pet will feel safe and loved in our care. We specialize in caring for senior pets and administering medications as well. Holiday rates cover longer hours, flexible scheduling, and lots of attention while you travel — so you can relax knowing your pets are part of our family traditions too. During your stay we provide: * Bowls to eat from (washed after every stay) * Blankets (washed after every stay) * Treats (feel free to provide some as well) * Crate (only if this is where they normally sleep, please let us know) [Flea, Tick & Cleaning Policy: We use pet-safe products to treat for fleas and ticks weekly and sanitize all pet areas every 2–3 days, as well as after each pet goes home, to keep everyone safe and comfortable.] [Cleanliness & Bathing Policy: To help keep all pets healthy and comfortable, we ask that pets arrive clean and ready for their stay. If a pet arrives excessively dirty and needs a bath upon arrival, a $20 bathing fee will be applied. This helps us reduce the risk of parasites, skin issues, and illness for all pets in our care. This fee does not apply if a pet gets muddy during normal play and only needs a bath before going home.]

I was so nervous to leave our 2 dogs for more than a couple nights. Jocelyn was wonderful to work with, gave me updates and my dogs were well cared for. We will use her again when we need help with them again.

We love bringing our dog to Jocelyn! We get lots of pictures of a happy dog and he always runs into her house without looking back which I think means he’s having lots of fun 🥹

Always 5 stars!! Great communicator, kind person, and our dogs love her. Always flexible, willing to make adjustments when necessary, and never forgets to send us pics of the dogs while we are away. Best dog-sitter in town :)

Schedule

If this is your first time booking with Rover use code: JOCELB05143 for $20 off your stay if it is your first time using rover. Use the link: https://www.rover.com/sit/jocelb05143 I start each day with morning feedings and playtime outside, ensuring each pet gets the exercise and nutrition they need. On those really hot days we may even take a dip in our kiddy pool. Evenings are reserved for another round of playtime and feedings, along with some quality bonding time do we can start time wind down for bed. Keeping the dogs safe, happy and healthy is my main priority :)

We do not take dogs that have special needs. We do board other dogs at the same time so getting that one on one care would be difficult. Is your dog good with children? Are they sociable with other dogs? What is their normal feeding schedule? Where do they normally sleep at night? We do only like to take dogs that are friendly with other dogs. Please ensure that your dog is free of ticks, fleas and lice. We do treat the house and high traffic areas regularly and hold ourselves to high cleaning standards. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns :)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
