Safety, trust & environment

I have a sizable studio apartment on a quiet street. I’m also close by to several parks! I work from home full-time so we would be able to take walks or potty breaks every 3-4 hours depending on your dog’s needs. Lots of play time and belly rubs in between if your dog so desires! If we are in your home, I will try to stick to your dog’s regular routine as much as possible, with extra treats and belly rubs if allowed!

Information Jocelyn C. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, but I am not able to work with outwardly aggressive dogs (I do not have the expertise to train or handle an aggressive dog, and don’t want either of us to be harmed). Please let me know if your dog has certain behavioral traits such as shyness, preference in playing alone or with other dogs, barking near strangers, food aggression, preference in rewards (pets/praise vs. food), etc.

A typical day

Dependent on owner’s preferences. If you want me to work on socializing, I will take the dog to the park, around the neighborhood, and to outdoor shopping areas to meet other dogs and humans.

Pet care experience

Overview: I have 8 years of experience pet sitting for dogs of friends and family members, have fostered and housebroken dogs and puppies in my own home, currently volunteer with 2 animal rescues, and have helped take care of newborn litters and their moms until they are able to be adopted out to their own forever homes. I absolutely love all types of dogs and working with them. Special skills: house and crate training, teaching ‘sit’ and ‘shake’ commands, recall training, socializing, basic obedience Availability: I am mostly available after 5 pm on weekdays or any time on weekends for services, but if given notice at least 2 to 3 days ahead of time, will be flexible with providing services during weekdays before 5 pm.

Jocelyn was super communicative throughout planning our meet & greet and during our pup, Mo’s stay! She asked all the right questions, made sure Mo always had company due to his separation anxiety, and sent some cute pics ☺️ I wish he played with her pup, Nugget, but they seemed to coexist very well together! Def recommend her services 🫶🏼

Jocelyn’s care and support towards Theo is unmatched! He loves his walks and can’t wait to play with her pup Nugget after. She’s kind and caring towards my dog which helps with his anxiety. Can’t recommend her enough!!!

We feel so lucky to have found Jocelyn! She has been absolutely wonderful with our dog, Baloo. From the start, Jocelyn has been professional, dependable, and incredibly caring. Baloo adores her and gets so excited for their walks—it’s clear she treats him with the same love and attention as if he were her own. We have total peace of mind knowing Baloo is in such good hands. Could not recommend her more highly!

Jocelyn was a wonderful companion for my senior dog and two cats while we were away on vacation. She was a great communicator, keeping us up to date with how everyone was doing, which was great! Jocelyn was such a great house sitter too, helpful and absolutely professional. I will definitely be booking her for our next vacation! Thank you, Jocelyn!
