Pet care experience

Love at first woof! 💛

Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and more—I treat every pet like family. I have a small dog of my own (Brio, 11 years!) and understand how important it is to trust who’s caring for your furry companion. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and value timely communication, providing high quality care and your trust in me. Some of my offerings include at least 3 walks and check-ins daily, (depending on the need) and daily boarding and doggy day, in a safe,clean, pet-friendly home. I also like to keep the pups clean after every walk by wiping them down fully, including their paws, with fragrance free pet wipes. I generally follow a consistent schedule where I keep your furry babies well-fed, active throughout the day via walks or indoor/outdoor play time and comfortable. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions or to see if I'm a good fit for your pet—I’d love to meet them!

Jocelyn was really exceptional. She took such great care of my girl and made her a part of her family for the week. She came back smelling great too! Highly recommend and will definitely use her again.

Jocelyn and her family took incredible care of our pup! She was very communicative and sent plenty updates to help us stay relaxed while away from our dog. She was also very helpful when travel plans changed - will definitely be taking our pup back to her again in the future!

Jocelyn took such great care of my girl Bella! She sent multiple updates and videos throughout the entire stay. Pick up and drop off were very smooth and I felt extremely comfortable leaving Bella with her. She also worked with me when I had issues with travel delays. Highly recommend this sitter!

Jocelyn was hands down the best Rover experience I’ve ever had. From the moment I met her, I could immediately feel the warmth and care she would provide for my dog. She sent daily pictures and activity updates, and the level of attention and love she gave him went far above and beyond. My dog came home so happy — I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Jocelyn looked after my little kittens for me! She was incredibly respectful of both of them, letting them get comfortable with her at their own pace and they became fast friends after that. She pays close attention to the animals and is sure to ask what I'd prefer when it comes to my fur babies. I also know she has a sweet little pup at home that she takes excellent care of. I would definitely recommend Jocelyn to anyone!

Jocelyn is great with dogs. She took such great care of my dog, Mochi. I really appreciated the updates and photos—they made it clear Mochi was in good hands and having a great time. When I got back, Mochi was relaxed and content. If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely great with dogs, Jocelyn is a fantastic choice. I would absolutely trust her to watch Mochi again anytime!

Schedule

I offer daily boarding and doggy day-care in a safe, clean, pet friendly home and multiple walks/ check-ins a day as needed. I typically follow a consistent schedule providing meals 3x a day, or as needed, followed by a walk and lots of play time throughout the day. I also like to keep your pups clean throughout the day by wiping them down fully, including their paws, after every walk. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs.

Safety, trust & environment

My dog, Brio, is friendly with other dogs and can keep your furry baby some company. My home is fully equipped with beds, a crate, food bowls, toys, and a playpen if needed. Pets are welcome on the couch, and we love giving plenty of cuddles and playtime to keep them happy and comfortable.

Pets

A typical day

Every dog is different and enjoys different activities, but I generally like going for a walk in the neighborhood, local park or the North Haven trail. My building has a small dog park where we can play fetch, play dog volleyball and run around freely. At home, we do brain stimulating and fun activities and practice new tricks e.g., rolling over, sitting, finding the treat, etc.
