Pet care experience

Always have been an animal lover <3

I’ve cared for many types of animals since before the age of 10. I started horseback at 9 years old, grew up on a farm and had dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, birds, horses, reptiles included. I love and bond very well with pretty much any animal/pet I’ve met.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Every animal requires different care. My dog free roams in the yard because she’s trained to stay within the properties limits. My cat on the other hand does not and I have to harness her whenever I take her outside. I understand very well that all animals have different needs, and are differently trained. That being said whatever your pets specific care needs are, I’ll have no problem meeting them.

Jocelyn was great with our dogs, they warmed up to her on her first visit. She was on time and spent quality time with our dogs. I highly recommend her for anyone with large dogs like ours.

Our pups love Jocelyn. She took care of 3 Shih Tzus for 3 days and 2 nights. The first night she needed to bring one of the pups to the ER which I believe was from a vaccine reaction. She didn’t hesitate to bring him and sit with him throughout the night and in the end, all worked out. The communication was great and lots of pictures were sent. We plan to use her again.

Jocelyn did an incredible job with my two pups - both are young with tons of energy. My 3yo border collie was not friendly but Jocelyn easily won her over. I was truly impressed with how she expertly navigated my dog’s behaviors. I received great pictures that highlighted how well cared for they were while I was away. Jocelyn kept them happy, safe and fed. I appreciate Jocelyn”s regular updates and photos. I would 1000% rebook Jocelyn.

General information I’d like to know about per before sitting is. Do they have any special needs that must be catered too? Are they sensitive around certain noises, areas, or other animals? Do they have a specific diet? (This is good to know because I love to buy treats and toys for pets, but I always want to make sure they can have those treats/toys before buying).
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.
