Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Jocelyn. I'm originally from Asheville, NC. I've been a multiple pet owner my whole life and in addition I have worked as petsitter/walker/trainer for many years helping friends, family, coworkers, etc. in the community look after our favorite pals. Many people have told me that animals naturally take to me, even in instances where they're not normally big on new people. I am very attentive to the specific needs of our friends whether it’s giving extra time to the little ones for play time, potty training, or helping elderly pets get around (slower walks, help onto or off pet friendly furniture, up stairs, etc.) I'm not a vet or vet-tech but, as a plus (if it applies to you), I am well experienced in administering insulin and allergy shots because I’ve previously cared for pets that needed both. I’ve help families with adjustments to new additions to the family and helped give extra attention to furry pals while new parents are juggling so many new needs as a household. Ive helped deliver puppies and cared for them as well as mama. Ive helped integrate new furry friends to homes with other pets. Potty training is also a service I provide, helping with anxiety habits and separation habits like chewing, etc. All in all, I love animals, and I love being around them. I'm really excited that this app exists so that I can branch out more and meet new people and pals. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! -Jocelyn

I felt so comfortable with Jocelyn taking care of my dog Bandit. To start, she was very thorough when asking questions about Bandit regarding her history of being around other dogs and her daily habits/needs. Jocelyn was mindful of Bandit and her quirks. My dog is somewhat shy with new people and she quickly warmed up to Jocelyn. I was promptly notified with any updates that were felt to be concerning. 10 out of 10. We will be reaching out to Jocelyn for our upcoming puppy sitting needs!

Jocelyn has been a great asset to us and our dogs! She is always on time and goes above and beyond what is asked of her. Our dogs enjoy spending time with Jocelyn and she is always thinking of activities that keep them happy and give them plenty of exercise. She has stayed with our dogs overnight when needed and has always provided excellent care for them. We would highly recommend Jocelyn for all your dog sitting needs!

Jocelyn is the most loving dog person I ever met. She goes above and beyond to make sure the dog is not only having fun, but also feels comfortable while with her. I don’t trust a lot of people with my dogs because she deaf, but “ Jocelyn has always taken great measures to ensure that my dog is safe with her. It is hard to trust people to walk your furry family memebers, but your dog will be in great hands with Jocelyn.

I am writing to share my experience with Jocelyn, who has cared for our various pets for several years. Jocelyn has provided exceptional care for our dogs and cats. She has a great personality and lots of energy which works well with our dogs. All of our pets love Jocelyn and she has stayed overnight as well as handled short term needs for us. Jocelyn is very patient with our pets and interacts with them in a loving manner. We would highly recommend Jocelyn for any pet needs you may have. She is great to work with!!

If I am sitting for you, I am happy to maintain a normal routine, or take the pup on some adventures that maybe you don’t have time for in your schedule but want them to enjoy from time to time. I will abide by the rules you have in place for your pals. I am big on consistency with dogs, especially puppies as they tend to test the rules! Especially when they think the new person doesn’t know the deal, lol. Just like kids! I am happy to do whatever makes you and your animals comfortable and satisfied.

Information Jocelyn H. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences here! I would like to know the answers to typical questions such as: How well do they interact with other dogs? How about other animals? Any recent injuries I should know about? Any physical limitations? How about favorite pass times? Frisbee/fetch, or are they more of a lapdog? The answers to these questions will help me give our pals the best care possible when I’m around. Do they have food allergies or restricted diets? I like to train with treats and so it is helpful for me to know what I can pick up or have around for them in case there’s not any around the house from time to time.

A typical day

Walks, runs, hikes, frisbee, fetch, I can practice dog tricks, can also help with training younger dogs. I also enjoy relaxing with older dogs that mostly want to lap sit and nap (who doesn’t! Lol). I'm easy going and happy to do whatever our pals are up for.
