Pet care experience

For as long as I can remember, my family has had dogs, but it wasn't until 16 years ago that I had my own dog that I took great care of. I like to run so exercise for your dog (if he is active) will not be lacking during his stay with me and if he is not very active I have a large backyard where he can stretch his paws.

Jocelyn and her family was amazing with our dog Wisp. It was our first time using the rover app to book a dog sitter, and we struck gold with find Jocelyn. See sent videos and photos everyday and kept us in the loop about how wisps days went. She had so much fun running around her yard playing on the water and getting lots of exercise. We can’t wait for wisp to stay at Jocelyn’s home again - and would HIGHLY recommend anyone to book with her. You won’t be disappointed 🙏🏼♥️

Jocelyn was so communicative and kind in every interaction! Our pup seemed like she was having a great time with Jocelyn and the other dogs at her home. She came home happy! We will definitely be booking again in the future!

Jocelyn had been our go-to sitter, but unfortunately our recent experience was disappointing. An incident involving my dog was not communicated to me directly, and I only learned about it through Rover, which was concerning. Following that, she canceled a future booking and stopped responding altogether instead of addressing the situation with me. I understand that dogs can be unpredictable at times, which is exactly why clear and timely communication is so important. As a pet owner, I rely on transparency and professionalism, especially when it comes to my dog’s well-being. I would have appreciated an open conversation rather than a lack of communication.

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.
