Part Time Dog & Puppy walker/sitter

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of horses and dogs for around ten years now. I also have owned two dogs of my own and have had experience in training four of them. I am currently a college student at Madison College with plans to get my bachelor's degree in Zoology at UW-Madison. Then I'm planning on getting my master's in Animal Behavior. I've been passionate about animals ever since I can remember. And this site should allow me to expand my bond with dog's of all types as well as learn more from the owners. I am very capable of adapting to the dog's personality and needs as well as the owners. I usually walk dog's for around 45 minutes to an hour depending on the energy level of the dog. My availability is fairly flexible, I do have classes and work to fit into the schedule. During the school year (September to May) I am NOT sleeping over at people's houses anymore. I will, however, let your dog out/walk your dog several times a day. That includes one right before bed and right away in the morning.

Jocelyn was great! She walked my dog Wiinie several times over the weekend and sent numerous pictures. Winnie was having a good time I could tell. Would highly recommend and I will call on her again.

Jocelyn is a lifesaver. She was able to take care of my pup while I was away on a short-notice trip. She was extremely accommodating and very friendly! I highly recommend her as a pet-sitter and would definitely choose her again!

I call Jocelyn the dog whisperer. She loves being with animals and is able to teach them commands and tricks. She really understands them and if she thinks they are anxious or upset, even knows how to give them a calming massage that she learned from training horses. Even more, dogs love and respond to Jocelyn because of her caring ways and attention and interaction with them. You could not hire a better dog sitter.

Jocelyn watches my dogs all the time! She has even groomed/bathed them multiple times when I have asked. She's really good at making the dogs listen to her and she gets along well with both of my dogs that are opposites!

Information Jocelyn M. would like to know about your pet

I am open to all breeds and kinds of dogs. If the dog has any past with aggression or problem areas I am still willing to work with the dog. I can also offer some tips on how to help the dog lose that habit.

A typical day

On a walk,a dog should expect to go on paths and into dog parks (if able). I usually go to a place that also has swimming and paths, but also a big open space for ball throwing.
