Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I schedule time for feeding, fresh water, exercise, and one-on-one attention to make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I plan my day around their needs, including walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions like medications or training.

Information Jocelyn R. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know a few key things about your pet ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible, including their daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, as well as any medical conditions, medications, allergies, or behavioral quirks like anxiety, aggression, or fears. I also like to understand their temperament, how they interact with people or other animals, and emergency contact information for you and your vet, so I can keep everything consistent, safe, and comfortable while you’re away.

A typical day

I like to keep things fun, engaging, and tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level by mixing active play like fetch, tug-of-war, and long walks for high-energy pets with gentler options like short strolls, cuddle time, and calm enrichment for older or more relaxed animals. I always adjusting activities to what each pet enjoys most so they feel comfortable, entertained, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is my strong focus on safety, consistency, and personalized care. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—every pet has different needs, and I make sure to follow their routine closely so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I’m very attentive to behavior and can quickly spot changes that might indicate discomfort or illness. I also have experience working with puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I reinforce basic training like potty routines, leash manners, and positive behavior. With senior pets, I’m patient and gentle, making sure they’re comfortable, keeping up with medications if needed, and adjusting activity levels to suit them. Communication is another area where I stand out—I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed check-ins so owners always know their pet is safe and well cared for. Overall, I aim to give pets a calm, structured, and safe environment while giving owners complete peace of mind.

Masha had a great time. Jocelyn was super communicative and very accommodating for what a weirdo Masha is. No notes!

Amazing experience with Jocelyn! She kept me updated with photos, was always responsive, and took amazing care of my dog and my exotic pets (rabbit and rats). I felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend. Will definitely be booking again soon!

I can’t say enough good things about our sitter. Jocelyn went above and beyond to make sure our pet was happy, safe, and loved. The daily updates meant so much to us, and it was clear our pet has bonded with her. It’s such a relief to find someone we can fully trust our pet with. We will definitely be booking again! Thanks again Jocelyn. You're amazing!
