Safety, trust & environment

When your fur-babies are staying with me, I can walk them around my neighborhood, and I can also take them to a few different parks nearby. My husband and I are outdoorsy people and definitely don’t mind taking them on hikes with us! As for care in your own home, I can take them for walks around your neighborhood as well, or whatever your preference is! As for potty breaks and feeding schedules, I will keep the same as your fur-babies are used to.

Information Jocelyn R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your furry loved ones have any dietary restrictions, allergies, or sensitivities so I can make sure to avoid them! If they have a specific routine, or require any medications I have no issue with accommodating. Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or if they don’t do well with other pets, or have temperament issues, as I do have a dog and cat of my own; I can put our cat in a separate area of the house if need be, but our dog, Mabel we cannot. If your pet struggles with separation anxiety I will do everything I can to make sure they feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away!

A typical day

Your loved ones will always be entertained while under my care! We can go on lots of walks, play with toys, and they will have another buddy to play with too; being my frenchton puppy, Mabel.

Pet care experience

I have about 20 years experience with pet care. Growing up I had 2 golden retrievers; Belle and Zelda; a golden doodle, Ellie; rescued cats, ranging from kitten to elderly; I raised rabbits, Guinea pigs, chickens, and more! I treat all animals with love, respect, and patience. I have experience with dog sitting for family and friends as well, whether that be stopping by to feed them and let them out for potty breaks and walks, or keeping them in my own home. I currently have one of my own. I have a two year old French bulldog Boston terrier mix named Mabel. Everyone she meets (animal or person) is her new best friend! I have experience with the following dog breeds; ranging from 10-120lbs, aged puppy to elderly. (although I love all breeds): chocolate labs, Aussie doodles, golden retrievers, golden doodles, chihuahuas, German shepherd/corgi/miniature pincer mix, and shitzu mix. I have experience with behavioral training as well with my own pets as well as those I have cared for in the past.

Jocelyn took great care of our care while we were away. She sent us pictures each time she came to feed our cat and we could tell the cat was happy to have her company.

I can't say enough good things about Jocelyn and the way she cares for Kali Girl. She keeps me updated, sends pictures and videos and always has a smile on her face. I'm completely at ease while I'm away from Kali knowing she's in great hands. Her furbaby Mabel, is a the best playmate. Kali always comes home tuckered out..

Jocelyn is so good with Kali. Her Mabel & Kali play until they exhaust themselves. I'm 100% at ease when Kali is in Jocelyns care. Highly recommend.

Jocelyn responded quickly to my booking request and made the process so effortless for me. Today was the 1st time I left Kali Girl, since I got her 4 months ago. Jocelyn was amazing and put my mind at ease with frequent updates and photos. Kali Girl was so happy to find a friend in Jocelyns' furbaby Mabel. They played each other out. My only regret is not finding Jocelyn sooner and taking some much needed me time. I've found my go to person for all of Kalis care, when I'm unavailable, from daily walks to overnight stays. I wouldn't think of taking her anywhere else. Thank you again. 10 ⭐️ REVIEW
