Pet care experience

Lover and hugger of fur friends ❤️

Hi! I’m Jocelyn. I’ve loved animals my entire life, and currently have two of my own — Benny and Kemba. I’ve been taking care of my pets, friends’ and families’ pets, and clients’ pets for 14 years now. I have experience caring for puppies, multiple dogs, cats, and dogs of all sizes. I’m an avid walker, and love to walk in the mornings during the hot summer days. If your dog loves long walks or long games of fetch, I’m your girl! I love to do some sensory enrichment on days when the weather doesn’t cooperate. Questions or concerns not answered? Feel free to message! I’d love to work something out with you for the benefit of your furry family member.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe in meeting dogs and families where they’re at. If your dog needs tons of exercise, I can do that! I make sure all dogs feel loved and secure when their humans are gone, so I speak to them and play games. My dogs, Kemba and Benny, go on long walks daily. Kemba goes on short and frequent walks, while Benny goes on one very long walk daily. Kemba has an obsession with tennis balls and thinks fetch is is his full time job. On the other hand, Benny wants nothing more than to cuddle, sunbathe, and use sensory mats. All that to say, regardless of what your pet needs, I will make it happen! A happy and enriched pet is what all animals deserve!

Jocelyn was wonderful. She took great care of the dogs and the house and was very attentive and communicative while we were gone. I highly recommend her and would use her again without question. Overall, it was a great experience.

Please let me know any quirks, needs, areas for attention your pet may have. As an owner of an incredibly anxious puppy — think medication during rain storms and actually enjoying wearing a cone —- , I know what it’s like to have a quirky pet. I’m here to help!
