Highlights
Pet care experience
All creatures big and small
I grew up around animals and have been trusted with caring for the pets of family and friends since I was a teenager. I have experience with a variety of dog breeds from big to small, energetic to couch potatoes. I also have a professional background in animal care and behavior in an aquarium setting. This means I not only have experience with domestic animals but also exotics! I have experience working with geriatric animals and animals with special medical needs too. I'm excited to get to know you and your pet!
Cat care experience
Jocelyn also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a professional background in animal care and behavior in an aquarium setting which means I have many years of professional animal care experience. I have worked with a variety of pets and exotics and have experience pet sitting for animals in both categories. I have experience administering medications to animals (oral and injectable) as well. My job is to give the best care to all kinds of animals and enrich their lives. I believe I'll be able to do the same for yours.
Ratings and reviews
We booked Jocelyn to do house/pet-sitting for 7 nights while we were away for work and to get married. It was extremely important for us to have someone who would treat our home with respect and also treat our pup, Nadira, like she was part of the family. Jocelyn did just that. Due to several plumbing issues inside and outside our home the 3 weeks prior to her staying in our home, we couldn't set our entire home up for her in time, but her guest suite was clean and ready before we departed. We appreciate the grace she showed us in that department. Instructions were followed on feeding our service dog and feedback was provided as a learning experience for us on grooming and the lights in the house for us to add to our checklist in the future. Thank you, Jocelyn, for caring for our baby. 💜
Jocelyn went above and beyond while visiting with my 12 year old dog that is afraid of everything! She was so patient and even so sweet about having to clean up after my dog. She's true gem!
Kept us up to date throughout the weekend. Asked good questions and went above and beyond in a few ways.
Jocelyn did a fantastic job with drop in visits for our cats Cacio and Pepe. She covered all their basic needs and favorite things on each visit. She even cleaned up when one of our cats got sick. Loved receiving photos each time she finished a check in! Would definitely book again in a heartbeat.
Jocelyn is awesome!! She is so attentive and a great communicator. Highly recommend having her as a pet sitter!
We hired Jocelyn to housesit our dog Arthur and she was fantastic! She was a great communicator from start to finish, sent us lots of photos, and went the extra mile to ensure he was well taken care of during our trip. She also left our house exactly as it was when we left and was a gracious guest. We would absolutely book her again!
