Safety, trust & environment

I decided to start offering daycare and boarding after briefly working at a dog daycare, where I was appalled at the uncaring treatment the dogs received. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I will go above and beyond to ensure they have a wonderful experience. Dogs stay cage-free during the day in a cozy lounge designed just for them, with a large tv that plays dog friendly shows, couches, beds, toys, dog puzzles and more. I also make homemade treats and food that your dog is welcome to while they stay here. We’ll also enjoy leashed adventures on my 2.5-acre property. Cats have their own spacious room with climbing trees, cozy beds, scratching posts, and large windows for bird-watching. If your pet needs quiet time or special care, I offer private spaces and tailor everything to their needs.

Information Jocelynn A. would like to know about your pet

I offer complimentary meet-and-greets to get to know you and your pet! This is the perfect time to share all the little details that make your pet unique—their personality, routine, favorite toys, and any special needs or care preferences. Whether it’s helping them feel secure, tailoring activities to their energy level, or sticking to their specific feeding schedule, I’ll make sure they have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. You’ll also have a chance to see the space, ask questions, and feel confident that your pet is in good hands.

A typical day

Pets get breakfast, dinner, and treats. Dogs go for leashed walks on my beautiful 2.5-acre property, full of lush greenery, trees, and open spaces to explore. It’s the perfect spot for sniffing, stretching their legs, and enjoying nature. We’ll spend the day playing, walking, and cuddling. At night, most dogs sleep in kennels for comfort and safety, but if your dog needs something different—like sleeping in a private space or even with me—I’ll make sure they’re cozy and happy. Cats spend their day in a fun, cat-friendly space with toys, climbing trees, scratchers, and bird-watching windows. For cats who enjoy it, I’ll provide playtime with toys or spend time giving them love and attention, and cats who prefer a quiet spot to relax will have plenty of great options. My goal is to make every pet feel like they’re part of the family and have such a fun and engaging stay that they’ll be excited to come back!

Pet care experience

Animals are my passion, and I’ve devoted my life to helping them. I have 25 years of experience rescuing and fostering dogs and cats and volunteering at rescues. I’ve cared for hundreds of pets of all ages and temperaments, and I have plenty of experience helping animals with special health or behavioral needs. Whether your pet needs medication (pills or injections) or just some extra TLC, they’re in safe, loving hands. I do boarding and doggy day care for small dogs up to 25 lbs and senior pups (8 years+) up to 40 lbs.

Jocelynn is amazing. Our pup needs a little extra love and attention and Jocelynn went above and beyond. She made homemade treats (obviously checking beforehand if it was okay with us), gave him toys he brought home, sent regular updates and photos, and more. Couldn't recommend her more and will be using her services again!

Jocelynn went above and beyond while caring for my cats. She is now definitely the only local sitter I'll be booking with. Her passion for animal care is evident and inspiring. ✨️

Jocelynn was an amazing help to me and my partner as first time cat owners! Her wealth of knowledge and genuine love and care for our cat before we adopted him, as well as while she was catsitting, is more amazing than we could have asked for. I would recommend Jocelynn to anyone in a heartbeat!
