Pet care experience

Loving, Caring dog enthusiasts !

I am the oldest daughter in my family and I have always loved dogs. Growing up in Switzerland we had a West Highland Terrier that I loved so much and since then my Dad had ROVER for a long time and we babysat dogs for the past 10 years. Now that I live on my own I wanted to continue on, especially since I have some more time living in Paris. (Je suis l’aînée de ma famille et j’ai toujours adoré les chiens. J’ai grandi en Suisse, où nous avions un West Highland Terrier que j’adorais énormément. Depuis, mon père utilise Rover depuis de nombreuses années, et nous avons gardé des chiens ensemble pendant près de 10 ans. Maintenant que je vis seule, j’avais vraiment envie de continuer à garder des chiens de mon côté, surtout que j’ai un peu plus de temps depuis que je vis à Paris. J’adore passer du temps avec eux, m’en occuper et leur donner toute l’attention dont ils ont besoin)

Our dog Meli enjoyed her stay with Joleen. She came home happy and tired!

Joleen took care of Peggy for just over a week and appeared to have a great time. Peggy was happy and excited when we picked her up and seemed to enjoy her vacation. Would recommend Joleen and would definitely use her again in the future.

Joleen took care of Moxie for a week and she seems to have had a blast! She sent pictures and gave us updates on how she was doing and she was communicative and professional. We hope to be able to use her again!

Joleen was wonderful. Last minute booking due to Covid cancellation,but she was able to accommodate my pups at last minute. My pups were happy and had a ball. Would recommend Joleen to anyone looking for sitter.

Schedule

Just moved to Paris last month & am still looking for a job so this is the perfect side hustle for me. I have lots of time do go on walks, play with the dogs, and see if I could get one for myself (Je viens de m’installer à Paris le mois dernier et je suis encore à la recherche d’un emploi, donc garder des chiens est l’activité parfaite pour moi en ce moment. J’ai beaucoup de temps pour faire de longues balades, jouer avec eux et leur donner toute l’attention dont ils ont besoin. Et puis, c’est aussi une belle façon pour moi de voir si je serais prête à avoir mon propre chien un jour!)
