Highlights
Pet care experience
Fulltime sitter, Quality Care 24/7
Hi there! I’m a retired, full-time, stay-at-home pet sitter, which means I can give your furry friend all the time, attention, and love they deserve. I’m not doing this for the money, but because I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and making them feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel like my home is their home.

Ratings and reviews
We were visiting DC from out of state for the 4th and wanted to visit the Great American State Fair, and not only was it WAY too hot outside for our standard poodle, but dogs weren’t allowed in the festival. We messaged Josefa to check on her availability and within hours we were dropping our baby off and she was gracious enough to allow us an 11:30pm pickup. Josefa sent us pictures during Cliff’s stay and he looked relaxed and seemed excited to see us when we picked him up, but otherwise calm and not at all stressed. I have a feeling he just got petted and loved on the whole time he was there. Highly recommend this very responsive and super sweet sitter. Thank you again Josefa for taking such good care of our Cliff!!
Josefa was very kind to accommodate a last- minute request and took excellent care of our dog. Would definitely recommend!
This is our second time having Josefa care for our 5 year old pup. Josefa is incredibly warm and our dog clearly loves spending time with her! We particularly like that she has a yard for our dog to enjoy. We look forward to having Josefa dogsit in the future.
I completely understand why Josefa is highly rated. From the start, through a hiccup, Josefa was incredibly gracious and accommodating. LouLu was happy, got pictures. Our go-to!! Hands down, AWESOME!!
Josefa was great with our little Boston named Jozey! We could tell Jozey was very comfortable with Josefa, who took excellent care of her. We would hire her again for sure. Thank you Josefa!
Josefa took great care of our dog Lyle!

Schedule
I only care for up to two dogs at a time to ensure every pet gets plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, and cuddles. Since I’m retired, I’m always available and can happily take last-minute bookings. You’ll never have to hesitate, I believe pet sitting is more than just a service; it’s about building lasting relationships with pets and their owners.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a house with a large, fenced-in yard where your pup can safely run, play, and enjoy plenty of outdoor fun! Inside, your dog will feel right at home, my goal is to make their stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I treat every pet like family, so they’re free to relax wherever they feel most comfortable. Of course, if you prefer certain rules (like keeping them off the sofa), I’ll make sure to follow your training routines to keep things consistent for your dog. Thank you for choosing me to care for your furry loved one. I can’t wait to welcome them into my home! 🐾
