Safety, trust & environment

I am comfortable with hanging out with your pet in your home and have a car that I can take your pet to any favorite parks in the area. If there’s any training being done, I am more than willing to follow specific instructions to help continue that.

Information Josephine B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any medications or special needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications. I am also comfortable with most breeds and am strong enough to walk large, strong dogs.

A typical day

I love to play with dogs. We will go for walks around the neighborhood/in local parks. I will bring them to the dog park if they’re friendly with other dogs where they can play with others and we can play fetch. I also love to sit and hang out, if that’s what they’d like to do.

Pet care experience

I’ve been actively sitting on Rover for almost two years and I’ve taken care of large and small breeds of dogs since I was a child through their senior years. I also grew up with indoor/outdoor cats turned fully indoor and have experience with escape artists. I currently have four cats and have adopted senior cats in the past and am familiar with administering oral medicines.

Josephine, was wonderful with my kitty. The pictures she sent everyday gave me so much peace of mind seeing how happy my kitty was to see her and that he was safe! 12/10 would book again.

Josephine did a great job taking care of my two large dogs while I was away for 5 days. She sent pictures of the dogs everyday and made sure they felt right at home. The house was taken care of and she left it cleaner than it started. Would definitely book again

Josephine jumped in at the last minute and gave amazing care for my cat who needs regular prescription food and fresh water, and for our outdoor bird feeders and bird baths. She followed my directions to a T and kept in constant communication regarding her activities, complete with photos each time, as well as regular updates regarding my cat’s ability to urinate (the issue he struggles with). She even offered to dispense meds if needed. Thank you so much, Josephine. You’re an awesome caregiver, and I was able to have a worry-free weekend with my granddaughter and her dog💝

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
