Pet care experience

I will love your furry friends!

I'm back on Rover after a bit of life upheaval & house moving! Consistently dog sat multiple dogs whilst living in London and have looked after many friends and family dogs over the years whilst being unable to have one of my own. I love dogs and would love to be a dog mum one day! I had my own cats for 12 years and they were my absolute pride and joy! I will happily tailor any pet-sitting to the pet and owner; lots of playtime and cuddles or long walks and an afternoon nap, as long as your pet is happy, I'm happy!

Josie was amazing when looking after our dog Riley. As our first time using a sitter, we were a little anxious. However Josie put our minds at ease straight away and looked after riley like one of her own. Sending photos of their time together, riley loved Josie playing ball with him in the garden. I would 100% recommend Josie to look after your pet.

Josie was a brilliant dog-sitter. It was our first time using a dog-sitter that we didn't previously know, but we immediately felt at ease. She was communicative, respectful to our home and most importantly, our dog loved her. We'll definitely be booking again (and you should too)!

Josie was absolutely fabulous and we are so appreciative that she was able to stay with and look after our cat Juju for a whole week. Juju clearly took to her! Will definitely be asking her to look after our fur babies again. Thank you, Josie!

Stevie is always happy to see Josephine and comes back home at the end of the day well exercised.

Josephine has looked after our pooch several times, and all I can say is she gets the tailwag of approval every time! The most important thing is that our dog is happy, safe, and feels relaxed. The fact that she acts the same way when Josephine comes to look after her as when we come home says it all. In terms of the basics, Josephine is punctual, polite, professional, and will pay attention to your asks as well as your pets needs - what more can I ask for? Will absolutely use Josephine again to look after our furbaby...

Josephine looked after my dog Coconut many times throughout the past 5 years. She is extremely loving towards dogs. Josephine is great at responding quickly to her availability, taking Coconut on walks, and of course, giving her lots of belly rubs. I highly reccomend!

Safety, trust & environment

At all times, your pet's safety is the most important thing. I focus on instructions given by the owner, whilst developing a trusting & loving relationship with your pet.

A typical day

Each pet's needs are different, but unless otherwise advised by you, I can promise long walks/play in the park & enormous amounts of cuddles & tummy scratches! There are multiple beautiful green spaces near me for your dog to explore with me. If you & your pup are comfortable to have them in my car, I am also more than happy to drive them to an adventure more further afield!
