Licensed Veterinary Technician

Hi! My name is Josephine! I am a licensed veterinary technician who has worked in a variety of animal related fields for the past 5 years. I am comfortable with various species, sizes, and special needs animals (medical/behavioral). I am proficient in offering specialized care if needed such as insulin injections, subcutaneous fluids, oral and transdermal medication administration and so on! I currently work for the zoo here in town and enjoy pet sitting/walking as a way to connect with my community.

Josephine was lovely! She took excellent care of my cat and was very easy to work with. My cat is picky about her people and seemed to really enjoy Josephine's calm and kind energy.

Josephine was really great!!! Easy to work with. Came home to great house with most important, happy cats. Loved the photo updates. And her learning the crazy cat characteristics they have. Like one loving plastic and getting excited about Amazon packages! Looking to booking many more with her. Thank you!

Josephine took care of my 2 senior cats again. One gets insulin twice a day and, on top of that, was still dealing with a stomach issue (ugh!) of sorts. She not only came by and gave the shots but arranged to get more medicine from the vet and gave that to him as well. She went above and beyond. Would definitely call on her again. Highly recommend. So glad to have found her.

Josephine is a life-saver! I needed someone to visit my cats while I was out of town. One of my guys has to have insulin twice a day and Josephine is experienced in giving injections. At the last minute he was given another medication for a recent bout of diahrea (ugh!) and she had no problem adding it to the task list (and the meds helped!). It is a comfort knowing that she also works for a local vet. She came over ahead of time to meet my guys and get the key. Very sweet demeanor. My little ones are shy but I'm sure they were comfortable with her. I've scheduled her to come again and I feel I can relax and know that things will be taken care of. So thankful to find someone I can count on.

Crumpet was very happy and contented to have Josephine looking after him. She arrived promptly each day at her appointed time and followed all of her directions precisely. She is an excellent sitter whom I highly recommended.

So, I'm reluctant to leave this review. Its like finding the perfect diner no one has discovered yet. You want to tell people about how amazing it is to keep it in business. But you don't want it to become too successful that you won't be able to find a seat. Well, that is this young lady. Josephine was perfect with our four dogs. Not a push over, because the 130lb bullmastiff cant be allowed to run the house. But she would sit on the ground and spend time loving on them since we were away for so long. She has also worked in a veterinary office. You cant get any better of a walker

Schedule

Since I do work full-time, I will be able to do a quick stop in before work in the morning, and during my lunch break. After work in the evening I am able to spend as much time with your pet as you are comfortable with! My days off are Sun/Mon so I am more available then!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Josephine can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
While I’m willing to work with any special type of furry friend, I just need to know the best way to keep both of us safe! Medical needs are also a first priority of course.
