Information Josephine L. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know if the dog suffers from separation anxiety and other special needs. As I may not be able to offer care for that particular dog.

A typical day

Usually I’ll take the dogs out for walks around the neighborhood and may take them to a local dog park. I can play with them using their favorite toys. Provide lots of cuddles.

Pets

Trusted, gentle small dog care

Pet care experience

I’m a calm, gentle caregiver who specializes in small dogs and understands how much comfort they find in familiar routines. As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to have someone warm, patient, and trustworthy looking after your pup. I offer drop-ins and short walks that keep your dog’s day running smoothly-whether they need a potty break, a little company, or a quiet walk with a steady, reassuring presence. I also offer dog boarding in my home. I’m detail-oriented, safety-focused, and always communicate clearly so you know exactly how your dog is doing. Your puppy will be cared for with kindness, consistency, and lots of love.

Great dog sitter. Our dog was very comfortable and happy with her. Will definitely book her again in the future!

Josephine was plaeasnat to work with and she got along very well with our dog, Milo. She sent us pictures once in a while and shared news of his status. She had a flexible schedule for meet and greet and her hom was very welcoming for Milo's stay. She didn't have a fenced in yard but that means that Milo gets a walk each time he goes to the bathroom.

Josephine was great with Chloe. She was caring and sweet. I was receiving updates with pictures while our dog was with her. Highly recommend!
