Safety, trust & environment

For dog-sitting, I follow all of your care instructions, including for specialized diets and medication. I'm very attentive to the dog's needs and desires and will answer to them promptly.

Information Joséphine M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any allergies, oral medications, and particular behaviours I should be wary of with your pet (for example, do they pull on the leash).

A typical day

We start the day with a walk or playtime, whatever the dog is used to. Your dog and I find a field or a park where we can play and practice commands, if that's what's needed. Once, we're back home, I feed your dog, who is now relaxed and happy.

Attentive Dogcare!🐕🦮🐕‍🦺

Pet care experience

Use code JOSEPM64384 for $40 off! Hi! I'm Josephine, an experienced dog sitter and returning adult student. This might sound cliche, but dogs are my absolute favourite animals! I treat animals with as much respect as I would a human being. I have an intuitive, receptive, and education-based approach to caregiving (I read a couple books). My 5 years of experience includes taking care of reactive dogs, dogs using wheelchairs, young ones and seniors. 
 I'm happy to integrate whatever your dog needs during pet-sits, drop-ins, and walks, such as treats and basic training they're already working on. I've trained my previous dog to do a few things as an adult, so I'm familiar with the process, but I'm not a trainer myself. For dog-sitting, I'm 100% respectful of your home, so I do my best to keep everything in tact, clean, and tidy.

Josephine was great with our puppy. She was punctual, attentive, send regular updates, and was great with our puppy!

Josephine has an energy that had my dog fall in love immediately. I was grateful for her flexibility

My second time booking with Josephine and it was very comforting to have her take after our very complicated and high-energy dog. I'm very sorry that she is moving away because I would be less stressed about taking a vacation every once in a while.

Both me and my dog are big fans! I have a disabled dog who uses a wheelchair and so finding a dog walker who was comfortable getting her in and out of her wheels for walks was a bit of a challenge. But Josephine was willing to learn and now does it with ease which is such a relief to know that we have a person able to help when we need it. Josephine is so sweet and caring with our pup, I feel confident that she is in great hands on walks and when Josephine watches her !
