Will always shower pets with love!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Josephine, I love all things animals and am hoping to get one of my own soon. I have dog-sat and dog-watched several dogs over the last few years. I've decided to turn my passion for dogs into a side gig! I work from home Monday-Friday, and have a very flexible schedule so your pet will get lots of attention from me. I will cuddle, play, or snooze with your dog whenever they are in the mood to, I myself love a good game and nap! Your pets well-being is the number one priority for me. I will make every effort to provide them with comfort, attention, and a safe environment. I also love to take pictures and update owners as frequently as they request, you will never miss a cute moment with them!

This was our first booking with Josephine and she sat for our pup in our home. She is very reliable and trustworthy; a great, timely communicator; and super nice. Our very anxious pup was calm and content when we returned, and we have already made another booking :)

Josephine did so well with our crazy boy. Was very receptive to his needs and kept us updated with the walk. Beau looked so happy - I think he’s found a new friend ☺️

This was our first time getting a dog sitter for special needs pup, Gracie. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Josephine took amazing care of Gracie and will be our go-to dog sitter in the future. Highly recommend!

Josephine is excellent with our two rambunctious pups, she communicates in a timely manner, is pleasant and friendly and the pups look forward to her visit every day. She's got great skill at handling our two crazy beasts, and I very much appreciate her help!

Information Josephine M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you or your animal has any special preferences, needs or instructions! I would love to know how any quirks or behaviours, interactions with any dogs/animals, dietary needs, or how often you would like to be updated on your pet! I am happy to meet before a booking to get to know each other.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs both mentally and physically. Usually, with dogs I watch I provide as many walks as they need (I generally like to walk 2-4 times a day because I like being outside), as well as playing games (fetch, tug, any toys etc) within the property or house. If a dog or cat is lazier, I am happy to lounge around or just keep them company when I am working. However, I do try to mentally stimulate dogs or cats when I am caught up with work to keep things interesting.
