In all the time I've known Jo, she has loved animals. For a few times while we were out of town, she's come over and taken care of our cat. Each time she has followed our instructions exactly, and kept our cat company, ensuring that she had a loving and compassionate person to keep her from being lonely while we are gone. I would highly recommend Jo as a pet sitter.

We travel several times a year and Josephine does an outstanding job giving our baby Queen lots of loving when we are out of town. Queen is our 12 yr old senior cat who needs lots of attention. Josephine makes sure she has fresh water and is fed everyday, and her cat litterbox cleared daily as well. She gives her snuggles and plays with her and does an excellent job. She texts me frequent updates with pictures and I never have to worry about my Queen when I'm away.

Josephine has always been an animal advocate ever since she was a child and well into her adulthood. Her loving care and kindness towards pets shows, even for those that need the most attention. She has worked in animal advocacy for the last 15 years and is always excited and happy to be around pets. She fostered and adopted pets from shelters and has a dog and a cat herself, whom she loves very much. She will be a great addition to your team with her very soft heart that always melts with love for pets.

Josephine has cared for our pets on numerous occasions, and every experience has been outstanding. She is dependable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animal care. She consistently follows all feeding instructions and care routines, administers medications when needed, and makes sure our pets receive plenty of exercise and attention while we're away. For our dog, she goes above and beyond by cleaning up after him, taking him on walks, and engaging him with his favorite toys to help keep him active and happy. She is equally attentive to our cat, providing companionship and affection whenever she wants a cuddle buddy. One aspect we especially appreciate is Josephine’s thoughtful communication. She regularly sends photos and updates, giving us peace of mind and reassurance that our pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while we're away from home. We have complete confidence in Josephine and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy, professional, and compassionate pet sitter. Our pets clearly enjoy spending time with her, and we always return home to happy, well-cared-for animals.

Let me know if your dog has specific fears and how they typically interact with new people, particularly whether I should go slow or get right in there. I am great with shy and fearful dogs but the right approach is key.
