Pet care experience

Hiya, I'm JJ! Note to owners and new clients: I will not walk your dog if the temperature is/due to be over22°C. I will attend any bookings to offer your pet play and affection in your home and/or garden and continue with walking when the temperatures are cooler and safer for your pet. I offer dog walking and drop ins for pawsome pooches in and around Kettering (I'm also more than happy to do drop-ins for all other animals). I have first hand experience caring for: cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, mice, sheep, llamas, alpacas, horses, donkeys, snakes, and wildlife such as birds, birds of prey, hedgehogs etc °°°Certified Canine and Equine Acuscope and Myopulse Therapist °°°5+ years experience with animals through paid and volunteer work at animal rescue shelters, dog kennels, catteries and farms I live with my own beautiful furbabies who are all large / giant breed dogs so you can be confident in my experience in dealing with strong (and stubborn) dogs. I have recently hand reared a litter of puppies administering all feeds, warmth and medicines, so if your pet is on the younger side you can be confident in leaving their care to me. I love all all animals and spending time with them; going on adventures and getting to know each of their personalities. I have my own car so we can go for fun walks in the area if your dog needs a more stimulating walk. Thanks fur reading 😁

Friendly, professional and conscientious pet sitter. She listened to us and made sure all requirements; dietary, medication, behavioural, were catered for when looking after our cat. She gave us thorough daily updates when we were away, with detailed information and photos. We were also able to contact her at any time, and mention anything else in case we forgot. Very good service received and a happy pet outcome. Would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. Will use again, A*

I would recommend Josephine to all of my family and friends. She is very professional and friendly and took extremely good care of my cat whilst we were on holiday. The reports and photos put my mind at rest and it was lovely to see that my cat was happy whilst we were away.

JJ is absolutely fantastic and takes such good care of our puppy. Every drop in visit she gives me a full report on how he is and it puts me at ease whilst being at work. We are very grateful JJ is very flexible with us and so glad we have a trustworthy dog sitter

Whilst pet sitting, I offer your pet company and comfort; feeding, play, cuddles, short walks and toilet breaks. If they get muddy, then I am happy to clean them and stay with them while they dry. I am able to administer oral medicines.

Information Josephine R. would like to know about your pet

For dog walking, I often like to bring my own dog along, however if your dog is unable to walk with other dogs or you'd prefer your dog to have my sole attention, just let me know beforehand I like to know a little about their behaviours and personality, as well as training. Are they recall trained? Do they have any fears? Any guarding or aggressive traits? Also, are there any activities they are unable to do/not allowed to do? Any allergies or dietary requirements?

A typical day

I always try to go exciting new places within the local area and change it up on a daily basis. Treat treasure hunts, playing fetch or tug, going swimming etc. I especially enjoy long countryside walks, on the river sides or around lakes. Don't worry though, I make sure that I do not leave them wet or muddy!
