I will love your dog like my own :)
Pet care experience
I have had a dog since I was 10 and absolutely love dogs. I studied Animal Science with a pre-veterinary medicine concentration in hopes of attending Veterinary school in the future. Currently, I am working at the Whole Pet Vet Animal Hospital & Wellness Center and volunteer at the Dancing Cat Rescue. I am very observant and love to engage in fun with the animals that come into my life.
Reviews
Josephine did an incredible job taking care of our larger dog, who is generally anxious around new people! After our meet & greet, it was clear she’s incredibly experienced working with animals. She was patient and loving with our pup, and professional and communicative with us! We highly recommend Josephine and will definitely be booking her services again.
Thank you Josephine! After almost a week of being gone from my little guys, I am back. Josephine is very friendly and sent images when she could. My dogs looked healthy and happy when I came home!
Josephine is one of the most trustworthy, caring, and loving person when it comes to animals. She is a vibrant and energetic human who can keep up with even the youngest pups to the oldest and grumpiest dogs. She not only has a passion for their safety, but the intelligence to keep them safe. As an aspiring vet she has already begun to study how animals work and how best to take care of them. For these reasons I entrusted her with my dog (St. Bernard 9months old)and cat (tabby 3 years) when I was on vacation for three weeks to Korea. These animals have a very complicated diet and grooming schedule, which she was able to keep up with. They came back happy and full of life just like I left them. They even seemed quite reluctant to leave because they were so happy under her care. I would happily trust her with my animals again and 10/10 recommend her to everyone I meet with an animal.
About Josephine R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I start the day by taking them outside to for a potty break. I sometimes fit in a short morning walk but I like to reserve walks for the noon and/or afternoon. My little girl only needs one walk a day so I take her after work. I love playing fetch with bigger dogs and taking them to open spaces. (As long as they are flea and tick protected, if not we stay in known areas). My girl Zoey gets fed once a day at night with her wet food and is free fed throughout the day with dry food. I follow feeding instructions when it comes to other pets. Zoey doesn’t have any medication except for monthly preventative, but I have a lot of experience in adminstering medications to pets. Lots of cuddles and belly rubs all the time are dispensed.
Information Josephine R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your pets’ preferences and medical needs. I prefer mid sized older dogs but I am flexible and can work with all breeds.
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. I like to let dogs explore the neighborhood scents on walks and on weekends, I like to take them to venture to Almaden Park Lake if they have vaccinated and protected.
