I've had different pets my whole Life. And been working with animals for most of it. I am cpr first aid for pets. I currently own 2 dogs of my own. A mixed chihuahua that i rescued, and a high energy German shepherd that weighs alil over 85 pounds. I have self experience with training dogs since puppies for friends and my own. Ive always been the go to person to take care of my friends animals while they are away Or for family members. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages & sizes up to 100 pounds. I also have experience giving medication as well. Also experience with slight reactive dogs. I'm also a big cat person although I don't own any currently I use to in the past. I don't mind cleaning up after them and having playtime and tons of snuggles. I do have volunteer experience for the kittens and cats for my local petcos. I play with them , help socialize the kittens and feed/clean up after them.

Josephine was amazing with Bentley!! She kept me updated with pictures throughout the day and always responded quickly. She even brought him a new lamb chop (his favorite) and squeaky toys which I thought was the sweetest touch! My dog got stung by a bee and was really spooked/uncomfortable. She stayed with him and kept me in the loop the whole time. It really gave me peace of mind knowing he was with someone who truly cared!! I’d absolutely recommend Josephine and will definitely be using her again! Bentley loved her!
