Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or has any recurring issues that I may then be mindful of. I want you and your dog to have a great experience!

We spend time outdoors, and on walks. I give organic treats only with permission from the owner, and lots of belly, chest, and ear rubs! I love all dogs of all breeds!

☀️Love knows no bounds! 🐾

Pet care experience

I’ve safely and lovingly cared for animals since I was a wee one! From our large and small breed dogs to cats, birds, mice. I am the proud co-parent of Great Pyrenees twins. I have loads of flexibility and love house sitting for half a day or more, walks with well-behaved fur babies, and hosting them at my place when I can!

My little ole man, Desi, just loved Jo AND her own dogs! I will use Jo again. She is trustworthy and Desi was comfortable with her. She gave him his meds & only the food I provided personally. 5 out of 5!

Josephine is great with pets, she took great care of my 3 dogs while I traveled around the country. She is very reliable and highly recommended.
