Our Bailey cries when she comes in the door. She had to pick her up as soon as Josephine puts down whatever she was holding. She is like family to us.

Josephine was a fantastic sitter for our 6 pound Maltese. She stayed in our home with our dog for the week and left the house clean and tidy. We received multiple pictures daily and we could see that our dog was very happy. We will definitely be using Josephine in our future as she is trustworthy, kind and very caring.

She is the best dog sitter we have ever had. Bailey loves her also which is so important.
