Veterinarian, special care and stay
Pet care experience
I have worked for more than 18 years as a veterinary professional in Brazil, my home country. Including more than 11 years of study and over 20 years of experience with various species and behaviors. This is more than a simple indication of who I am as a person who really loves animals and who is prepared to understand how to take care of your pet(s). Picture this: if you have a child and you are going out of town...imagine leaving your child in the pediatrician's house!!!! In absolute good hands. One of the add on services is that I have set up a baby bassinet by my bed to accommodate thoes pets who are accustomed to sleeping in bed. I have knowledge of pets and shelters, especially with dogs. I understand your pet's necessities, even when they have special needs (like medications 💊 , chronic diseases or taking care of lesions or post-surgical care). Our pet is treated as part of our family and yours will be treated in the same manner. I am married with 2 kids and a dog. We are not just pretty lovers, but we also love people. In our home your pet is welcome along with you and your family. Also, I offer house sitting at your home. Consider this option in case you have multiple animals and/or special needs. Sometimes this might be more comfortable and adequate for you and them. In life there are many moments, in a pets and their parents, when different arrangements and adjustments must be made. Please keep in mind that this is not a 24 h care. The most common service that I am able to provide is an overnigh care from 9 pm-6am, but like I mention, it can vary with your needs and my availability. Although I'm not providing clinical services, I'm able to recognize many symptoms and behaviors and either take action in an emergency or guide you in the right direction.
Reviews
Josi was such a great sitter for my dog she really enjoyed her time and l love how she was taken care of an even groom her for me , l look forward in taken her back to josi again
Words can’t express or describe how thankful we are for Josi and her husband! I had a last minute family emergency and they didn’t hesitate to jump in and take care our baby when we were away! Lilly was extremely happy with them and got along with there animals great! I would highly recommend 10/10 stars a million if i could! Will definitely be booking again!
Absolutely incredible experience. I have two Shihtzus. One is 16 and the other is 4 and really love to snuggle and attention. I got l several videos and pictures daily. Great communication! It’s a family business and even their sons gave them lots of love. I’m very particular. My dogs are my family. I would recommend Josi to everyone! She’s a dog whisperer I think. My dogs loved her! Honestly if you try her once you’ll be hooked. I know I am.
I had a great experience! Josi was available on short notice, which I appreciate so much! My puppy was loved on like family and well cared for today.

Safety, trust & environment
We live in a spacious house with a large a backyard and a lake to walk around. I have a fenced play area (in phase of some improvements to be an amazing place). My neighborhood is calm and safe for regular walks and our street ends in a cul-de-sac. We provide diffuser (pheromones), some toys and treats to help with the anxiety.
Home
Information Josi S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know as much as you can about your dog behaviors and needs. Is it possible, make a list including: Dietary needs and feeding times/portions. Behavioral concerns. Disabilities (blindness, deafness, etc.). Known allergies. And anything that you think is important to let me know about your precious one.
A typical day
I will have playtime with your dog, since this moment is very important for his growth, socialization and development. Dogs in general love to play, fetch, and tug. But it will be very helpful if you tell me what your dog likes the most and if he/she has a favorite toy, please bring it. Bone or something to chew on is very helpful... most of dogs love it.
