Comfortable with almost any animal

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and have loved them since I was a toddler. I’ve kinda always helped my family feed and take care of animals. When I was around ten years old I started dog sitting with the help of my dad. I began to actually watch them on my own once I was 13. I also have experience staying overnight to watch dogs. I love taking them on walks and playing with them. Although I don’t have as much experience with cats, they are some of my favorite animals and I have also loved them for as long as I can remember and currently have a cat of my own.

Josie watched our 2 dogs and there were no problems. She stated they ate well and she walked them at least 2xday. House was clean when we got home. She did send pictures almost daily which was nice.

Josie was wonderful with our two anxious pups! She sent pictures often and was always responsive. We will definitely book her again!

Josie was great, very good with the animals. She sent pictures and kept them active while we were away. We’d definitely have her back!

Safety, trust & environment

While I currently don’t live in a place that accommodates multiple pets, in the past I have made sure there the area is clean enough for pets to be safe and healthy in. On walks I also make sure to watch the dog and check up on them to make sure they’re alright.

Information Josie A. would like to know about your pet

How big they are, how social they are with other dogs, and how trained they are. No answer will turn me away from your pet, I just like to know what to expect.

A typical day

I like to walk dogs to the park so that they can run around and play with other dogs. If there not that social with other dogs then I’ll just take them in a walk to explore the neighborhood. I also love playing tug of war with dogs and fetch is always a favorite. If they won’t eat their food I find playing a game with them while feeding them works really well.
