I absolutely love dogs!
Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Josie, and I absolutely love dogs! I have two big dogs of my own and have had dogs my entire life. I volunteer at the local animal shelter as a dog walker. I am also a member of their rescue intervention and support program team, a member of their dog behavior team, and also a member of the young professionals board at the shelter. I am looking to help people in need in caring for their pups whenever needed - which would include walking, feeding, administering medications, playing with them, and cuddling! I can do drop ins and/or walks. If your dog is in need of training, I can help you with that, too! I have 20+ years experience in training dogs and would love to help you with yours. L)
Reviews
I have volunteered with Josie for a year now and have observed her often handling dogs. She is great at handling both small and large dogs and always approaches the animals with kindness and compassion. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a pet caregiver and walker.
Josie is a very patient and kind person. She volunteers at an animal shelter and is very gentle towards small and large breeds of dogs. She is able to handle difficult situations due to her training as a volunteer dog walker. Josie will devote her attention when caring for your animals to ensure they are getting the best care while you are away. As a fellow animal lover, she understands how stressed animals can be when their owners are away.
I've know Josie for almost four years. I've seen her with both of her dogs, which she affectionately refers to as "her boys." They're both well loved and well trained. She spends her free time volunteering at an animal shelter. Josie is also a coworker of mine, and I can attest to her professionalism and sense of responsibility. She's also assisted me while I was fostering two kittens, even though she didn't have to. She's a kind, caring, animal lover!
Josie and I have been volunteering together at Heartland Animal Shelter as dog walkers. She is great with doggies of all sizes and breeds and has a very calm demeanor which I think is really great to have when working with shelter dogs or other dogs she may not be familiar with. I think she’d make a great dog walker for your company!!
