Who lets the dogs out? I do!
Pet care experience
I’d love to meet your dog! I have experience with anxious and high energy dogs. I reinforce a dogs positive habits with treats, pets, and play! I grew up with 4 dogs, and a year ago I adopted my a cattle dog mix named Sky. I also have a cat, Poppy, who i adopted 3 years ago. I love my animals & they’re my family. I will treat your animals like my family too!
Reviews
Josie is awesome, does well with my “problem” child, and keeps me well-informed on how the walk went. I never have to worry about my dog when I’m away.
Again, excellent care from Josie. Will definitely hire her again.
Josie is the best! Punctual and thorough in her reports. Took plenty of pix of my pet. I will definitely hire her again.
Does great with my boy, I know he’s in good hands.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
safety is priority to me. I always position myself between the dog and anything that could be scary or hazardous to the dog (ex; car, another dog, bike) when walking. I understand every animal is different and I want to understand your dogs needs. I want to understand each dog. I keep phone use to an absolute minimum while walking your dog to ensure safety. Except when I use my phone to take cute pictures of your dog for you! I love to give my cat treats, play with her with toys, and lots of pets! I bring her outside in the summer to explore. I clean her litter box, give her wet food, and dry food. I have given pets medication before.
Information Josie F. would like to know about your pet
I love to know all about your animal. What is their attitude towards meeting new people? Do they have triggers I should be aware of? Any special commands you're working on teaching them that you want me to help with?
A typical day
I love to walk, hike, and run with my dog! We go for lots of outdoor adventures to the beach or park. I have a 30 foot long leash for to-go games of fetch. If we have to be inside we will play mentally stimulating games like "unroll the towel for treats inside", hide-and-seek, or scent games to find treats!

Availability
I am working full time in the evenings. I have mornings / early afternoon availability before 2pm. I could check on animals during the morning/afternoon and let your dog go potty outside, or have a little walk while you are at work! My schedule is M-F so I have weekends more open for longer / higher care jobs. For example, if you go on a weekend trip and need someone to watch your dog, puppy, cat, rabbits, ect. I would love to care for your pet!
