Extra time to hang with dogs!

Pet care experience

Lots of time to snuggle, go for walks, hang out with your pup/pups. I have experience with pet grooming, stubborn animals, shy animals, lazy animals, rowdy animal and come from a family with all shapes and sizes of dogs. Love being outside! Very timely, responsible and attentive to detail. Very cautious with security measures (e.g. making sure house doors are locked, fences closes, porch lights on at night, toys are pet friendly, etc.) Not shy when it comes to talking/singing to pets... they are the best listeners/audience after all! Spouse is also a dog lover (and slightly more energetic/plays fetch/rough houses with more playful pups) and will often help/join in with pet care.

I highly recommend Josie! She is friendly, and dependable, and accommodates my unpredictable schedule. I think my pups prefer to spend time with Josie and her family rather than me!

Josie was fabulous with our pups while we were out of town! This was our first time using Rover as we typically board them in a kennel, but our dogs clearly did not enjoy going to the kennel so we thought we’d try a drop-in sitter. Hopefully we never have to take them back to the kennel again! This worked out so well - Josie was so easy to work with on the visit schedule & we could tell when we got home that our dogs were cared for and happy. Couldn’t have asked for better!

I am a stay at home mama so my schedule is very relaxed! My husband is my second set of hands when it comes to caring for our visitors. He is great with keeping up with our active dog guests. He also the one who might greet you at our door!
