This was my first time using Rover or having a non-family member watch my dog, and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving him with Josie! She was so professional, welcoming, and genuinely loving toward our dog. She kept us updated throughout his stay, sent pictures, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good hands, and I could tell he enjoyed his time with her and his new dog friends. I would absolutely recommend Josie to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and reliable dog sitter.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 03, 2026

Was so relieved to hear my 2 dogs behaved well, and they seemed to have a lot of fun in the backyard. I had warned about my standoffish rescue and was relieved to hear there were no problems. My dog had no problem meeting Josie. I hope to return once we're visiting again!

Buddy had such a great time! Josie sent pictures and had great communication. They genuinely care about the dogs they are taking care of. Highly recommend for a worry free time when you need to be away from your fur babies!

Josie and Michael were great! Quick to respond and squeezed my pup in last minute. When I wasn’t able to pick my dog up the next morning, they were flexible and able to get her back to me in no time! Would recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large fully fenced yard. Your pets safety is our top priority, whether in our home or yours. Pets are never left alone outside 😀

A typical day

We love exercise. We enjoy walking dogs, playing fetch, tug of war, basically whatever your animal is capable of. For Senior canines, getting out and walking around is usually a good routine.

We would like to know how your dog is around other animals. We are firm believers animals shouldn't interact with other animals unless they've previously been introduced. Family members or not, they are still animals. We're looking out for their best interest.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
