Safety, trust & environment

Give them lots of attention and love. The most important thing is your dog being happy, healthy, and safe. Therefore, I will do everything I can to make sure this happens, and follow their usual routine if they have one/your instructions carefully.

Information Josie P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any particular needs or preferences and I’ll do my best to try and work with you/them and accommodate.

A typical day

The day would start with an early morning walk (hopefully in the countryside). Then relaxing in the garden or on the sofa depending on the great British weather and of course having a play, maybe a few treats chucked in. I'd finish the day with another walk and then have some more cuddles while watching a movie (again more treats) :)

Pet care experience

up until recently I have had a little Westie. I have helped look after her from the age of 8 up until a few month ago, where she passed away at the age of 15. I therefore understand that older dogs often have different needs, or need to take things are their own pace. I have also dog sat for a family, who had a lovely black Labrador, which required me to feed and walk him, along with give him lots of cuddles and attention. With this experience and helping out other friends/family I know how to walk, feed and bathe dogs.

Josie arrived promptly and was very good with Sidney as he is an old bull dog. Understood Sidney’s needs and looked after him very well. We would recommend using Josie with Rover when needing a sitter as we were able to go out without worrying about him. Val

Reggie had another great walk with Josie. Very professional, competent and clearly used to dogs. Reggie decided he didn't want to go on one of the suggested routes because sheep in the field but Josie quickly did a reroute and Reggie got his hour long walk and back at home having a play in the garden with Josie before she left. This was also a last minute booking and so Thank You Josie for your flexibility.

Reggie already absolutely loves Josie after one short meet & greet and then an hour’s walk in the countryside around his home yesterday. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Clearly very competent around animals and giving Reggie clear commands and lots of praise and affection. She listened to instructions and took them on board. I have no doubts about recommending Josie. It was clear when they got back that Reggie didn’t want her to go, so he just sat on top of her! Thank you Josie.
