Opera singing dog lover

Pet care experience

I've cared for dogs that require a lot of extra attention, whether they need medication or they just are rambunctious. From a newborn to a stubborn Akita, there isn't a breed that I'm afraid of or a breed I haven't worked with. I have helped to train our beagle puppy at home and he has been incredibly receptive to my style of training. A positive, patient outlook is always the answer when it comes to dogs. If you respect them, they'll respect you! That's why I feel I'd be a great sitter because there isn't much that upsets me and I know how to gentle correct behavior that is unsatisfactory. If Fido eats something off the counter for example, I would go up and say that that was not very nice and scold them, and proceed to make a n note for when their owners got home.

Josie has helped me with my two dogs for over ten years. One is a 10 year old mini Shih Tzu and the other is a Beagle 1+ years old. She is a responsible pet sitter. She follows a plan for feeding, walking and playing. She is also always training; Choosing her words and gestures. I appreciate her commitment to the dogs and her professional attitude.

Information Josie R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if a dog needs special medication or has an allergies beforehand. I don't really have any breed preferences.

A typical day

There are a lot of parks around, so I would preferably head to one of those. I also enjoy a good game of tug of war, if they're into that as well.
