Safety, trust & environment

I'm vigilant of potential dangers with care for a pet outside of their home. I take notice of areas/ other pets to avoid and will physically step in to protect your pets boundaries.

Information Josie S. would like to know about your pet

If your dog is on any medication, have mobility issues, or reactivity. I can administer oral medication and clean out ears. If there's any mobility issues, let me know, I can carry dogs up to 70 lbs. I can also be mindful of what situations to avoid to not trigger reactivity.

A typical day

I like to match the activity to the dog. I have long lines to allow for more freedom if we do tracking/retrieve play and like to frequent sog friendly places for the dogs to become comfort and confident in new environments. If they like the simple life, the their favorite walking routes are always doable.

Pet care experience

Experience walking and caring for dogs and cats. I have fostered several animals throughout college and have trained dogs of all ages. My own pet is AKC Caine Good Citizen Certified and I have a research background in dog Vet Care and can make adjustments to care based on breed and any current health issues.

Josie is great. She is very communicative and responsive. I had sent out the Rover request and within 30 seconds we were already making arrangements. I highly recommend.

She’s awesome! Cared for three of my animals including walking my dog and feeding my cats. Watches to make sure each animal gets their proper care as per instructions.

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.
