Experience with 50+ Pups & Counting

Pet care experience

Experience with foster puppies of 5 weeks old and senior dogs 14+. I spent my first year in NYC walking dogs full time in Manhattan. It was an immersive experience for a new New Yorker lol. But spending days exploring with dozens of the city’s cutest dogs will forever be one of the most cherished times of my life. Now, joining Rover, I’m excited to continue making room for pups in my day to day! More on my experience: I’ve worked with dogs young and old, big and small. I have experience in medicine administration, post-surgery care, potty training, leash reactivity, and resource guarding. I know that every dog is different, and being able to cater to that is what sets caregivers apart. From shy and anxious dogs to bouncing-off-the-walls dogs, it’s my absolute pleasure to get to know them as individuals. I love, love, love having regular clients, and my wide open schedule makes that type of relationship possible.

Thank you Josie for taking such good care of Phil! Highly recommend Josie for your pet. Kind, compassionate, and very thoughtful. Phil spent a few days at Josie’s home. I know he was safe and well cared for. The photos of Phil were so adorable. Can’t wait to use Josie again.

Girlie had a great four day stay with Josie, she sent me pictures and updates and a report each morning of how she did during the night! It was my pup’s first time being away from me overnight and Josie gave me the wonderful gift of peace of mind. Thank you!!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets will be treated as if they are my own. They will have free range of my apartment (5 rooms in size) and access to all furniture except the bed (unless otherwise requested, of course!). I have been fostering for as long as I’ve been in my apartment, so the home is totally puppy proofed - literally! One of my foster assignments was two 5 week old pit bull puppies.
