Expierenced & Reliable animal lover

Pet care experience

I’m Josie, 21 years old with a passion for animals. As I grew up I decided I wanted to pursue animals as a sort of career for myself. I started with petsitting for my neighbours and family friends, from there I expanded my clientele. I work with horses so when i’m not working with dogs, you can always find me at the barn with my own horses or others. Along with working with dogs my entire life, I spent 2021 working at an awesome dog daycare/boarding/training facility which allowed me to further mr experience with all different breeds and behaviours. I am interested in dog training and behaviour as well as horse training, so at this point in my life I am still figuring out what I want to do career wise. But for now, this is my passion :) I currently do not have a dog of my own as Buddy passed a year ago, it has been hard and I am still waiting for another perfect dog to come around.

We have had Josie pet sit for us on many occasions. Our dog Misty loves her and is very excited to see her. Our cat Buffer loves her as well but is a cat so doesn't get as excited to see her as Misty. Josie is super friendly and caring towards our pets - when she comes to see them she gets down to Misty's level for a greeting. She is responsible and always ensures she has all the information she needs to take good care of Misty and Buffer - asking if their food has changed etc. I have trusted Josie to administer ear medication to Misty when she has had an ear infection. While sitting with our fur babies (especially the first time) Josie sent me pics of them relaxing on the couch (it was very reassuring). When Misty used to go to the kennel I would worry about her care and now that she is getting older I am so glad we have a loving and reliable sitter in Josie.

I care for other’s animals as if they are my own, so you never have to worry as they are in the best care possible.

Information Josie W. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences and actually prefer larger dogs but of course all dogs are welcome. I would like to know all your dog’s basic information, any behavioural issues your dog may have, as well as anything else you think is important for me to know.

A typical day

I try to keep your dog’s regular routine as best as possible to reduce stress but we will go on walks around the neighbourhood, take trips to different dog parks (with owner’s permission), play in the backyard and of course there will be lots of cuddle time.
