NYU student who loves animals!
Pet care experience
I've pet sat for about 15 years now, from our neighbor's cats to family dogs (and even fish lol). Additionally, I have had pets in my life (specifically dogs), since before I knew how to walk. In fact, ever since I was little, I have absolutely adored animals-- I would always wear my snow white costume around the house in hopes I’d gain the ability to talk to our animals haha. So I can’t imagine a better job for a college student who misses her family pets! I am a fast learner and am very responsible and accommodating. I am free to pet sit, walk, and even do some chores around the house if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your animals. I promise they will be in good hands!
Reviews
Pepper loved walking and playing with Josie in her apartment again! Josie is always on time
Josie took Pepper on an hour long walk and was great! She arrived on time and Pepper was excited to see her. She took pictures and tracked the walk which I appreciated. Would definitely recommend Josie for puppy walks!
My dog is obsessed with Josie. He cries and whimpers when he sees her because he’s so excited. Josie is so nice and communicative, we all love her! 10/10 recommend.
Josie was awesome! She helped us with walking our senior dog short-notice. She was super friendly, took careful note of his instructions and needs, and took him on an awesome walk (it was the longest distance anyone’s taken him in 30 minutes!). She also sent a really cute picture of him at the end. We would absolutely book Josie again!

I lived in a single parent household throughout Covid. Our dog, Sadie, was often the only friend in the house with me. So, I completely understand the feeling of wanting the best care for your furry friend. I am 100% committed to giving your companion that extra bit of love for you through my services!
Information Josie W. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there’s anything specific I should know about your dog (ie. medical info, things that make them anxious, etc) — I have experience caring for senior dogs and giving oral medication. Additionally, I’ve cared for large dogs to very small ones— any info about how to best care for your dog is great!
A typical day
I love to start out with a walk around the neighborhood and end with a trip to a local park! I’ve been known to get a gift or two for the dogs I walk — especially if we walk past a pet shop— I can’t resist lol!!
