Availability

I work with animals currently and will work around my schedule to care for yours as I do my own! I have worked with all types of animals and enjoy doing it! When boarding with me please keep in mind your dog will never meet any of mine unless you’re okay with them meeting. My cats also have their own room called our cativity room so if your cats not friendly they are welcome to be by themselves without my pets bothering them! Boarding- Anyday and time, pets are kept seperate unless okayed by owner. Preferred! Daycare- Saturday and Sunday Housesitting- schedule varies, not as open to housesitting

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer providing care in my own home i have a whole set up with lots of activities, toys, chews etc! When boarding a dog or cat they will be kept seperate from my own animals, they will only be with another animal if they are part of their family unless okayed and specified. I do that to keep people and their pets comfortable. My pets have their own room and areas when I have boarders. I have separate rooms and areas set up for boarding babies that I’m housing in my own home for safety and to keep owners at ease having me board your babies! 🙂 that includes daycare the babies will have their own area and I do have a fenced in large yard! Please let me know if your pup or dog has history of climbing or jumping fences, anxiety, stress triggers etc! I also have a kiddie pool, a hose, sprinkler for summer time, puzzle toys and enrichment activities for hyper active babies!

A typical day

A typical day would be feeding, walking, and some more play time with some cuddle time in between! And of course a little bit of mental stimulation whether that is toys, treat puzzles or snuffle mats! The more loving on the babies the better!

Pet care experience

I have always had a deep love for animals, which has only grown over the years as I've gained experience caring for them. From a young age, I've been surrounded by various pets, learning how to understand their needs and behaviors. I've volunteered at local animal shelters, and currently work at a boarding/daycare/ grooming facility and have for years where I've had the chance to work with different types and energies of dogs and cats. This hands-on experience has not only enriched my knowledge but also strengthened my bond with animals. I truly believe that they bring joy and companionship into our lives so why not bring it into theirs as I’m caring for them? My passion for them drives me to advocate for their well-being and happiness. I have experience with calm dogs, hyper, and aggressive ones I also do grooming and can help with that 🙂

Josillyn, She was awesome—very attentive and accommodating. I wasn’t able to drop off my dog, and she kindly arranged to pick him up and drop him off, which I really appreciated. She also sent updates while I was out of town that gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. Highly recommend!

Our dogs seemed to really enjoy their time at Josilyn’s! Unfortunately she wasn’t there for drop off or pick up so we never got to meet her in person, but her roommate was very nice.

This was my first time using Rover, and Josilyn made it the absolute best experience! We did a meet & greet prior to booking, she answered all my questions, and I booked it! She sent me updates and photos of my babies, and she loved on them and treated them as if they were her own! I will definitely book with her again! Thank you so much Josilyn and Rover!
