Pet care experience

Energetic and responsible dog lover

I have been pet sitting for about 15 years, everything from quick play dates to extended stays lasting over a month. I've worked with a variety of dogs including a 13-year old 4 pound chihuahua, a vizla that required 5 or more hours of solid exercise a day, a 160 pound mastiff that thought he was a lap dog, and a very scared dalmatian/husky/german shepherd mix that needed some serious work on social interations. I've dealt with skunk attacks, bee stings, an intestinal blockage and various types of aggression. I AM NOT CURRENTLY ABLE TO STAY OVERNIGHT DURING SITTINGS. I KEPT IT IN MY PROFILE BECAUSE IT IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN BOOKING MULTIPLE DROP-INS At the end of last year I ended up taking in 3 Doberman puppies that I had dog sat for regularly. I was able to find a home of one of them but the other two are still with me. Because of this I am not able to do extended stays that require me to be gone overnight or dogs that cannot be left alone for a few hours due to separation anxiety or medical reasons. But if your dog is friendly please consider boarding!

Joslyn took great care of my dog & cat for several days while I was on vacation. She was responsive, caring & responsible. She even won over my reserved dog who has separation anxiety! I highly recommend her!

Joslyn was very sweet with my sensitive dog and super responsive for a quick turn around stay. Would love for Juni to stay again!

Joslyn did a great job with our enormous Ridgeback! Great communication, we appreciated the photos. And her place is well suited to dogs. We highly recommend Joslyn and would be happy to bring our pup back.

Joslyn was wonderful, responsive, and her house was convenient to ucla to boot. Would definitely book again if I’m in the area.

Safety, trust & environment

The yard where I am is NOT fenced in, but it is very large with several acres of wooded area in the back. For dogs that need to stay on leash there is a long tie out and plenty of walks. I never let the dogs play outside without supervision. There are two other friendly dogs on the property (in addition to my own 2) and two dogs next-door that come over to play all the time. So we have our own mini, well-mannered, well-socialized dog park.

Pets

A typical day

I'm up for anything from a long hike, to a good game of fetch, swimming, or just hanging out. A tired dog is a happy, well behaved dog!
