About Jocelyn

Experience: 6 yrs

Hello! My name is Jocelyn, I'm an Albion College graduate, I've been pet sitting since high school, and I adore animals. I once pet sat a dog, eight cats, a horse and 20 chickens for five nights in a row--and it was a blast! Although I have a soft spot for cats (my childhood cat is now 17. 5 years old) I am delighted to care for all animals. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and cats, including helping them get up and down stairs, preparing special meals, and administering medicine. I am a writer, both creatively and professionally, so I am more than happy to stay home with your pets, writing in my spare time, and making sure you have a worry-free vacation!

We've had Jocelyn stay at our home to care for our dogs and chickens multiple times. When we had a dog who had very specific dietary and behavioral needs, Jocelyn was on top of it and took great care of her, administering meds as well. Our dog was happy and well-adjusted when we came home (and she could easily be otherwise!). All of our dogs have loved Jocelyn - they have a calm, gentle presence that puts our pets at ease! Jocelyn took great care of our chickens, too, making sure they had everything they needed and checking on them multiple times a day.
