Josie

Sometimes we do short pet sits when our schedule allows it and we have a gap between the longer ones.  We sat for David and Diane in Vancouver, WA from October 13 - 15, 2023.  They had a 4-year old labradoodle named Josie that we got to love on for a few days.

Josie was such a sweet girl.  She has some medical issues.  She gets seizures and has some skin hot spots.  Our time was short and although we were instructed on what to do for a seizure, this wasn't her cycle time and we didn't have to implement any of that with her.

Instead, we took her for two walks per day.  The morning walk she got to do her sniffing and exploring and the afternoon walk we did a proper couple of miles.  Their neighborhood was gorgeous and there were an abundance of trails through a park and even up to the university.

Josie had a few supplements to add to her eating routine which was fairly easy to do.  We enjoyed our short stay there.  As we use our SUV at all of our sits, we were also able to give David and Diane a ride to and from the airport, saving them some money on an Uber service.

Review: "Jeanne and Ed were wonderful dog/house sitters, and warm, caring, thoughtful, gracious, and interesting people. They were kind enough to give us a ride to and from the airport, and our pup hardly seemed to notice when we left, she was already so comfortable with them. They gave her 2 walks a day, one at her sniffing pace, and another 2 miler, along with all the snuggles and love she could handle. Don't hesitate to host them if you can get into their schedule!"  (This was a formal Trustedhousesitters sit and the information can be found on the app.  Reference contact provided upon request)
