Sweet and Loving Pup Sitter 🐾

Pet care experience

Providing a fun and snuggly home away from home for your pup is my specialty. We will go for lots of walks, get outdoor play time, plus some gentle training with treat rewards and positive reinforcement. Hopie Joy loves to play with all dogs of all sizes and is ready to greet your fur baby with big wags. I love all breeds and sizes and feel like every dog has their own special gift to share with us humans. We live in a beautiful walled town house complex with lots of neighborhoods to walk. I provide the crate for any pup who needs that safe space at night or during the day when the humans are away.

April was wonderful. Very responsive, sent videos and pictures daily, and was flexible up until the last minute changes with boarding Cowboy. Cowboy loved his time with her family and playing with Hopie Joy and think he was even a little sad to leave. I definitely hope to use April again in the future.

I work from home all week and only leave for short periods no more than 3 hours to attend Jujitsu training. If you need someone who can maintain a puppy schedule I can adjust to ensure they have plenty of potty breaks. We also do basic training on our walks together, including leash training, sit, stay, and “look”.
