Safety, trust & environment

For services in your home, I am always courteous of your space and will go the extra mile to make sure your pet has the attention and care he or she needs before leaving! I am always attuned to the comfort of the animal and will ensure the highest quality care at all times.

Information Jo L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or reactivity that I need to know about! I am experienced but will make sure to fully discuss the topic with you and set up a thorough care plan!

A typical day

I love to ensure that the animals in my care are enriched, cared for, and loved deeply! There are a surplus of walking trails around my apartment that I love to walk dogs around! I also spend ample time playing with both dogs and cats as well as ensuring they have all the pets and snuggles they could want. I make sure to listen to the signals your pet is sending so they are well taken care of.

Pet care experience

I have loved and cared for animals since I was born! I have been the go-to girl for walking, feeding, bathing, and loving on my family and friends pets since I can remember. When I got the opportunity to go into full-time pet care a few years ago, I jumped at the chance. Now, after a big move, I’m back on Rover and excited to jump back into my dream job, ensuring high-quality care for your 4-legged friends (or 3 or 5 or whatever- I don’t discriminate 😊). I am fun-loving and always make sure pets are happy and enriched! I have experience working with the special needs of animals such as training, medicines, or reactivity. I would love to have the opportunity to spend some time with your fur babies!

Jo was excellent to work with! She took great care of our pup, was very responsive to all communication, and took fun photos to update us. Would not hesitate to book with her again!
