Attentive, Energetic, Safe Care!
Pet care experience
I grew up on a farm with a pack of dogs. Throughout my years I have single-handedly raised 7 pups ---> dogs. They are all well-trained, well-mannered, balanced family pets that I have given to friends and family members or kept as my own! I am very well-versed in house sitting for many families and their variety of pets and plants and chores :). Back to my doggy care- I believe in an exercised dog. An exercised dog can better become balanced, and a balanced dog desires to listen and learn better! I can exercise your dog thoroughly and teach it manners and boundaries (if necessary). If unnecessary, then I will keep your dog stimulated with exercise and skills it already knows--and build upon those further!! I am very caring, attentive, loving and safety is my utmost priority. I love taking dogs on daily outings for hikes, trail runs, swims and park play! I also raised cats, snakes, birds, fish, horses, goats, llamas…basically I love any creature. My stop-by visits for 30 min- 1 hour dog walking will consist of catered exercise for your specific dog. If your dog is a runner, we will do high-octane longboard ride to get a lot of energy out in a short amount of time!!

Jo is amazing and Clyde loved his stay with her. She gave him plenty of exercise and love. I would love to use her again!
Jo was absolutely perfect! She took such great care of our dog! Our pup didn't want to leave.
Jo is the best! Redd (our pup) has so much fun with Jo and her dog on their adventures. We’re so thankful Jo is on Rover.com - she is our go-to pet sitter!
Jo is great. i could go on and on, but really, great is all you need to know. ok, maybe a little more. she is flexible with your schedule, which is amazing considering how busy she is. jo includes your dog in her day, and is super active. all the photos she sends are in the park, or hiking, or jogging, so no worries about your dog getting exercise. her dog is super friendly, so much so that i call him my dogs utah boyfriend. they get along great and Caymus about jumps out my truck window when we arrive at jo's house. i sing the "we're going to jo's house" song to caymus and it drives her crazy happy. so, yeah, highly recommended. just not on the days i need her :)

Information Jo S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know how the dog socializes with other animals. Any safety concerns-- any fears the dog may have. Does your dog have ANXIETY? How much does your dog shed? What are the dog's favorite things/toys/activities? What are some games or tricks the dog likes to engage in? What are your hopes and expectations for your dog's time with me? I love all breeds of dogs and I am very experienced with soooo many breeds and mixes!! Border collies, australian and german shepherds, pit bulls, pugs, great danes, mastiffs, golden retrievers, labs, golden doodles, beagles, hounds, poodles, maltese, labradoodles, maltipoo, terriers, vizsla, rhodesians, chihuahuas, australian cattle dogs, blue heelers, dalmations, DOMESTIC MIXED BREEDS aka Muts :))))
A typical day
I am open to recommendations for walk locations and parks! Fetch, dog parks, trail runs, hikes, and swims are my typical daily excursions…. Although I am open to suggestions and personal preferences!
