I have recently moved from Colorado to Venice. I love walking dogs and caring for them. Weekend and overnight care is also available with some notice. As an owner of a German Shepherd I’m fully aware how difficult it can be to kennel your bff (pet). I love caring for pets as if they are my own. Give me a call and allow me the opportunity to take care of your pet dog.

Information Joan A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time what your dogs day typically looks like. Does your dog have any special needs? Do you reward good behavior with treats? Do they enjoy walks are they afraid of loud noise?

Pet care experience

I’ve been a dog owner of Cairns and Westies. We have a two year old German Shepherd. I just love the companionship of dogs. Love helping seniors with walking dogs or housesitting their pets for their trips away from home.

Joan has provided excellent care when she watched my 2 dogs. I know I don't have to worry because she treats my dogs with lots of love and cares for them like her own. Joan is reliable and definitely would recommend her.

I’ve had great experiences with Joan, and would absolutely recommend her. She did overnight stays with my dog for many years and was always attentive and made sure my dog got plenty of exercise with regular walks and lots of time outside. She genuinely cared about keeping him happy and comfortable while I was away. Communication was also excellent— She was very responsive and kept me updated, which gave me real peace of mind. I never had to wonder how things were going because she consistently checked in and was quick to reply whenever I reached out.

We had such a great experience! She was so sweet, reliable, and took amazing care of our pup. She kept us updated and made us feel completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. He was happy and well cared for when we got home. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Joan!

Joan cared for my dogs more than once. She has always been reliable in every way. She cared for them like her own. The way that they greeted her with excitement showed that they appreciated her care and attention, and felt loved by her. I found she followed my care instructions completely. You won’t be disappointed to use Joan to care for your pet!
