Competent, Loving Care for Your Pet
Pet care experience
Retired now from managing my husbands medical office and making sure patients were taken care of, so I now can devote full time to the needs of our furry guests. We have had pets all our lives, dogs, cats, (many rescues) hamsters, frogs, fish and a snake. Se I have cared for animals at all stages of life. Every morning my husband and I are out walking (hour or less depending on our pets wishes) on our favorite quiet and shaded street. We can do shorter evening walks as well. In between walks, the small, secure and private yard is available for our furry guests. Besides caring for our own pets, I have often been asked to pet sit for family and friends.
Reviews
Our puppy is only a few weeks old, he's a new and cherished member of the family. Thus we were nervous and apprehensive about using Rover to leave him with someone else. As it turns out our concerns were totally unfounded. We couldn't have found a more capable, competent person to look after Bailey. We will without hesitation book Joan again in the future. We are most appreciative of the care she provided for our pet.
Joan and her husband are everything you want in a dog sitter - true dog lovers, great communicators, with a lovely home in a quiet, dog-safe neighborhood. They sent lots of pictures with updates throughout the stay and our guy was relaxed and happy when we picked him up. Highly recommend!
Joan and her husband were amazing with our dog and cat. They were so accommodating, amazing with communication and very welcoming. We felt our pets were well cared for and safe with them. I recommend Joan with 100% confidence! Thanks Joan!

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is our main priority. We don't have any pets of our own right now but when we did, they were never out in the yard unattended. Pets have a way of getting into trouble very easily so I was always watching mine and I would be watching yours at all times as well. The yard is very secure so there is no issue there.

Information Joan B. would like to know about your pet
It is essential to know exactly how the animal is to be feed. Having this written out would be helpful - Amounts, Time of Day, Any Eating Issues Is the dog fearful of certain things Does the dog get along with other dogs Can the dog cohabitate with cats Is the dog ever aggressive towards people Is the dog in good health Has the dog experienced boarding before and how did he/she adjust to it Has the dog experienced being separated from the owner before and how does he/she handle it Any potty habits that would be important to know I would welcome knowing any information that would help make the stay more comfortable for your pet.
A typical day
If a little car ride is permitted for your pet, we know of several ideal dog walking areas that have plenty of shade and grass and are low in pedestrian and animal traffic which makes for a more enjoyable walk. Our own gated neighborhood has enough grass and shade for nice walks too. We have plenty of toys to keep our furry guests entertained and we will love interacting with them. They are each so individual in personality and that is so much fun and interesting to see.
