Miss My Pets:(
Pet care experience
I have had dogs/pets my entire life. The last pets that my family and I had were a dog and two cats. They all passed within a few years of each other. My dog was "perfect", as I am sure everyone considers their pets to be, so I didn't think I was ready to take on another one right now. But I so miss having them around. I will stop and pet any dog that wants me to as I walk around my neighborhood.
Reviews
Joan is so dependable and kind, and my dogs love her. Thank you Joan!
Very thorough communication and my pup is always happy after the walks!
Joan is so great! She walked my dogs and she was so careful and made sure they were okay! Will book in future when needed. Thanks!
Joan was super helpful cleaning up after our pup after he chewed up his harness. Something she didn’t have to do but she really went the extra mile! We can tell she truly enjoys walking our dog.

I will treat your dog/cat as if it were my own. I am used to throwing a ball hundreds of times and playing with any kind of toy your pet desires. I love to brush dogs and cats if this is something they enjoy. I walk daily for my own exercise, so your dog would just enhance my walk. My dog did not care for other dogs so I would never walk past another animal on the sidewalk with your pet.
Information Joan G. would like to know about your pet
Of course, I would appreciate knowing your dog's temperament, if they are prone to taking off, if they receive treats after going out and if they are allowed on your furniture.
A typical day
I am currently not taking dogs for boarding but when I am visiting your dog I will play with your dog with toys provided or throwing a ball in the yard or chasing after them...whatever they prefer. If they are just snugglers, I will sit and pet them after taking them out to do their business.

I just retired so my schedule is very open. I do have a life and do go on vacation occasionally but my schedule can be extremely flexible.
