Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover in Chestnut Hill
I have been dog sitting since 2022, first on the west coast and now back in Philly! I adore pups, I have had a dog in my family for years and have had my own pup as well. I travel too much currently to have my own dog again but I absolutely love taking care of other doggies when I’m in town!

Ratings and reviews
she was available on such short notice for our out-of-town wedding. She made me feel completely comfortable leaving our Reggie in her care, and he had such a great stay. I truly appreciate the love and care she gave him. We will definitely be reaching out to Joan again!

Joan was absolutely amazing! She sent daily photos and videos of my pup and provided regular updates. Each day, she took my dog to a different park in the neighborhood, and my pup had an absolute blast while in Joan's care. When my flight home was delayed and I had to change the pick-up date to the following day, Joan was incredibly accommodating. I can't wait to rebook her for my next trip!

Joan was awesome. She was attentive and gentle with my older dog. Will absolutely be using her again . Highly recommend.

She was great !

Kinnick had a great time with Joan! Appreciated all the pics

Joan was wonderful!! I got so many pictures and loved knowing my Penny was safe & happy the whole weekend. Will definitely book again.

Schedule
When I am not traveling (either work or personal), my regular routine involves full work days on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and virtual school Monday and Friday. I live near a dog park in a highly walkable and dog friendly area so there are tons of great places in the area for dogs.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a very dog friendly apartment complex in a spacious 2 bedroom apartment! There is lots of grass to run and sniff around if the dog is okay off leash. I am a very attentive dog mama who took the best care of her fur child and would do the same for yours!
A typical day
I live close to a dog park as well as the Wissahickon, so there are plenty of fun places for pups to run and play! Long walks and fetch are definitely on the agenda as well!

- I love all pups, please just let me know if there is anything important to note about your furry friend! I'm more than comfortable giving medication, and taking to the vet/groomer if needed.
