I will provide fun, loving care!

Pet care experience

I have been dog sitting most of my life. I grew up with dogs, and cared for friends dogs. Then started doing pet sitting as a side business. Really enjoyed caring for my clients dogs, and continued watching some of the same dogs for years. I have two beautiful teenage daughters, and a husband who also loves dogs. I have an older Labradoodle, and three cats that we have rescued. I have always had a passion for all animals, and will treat them as family.

Joni has been a dear friend for nearly 15 years. Her love of pets and fastidious care of them is evident in how she loves and cares for her own pets as well as the many pets of others she has cared for. There have been many occasions where Joni took care of my dog while I was away. She has such a love for all animals; I've even teased her about it at times... buying them special treats, going out of her way to make them feel loved and comfortable. As one of my dearest friends, I would probably trust her more than anyone I know to care for my child (and she has done so many times) as well as my dog. You never have to worry about the welfare of you pet in Joni's hands. You just might worry that they will like her more than they like you! (just kidding) But truly, she is such an amazing, loving caregiver.

Most get along with cats. The cats we have are friendly, but some dogs try to chase them.

A typical day

We live near the woods and have a paved trail I walk my dog on daily. Since Charlie has gotten older, I"m unable to run with him, But, would love to run with a dog again. We have an in ground pool, and in the summer lots of dogs we have watched enjoy swimming!
