Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring Animal Lover & Foster
I've had pets since I was a pre-teen, and recently I've been a rescue foster for dogs & cats for the past 2 years, so I have cared for many animals, many with behavioral issues. I have two rescue pitbulls and two rescue cats of my own.

Ratings and reviews
Joan was great, she took very good care of both the dogs and the house. Sent lots is pics and very quick to respond! Your pets will be in great care under her hands.


Joan is an amazing and thoughtful pet sitter and I highly recommend! My cats never seem like they’ve been lonely after she Pet sits for us. I have one cat that’s particularly difficult - not a people person and has a few medical issues- Joan befriend him quickly and is great at following his medical regimen. And the communication is great - I always get updates and pictures from every visit so I know my babies are well taken care of!
Joan took amazing care of my dog Bosley and cat Winslow while my partner and I were gone for the holidays. Winslow as a couple of quirks and comes with very specific instructions and Joan was super accommodating and asked great questions while I talked her through everything. The pictures she sent while we were gone really helped us know that our pets were well cared for, and our big/energetic dog Bosley LOVES her now and was sad to see her go.
Joan is an excellent caregiver! She was very flexible and accommodating around my extensive demands. My dog, Olive loved spending time w/ her, and now expects ME to dote on her too… I would recommend Joan wholeheartedly!

As a professional pet sitter myself, Joan has been my go to cat sitter for years and is the person I refer my clients to if I’m not available! My three can be a little high maintenance at times and Joan has always been so attentive, loving, and patient with them! Also having known Joan for years, I’ve watched her rescue, foster, and care for many large dogs as well. If I had dogs she would be the first person I’d ask to watch them!
