Joan took amazing care of our dog! She sent updates and pictures regularly. Especially with the July 4th holiday (fireworks) she let us know how he was feeling, which gave us peace of mind :)

I 100% wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Joan. She allowed us to bring Lexi over a few days before to meet up. She was very kind and caring and kept us updated with pictures and texts. Lexi seemed to take to her right away. Thank you Ms. Joan for taking such good care of our girl. 🤗

Safety, trust & environment

Great neighborhood to walk your dog and comfortable home where your dog will be very happy. I am willing to crate your fur baby if a crate is provided.

A typical day

I will walk your dog often during the day and play with them. I have a nice long hallway perfect for ball chasing. They will come home happy from all the exercise ready for nap! 😊

I will follow your instructions on any special care your dog may require. I feel it is important to keep close to the same schedule as they are familiar with at home.
