I am a college student studying from home. I have a big family that loves animals. So your pet will always get plenty of social time. Not just with people but with dogs as well. There are a few local dog parks that most of the dogs I take care of absolutely love!

Information Joana A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is allergic to anything, if they have anxiety around other dogs or people, if they haven’t been potty trained, any triggers they might have or anything else that might be important to share so I can do my best to attend to your dogs needs :)

A typical day

I love to take long walks in the park, play fetch with them in my garden, have nice car rides, and visit new parks that your dog will enjoy!

Pet care experience

My name is Joana. I have always cared for pets belonging to my family, friends, and of course my own. I spend a lot of time in my garden, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time. I have a huge park with a dog run just a block away where I take almost all of the dogs I take care of. Just as a warning Your pup Will get spoiled! I want to reassure that your dog feels super comfortable and cozy in my home so during their stay they are allowed on all furniture and receive lots of cuddles! Before booking I always recommend that clients plan a visit with me or have a meet and greet with me whether it’s over the phone or in person just to make sure I’m the sitter for you. Of course I also make sure to send plenty of pictures, videos, and any updates throughout their stay ❤️

Joana was terrific with my very shy dog. She is a very caring person. She was very easy to arrange with and I will definitely use her again.

Joana was right on time and did a great job walking Athena. Athena was so happy to see Joana. She followed all of instructions and provided regular updates about her arrival status.

Great time for our doggy, we received regular updates and photos. Everything was awesome, Joana was very good at caring for our yellow lab-pit.

Joana babysat our girls overnight during a very difficult time. It was a comfort for us to know that our babies were well cared for. Would highly recommend her services.
