Pet care experience

I LOVEEE spoiling animals☺️

Hi, My name is Joana, I'm 21 and originally from the Philippines. My family moved to the US in 2015. We've always loved dogs and often took in strays. At one point, we had 15 dogs and over 25 puppies! Now, we have a 12-year-old American Akita who's the heart of our family. I also LOVE reptiles. I had a ball phyton and I now have a bearded dragon named Mushu.

Safety, trust & environment

I am unable to do pet sittings at my house due to conflicts. However, your dogs safety is my top priority so I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep your fur baby safe.

House Sitting • Sep 24, 2026

Joana was absolutely incredible! We couldn’t have asked for a better person to stay at our house and take care of our dog, Ollie. Ollie is blind, extremely active, and very particular about the people he feels comfortable with, so leaving him with someone is something I’m always nervous about. But from the moment Joana met him, he absolutely loved her which immediately put my mind at ease. Joana was in constant communication with us while we were away, sent updates, and went above and beyond to make sure Ollie was happy, safe, and well cared for. She was so attentive to his needs and treated him like he was her own. Coming home to a happy Ollie and knowing he had been so loved and cared for meant everything to us. Joana was trustworthy, caring, responsible, and truly went above and beyond. I honestly cannot recommend her enough and would trust her with Ollie and our home again without hesitation. We will absolutely be booking with her again!

Joana was such an amazing sitter for our cat. Excellent communication and we really appreciated all the photos. She also went above and beyond to change the batteries on a smoke alarm for us that was beeping and bothering our cat. We will csetainly be contacting her again in the future!

No complaints. Joana walked my dogs while i went on a last minute trip for a few days. She was attentive to both their needs and kept up with regular updates. Will definitely rebook in the future

Joana was fantastic for our house/cat sitting. She sent lots of photos each day and our cats seemed to really like her. Will certainly use her services again in the future.

Joana was amazing! All of the drop-in visits were great, and she sent photos and videos every day. She was also very attentive to instructions and played with my cat every day. She is awesome, and I will definitely be booking again.

Joana was a fantastic house and dog sitter. She stayed at our home for five days watching our two dogs and did an excellent job. Communication was great throughout our trip, and she regularly sent updates and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. When we returned, our dogs were clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for, and our home was left clean and tidy. We really appreciated the care and attention she gave both our dogs and our place. We would gladly have Joana sit for us again and highly recommend her.

Before watching your pets, it's essential for me to learn all about them: their likes, dislikes, any special needs, and their daily routines. This way, I can ensure I provide the best care possible and make their time with me enjoyable and stress-free!
