Pet care experience

Professional who is looking to watch/care for dogs after losing my 14 year old. Know how hard it is to find reliable care for elderly dogs. Your dog will be treated like family. Only watch the dogs of one family at a time. My boyfriend has a golden. Let me know if they can be introduced to each other during your pet's stay. I currently work from home most days of the month. I am used to having a dog and believe in keeping to the dog's normal routine as best as possible. I have a large yard for your dog to run and play. We can go on evening walks around the lake. I prefer to know what the dog's typical day is like with the owner and emulate it.

Joann was amazing with our girl Callie! She gave frequent updates and her dog Murphy was a perfect furry friend. She was so sweet with our girl, and I felt that I could fully trust our fur baby in her care. I would highly recommend Joann and would definitely rebook! 🐶❤️

I was so nervous to leave my dog. I had never left her with anyone and she is dog-aggressive. Joann did amazing with her and sent so many updates that I felt assured that my dog was in a good place. I was able to enjoy my trip out of town stress-free. Thank you Joann!!!
