Pet care experience

Home away from home

I have owned a dog most of my life. My last dog passed away in 2013 after 14 years of loving care. I also volunteer at the Michigan Humane Society. I offer walks, play time and love for your dog . I care for your dog as if he or she is my own. Please bring a dog bed or crate to sleep, they are also welcome on my bed. Food and water dishes and a toy so your dog has something from home. I will send you photos and videos each day to show you all the fun things we are doing. I require proof of rabies shot and flea prevention for the safety of my household.

JoAnn was great! She provided updates all day long and a ton of pictures that helped when we were missing our boy.

JoAnn is an amazing sitter. She kept the photos coming which reassured me my fur baby was in good hands. She's very easy to reach, attentive, kept me informed, and flexible. I'm happy I found her. Thanks again!

This was my first time using Rover for my 5.5 y.o golden retriever London. I received updates morning afternoon and night. JoAnn and her husband did a fantastic job watching London and made sure she felt comfortable in their space. They made me feel comfortable prior to dropping her off with them.
