Information Joann T. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has leash reactivity, separation anxiety, food aggression, or medical issues. I have quite a few plants in my home so dogs who like to eat plants will not be a good fit.

A typical day

I will accommodate your dog’s walking and feeding schedule. I work from home so I will be able to keep an eye on them and take them out for breaks during the day. Your dog will have free rein in my house and fully fenced yard - they can sunbathe on my deck! I’ll take them on leashed walks in my neighborhood per your guidance.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs (owned/fostered) since 2016. I have experience with large breed (~75lb) senior dogs and dogs with leash reactivity. I treat all dogs as if they were my own.

Joann is the best! Josie loves her and her home, she hardly wants to leave when I come to pick her up.

Joann was an excellent dog sitter. Gave us clear updates and our girl Pepper really took to her.

Joann was wonderful with Gus. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared a lot about making sure he was happy and comfortable. She kept us updated, took him on walks, gave him plenty of love and attention, and sent us pics. It was very clear from the updates that Gus was having a great time. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Joann was very accommodating and provided daily/multiple updates and pictures of Zeus’ care during our time away. We were always excited to get his pictures and so glad to hear how his day was going. Additionally, Joann is very communicative and brought up any concerns or questions immediately. Zeus was given his medication, walks, and play times throughout his stay and Joann knew exactly how to work with a reactive dog. We would love to have Joann continue caring for Zeus when we’re gone again and would highly recommend her! Zeus missed us but we could tell he was well loved and cared for with Joann—we think he even misses her!
