Animal Lover with a Fenced backyard

Pet care experience

I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by all types of animals helped shape my deep appreciation and compassion for their care. As an adult, my passion for working with animals has only continued to grow. Over the years, I have gained experience through volunteering, caring for family and friends’ dogs, and owning dogs of my own. I have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with separation anxiety. I am often referred to as a “dog whisperer” because dogs tend to feel comfortable and at ease with me right away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while giving each dog personalized attention and care. Hygiene Policy To provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for all dogs in my care, I ask that all pets arrive clean and well-groomed. Dogs should be free of strong odors and in good hygienic condition before their stay. If your dog needs a bath or grooming, please have this done before drop-off. Thank you for helping me maintain a healthy and pleasant environment for every guest.

Joanna did an excellent job taking care of my dog, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. She was very communicative throughout the entire process, always keeping me updated and making me feel comfortable while I was away. Her availability and flexibility were also greatly appreciated and made scheduling very easy. On top of that, everything was kept clean and organized, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about providing a safe and comfortable environment. Thank you again, Joanna, for taking such great care of my little guy!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
