Excited, High Energy, Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

My need for animals in my life and interaction with them sets me apart from others! I am doing this mostly because of what animals bring to me in life and second is for a little extra money!!! Your pet will be spoiled and tended to with full attention and love! Animals and I "get each other" and connect on a different level and I think it's because animals just "know" and have that 6th sense!!! When I interact with animals, I let them know how I appreciate them with our interactions and my fulfillment comes from seeing how they are thankful and seeing how they feel fulfilled by their interaction with me. In my free time I love reading and watching videos about dog behavior and their psychology. All dogs behavior intrigues me but I DEFINITLY enjoy a challenge where I really need to work for the dogs respect because it's almost "extra rewarding once I gain it" and allows me to know I have been able to apply skills I have learned. Dogs and all animals are what fascinate me and I've never met one that I don't connect with! I realize that every dog and animal are completely different so I know ever interaction has to be customizable and specific to that dog and interaction!

Joanna G has an incredible love for animals. She has puppy say for my fur baby on a few occasions and knew my pet was in excellent hands when I was away. Joanna has a lab rescue dog and has been an excellent fur mom, caring for him.

Joanna is a dog lover. She knows how to interact with them. I watch her when she plays and trains them and they respond very well. She has always had dogs growing up and the dog she has now is her best friend. Joanna is a nurse which gives her the knowledge to know if a dog is not well or in any danger. She is also a very compassionate and caring person. Anyone would be fortunate to have her in their dog's life.

Joanna is the biggest animal lover I have ever known. She has often taken charge of her families pets and even brought home pets for her family in her younger days. Joanna always runs out of her house to greet dogs when they go past her home while being walked by their owners. At this time, Joanna is mother to Marley, an 8 yr old mostly chocolate lab. Joanna and Marley are inseparable. Marley is so attached to Joanna, he gets very depressed whenever she's not at home Although she loves dogs, dogs love Joanna! She is very responsible and trustworthy. I no longer have any pets, but if I did, Joanna would be the one person I would entrust them with
