I'll treat your pet(s) like mine!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs and cats my entire life. Until recently I had two pups - without a doubt, my children. My elderly Rottweiler passed peacefully in December, so I now have time for YOURS! I had both as puppies and I even obtained paperwork to fly them home from Costa Rica after living there for 3 years....I wasn't going to just leave them there! Imagine seeing a 100+ lb Rottie walk onto your plane 🥰…..That is how dedicated I am to pets. I am very responsive and probably over communicate with my clients while they are away with pictures and activity recaps ❤️🐾. Whatever is preferred! I previously used Rover.com for my own dogs and was thrilled the relationship I developed with my dog sitter. I hope to do just that for you! When my services are booked MY pets love to go to their grandparents, so my full dedication is to yours!

Jo was amazing!!! She sent lots of updates while we were away and was great with the cats! I would definitely reccommend her.

Joanna is AMAZING! I have a dog that always takes a bit of time to get to warm up to someone....not the case with Joanna. My dog fell in love with her the minute she walked in the door. In addition to how wonderful that was to see, Joanna is so professional - she keeps you informed of how well your pet is doing with lots of text and picture updates. Your only regret will be that you're not home joining in on the fun!

If we could leave a 10 star review we would !!!! WOW!!! Joanna is outstanding! From the time you meet her , too the sad time she has too leave your furbabies. We have 5 dogs , 3 cats and a Russian tort. ( Did I mention she is fantastic and we love her ) !! You will get updated everyday pics n videos of all your babies. With witty captions. All of our kiddos loooooove Jo! They didn't miss us a bit. She treats them like her own . I think our kids wanted us to stay away longer so, Jo could hang with them.. hehe.. positive attitude. Knows too check on a medical condition. Ready too take them too the vets if needed.. I adore her communication. Administration of medications , all the above. All these years, and we have not had any good sitters. Then , one more try and we find this beautiful angel that came into all our lives.. We want her too grow big and fly. Although we just want her too ourselves. . Hehe. The house was clean. Fabulous, wonderful, spirit that knows your kids.. 10 stars Jo .. all the kids say hi N miss you .. kitty's too. Missing you. The best friend for your furbabies right here ! Amazing! Thank you so much Jo.

Of course, each animal is different so I follow the clients preference. It’s important to try and maintain consistency with pets so I adapt to the requests of my clients. Crate trained? A usual at the dog park? I can accommodate your family’s needs 👍

Information Joanna G. would like to know about your pet

Tell me your typical day with your pet! It’s just that easy…. Also current vet contact info and physical paperwork of vaccines. Never have I had an issue, but I worked at a vet office and know firsthand this information is so valuable in an emergency.

A typical day

I lean towards consistency always. The owners routine becomes mine with their pet. Of course I love a good dog park session if the owner approves!
