Joanna took on my very young puppy on super short notice when my original pet sitter plans fell through. She is fabulous!! Wonderful updates and pictures!! She clearly is very dog savvy. 10/10 recommend 💙

Joanna was amazing with Roo and kept me updated with lots of pictures. I could tell Roo had a great time and was well cared for!

Captain had a blast with Joanna and her family recently! He's a high energy working breed(Australian Cattle Dog) and I am always nervous he's going to drive people crazy whenever I board him as he can be a pain. Joanna was great though and accomodated all his needs and even had experience with the breed. It was obvious upon our first meeting that she has a great energy and rapport with dogs. Would definitely recommend!

Joanna was amazing. Great sitter and highly recommend her. She had great communication and shared a bunch of pictures and videos during Lila’s stay. It seems like she had a great time there and I’ll definitely leave her there again when needed.

Joanna’s amazing. 🤩 She helped getting my pup socialized with other dogs. Nubia seemed super comfortable with her and I have 0 complaints. Will be booking again!

Schedule

I am a single mother who works from home. I drop off and pick up my kids from school, and run the occasional errand, but usually I am home. I enjoy an evening walk with my chocolate lab and would love your pet to join us.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced, large backyard. I also have two extra crates if your dog is crate-trained and feels more comfortable sleeping in a crate. Pets being on furniture is discouraged, but rarely enforced. I have an SUV and am willing to transport pets if needed.

Pets

A typical day

I typically throw the ball or frisbee for the dogs each morning and then do walk each evening. Please let me know if you would like me to walk your dog, and if they walk well on a leash or require a solo walk (without other dogs).

I do have pets at home. If your pet is prone to aggression with other dogs or with chickens, please let me know beforehand so I can take the necessary precautions. I do have kids in the home, for their safety, I can not take dogs who have a history of biting humans.
