Patient and loving dog sitter
Pet care experience
I have cared for dogs from a young age. My first dog was a dachshund, and I was caring for him till the end. When he was old due to health issues, he had strict feeding schedules and medication routines, which I followed rigorously to make sure he is comfortable and happy for as long as possible. When I moved to the UK, I didn’t have my own pet and I really missed that. A few years ago, I was occasionally helping my friend with his rescue dog, as I was one of very few people she would accept. For the past year I am helping another friend looking after her two cockapoos regularly. They brought a lot of joy and reminded me how much you get in return when you give them love and care. I am working from home and enjoy when I have a furry friend around who I can take for a long walk. My kids love caring for dogs too. They are very good and respectful towards them and enjoy teaching them new tricks. I have a spacious flat with a large garden, close to Hove Park and I can look after your dog during the day as well as overnight. Please note that my friend dogs are staying with us on regular basis so it is very likely they will be here when you need dog sitting. Please check with me before booking if this could be an issue.
Reviews
Joanna and her lovely family have been looking after my two dogs for around a year now. My girls love them and I know they are always safe and well looked after with them. I wouldn't hesitate in trusting your doggie to be in Joanna's company.

I live very close to large park and have also own fenced garden. I often look after friend 2 dogs but if other owner allows they are very friendly towards other dogs so it wouldn't be a problem to have them all together. I have 2 kids which are used to dogs and enjoy spending time with them but they are very respectful and if needed give them space.
