Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Joanna and I’ve been a lifelong dog lover as well as an experienced dog mom of 32 years. I have experience caring for dogs at all stages of life from puppies to seniors and coming from both breeders and rescues. I am familiar with different breeds of dogs and their unique temperaments so can easily read and adjust my care based on their specific needs. I don't have my own dog and only take one client at a time so your fur baby will get my full attention and care. My friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, play, and clean up after their dogs and also for overnight stays. I live near community parks and walking trails so your fur baby will get plenty of fresh air, exercise and socialization. They are free to roam unrestricted in my home as well as have easy access to outdoor space. Your pet will be supervised at all times, cared for according to your instructions and loved as if they were my own.
Reviews
Joanna is amazing! She watched my dog for 4 nights on short notice. Took great care of him and sent plenty of updates. Highly recommend Joanna to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
She is awesome! My dog was happier with her than with me… LOL…
Joanna and her daughter were great. Kona seemed to enjoy herself and had lots of activity and things to see. I received plenty of pictures to see how my Kona was doing. I am booking Kona's next vacation already.
Joanna cared for my dog Bailey as her own! I got regular updates and had no concern leaving her in Joanna’s care. I will absolutely use Joanna again!!!

Safety, trust & environment
I live in Irvine in Eastwood Village. My home is a second story flat with a large balcony and an unfenced grass area in front. The neighborhood I'm in is very dog friendly with plenty of open grass areas and dog waste stations. My home is set up to be very dog friendly so rest assured that your fur baby will be loved and cared for the same way you would in my home.

Information Joanna L. would like to know about your pet
Please provide details of any special needs or behaviors that I need to be aware of such as: 1) Feeding/walking schedule you'd like me to follow? 2) Any medication you would like me to administer? 3) Does your pet have any allergies? Can your pet have any treats? 4) Does your pet have any particular likes/dislikes? Is your dog good with other dogs? 5) Is there anything else I should know about your pet?
A typical day
Ideally I like to recreate a similar routine to mimic the environment and activity at your home. I find the consistency that mirroring feeding times, exercise routines, play activities, and bedtime habits that your dog is accustomed to helps provide comfort for your furry friend in a new environment. With that said, my day with your fur baby may typically involve activities like walking, playing fetch, offering puzzle toys, practicing/teaching training commands, napping together, people watching while sun bathing on the balcony and eating the meals/treats that you provide only (I do not give your pet anything outside of what you provide unless requested).
