House Sitting • May 27, 2026

Joanna stepped in to take over for another Dogsitter saving my vacation. The transition was seamless. Although I didn’t get the chance to meet Joanna before the sitting, I spoke to her in the phone for at least half an hour and felt very comfortable with her. She took excellent care of my Ozzie, and he even tried to run after her taxi as she rode away. To top it off Joanna washed her sheets and towels before departing. She is a gem whom I would definitely rebook!

House Sitting • May 15, 2026

Joanna was an absolute delight! Although I couldn’t meet her before my departure, she seamlessly settled in after a warm handoff off from another sitter. She kept me updated with regular messages and an abundance of pictures of my two dogs having a fantastic time with her. Upon my return, I had the pleasure of meeting the wonderful woman behind the app, and she was just as warm and welcoming as I had imagined. I felt completely at ease and confident with my home and pets in her care, and my home was in the exact condition I had left it. I had a worry-free trip and will definitely be booking her services again.

Joanna cared for my American Bully/Pitbull Hamilton for one month while I was traveling. He was very happy under her love and care, and she took him for a veterinarian appointment when needed. Joanna took good care of my home. I would not hesitate to recommend her for future pet sits.

Joanna is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! I came home from my vacation to a very happy ready to play Sadie! I was actually worried about how Sadie might react to being left with a stranger, but with Joanna she was absolutely perfect! It was very clear that Sadie felt safe and loved. The house was immaculate, literally spotless! Even better than I left it. Joanna went above and beyond! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter..Joanna is always welcome back in my home, and I will definitely book her again for Sadie. Thank you Joanna!

I got to meet Joanna when she was living in Co. Galway through a friend. I needed someone to stay in my home for a month whilst travelling overseas. I had 2 dogs at the time, my elderly cat and my beloved pony, who was in a neighbouring field and needed taking care off. Joanna was a life saver to me & regularly kept in touch to let me know how everything was going. She even organised a vet when my cat needed medical attention. I highly recommend joanna as a house/pet sitter. She bonded so well with my pets and has such a kind & caring nature about her. She is welcome back to my home anytime.
