Pets

I have a passion for animals!

Pet care experience

I have had experience working at a boarding facility working with dogs and understand the "dog pack" mentality. I am patient and know it takes work to train our pets. I love all animals and can assure yours will be well taken care of while your away. I am very trustworthy and reliable. I have reliable transportation and am currently a stay at home mom, so I am not held back from fulfilling a need be it in my home or yours. I make adjustments to the total price of a booking depending on the overall request and what is needed not simply by the price that's listed.

Joanna was good with the dogs and communicated well with us while we were gone. We also have a bunny, and she kindly agreed to care for him as well for a small additional charge, which we appreciated. However, upon arriving home, my 12-year-old daughter found a weed bowl in our backyard with marijuana still inside. When I addressed it, Joanna stated it belonged to her boyfriend, which was concerning and unexpected, as I had not approved any guests to come to our home during our absence. I went back and forth on even leaving a review because I do not want to negatively impact her future bookings. Joanna was very kind, communicative, and completed the job she was hired to do. However, having unapproved guests at someone’s home, especially without prior discussion, is something I feel should be communicated clearly and agreed upon ahead of time. Additionally, guests should exercise better judgment than to use THC products on someone else’s property and leave paraphernalia behind. Finding it accessible to a child made the situation especially concerning and left me feeling uncomfortable and disappointed.

Joanna did such a great job with our pack. She was very patient with them and allowed them the space to get to know her better. We received sufficient updates about how they were doing and photos. I will definitely book with Joanna again.
