Pet care experience
As a long time dog lover and owner myself, I am well tuned to the needs of dogs and feel grateful for the opportunity to work with them regularly as a dog walker. While I only have informal experience as a dog walker caring for my own and my neighbor's dogs, it is something that brings me joy and I'd love to do it more often now that my schedule is more flexible. I'm an active person and a regular runner, so I regularly take walks to get out and go for short walks during the day. I'd love to put that time to good use and help you give your pup the TLC it needs while you're hard at work. Right now I work mostly from home as a freelance editor and do not have my own dog, so I can easily accommodate daily dog walks in the Hells Kitchen/ midtown area during work hours and extra early for those owners who just need more zzz's before work (trust me, I get it!). I can ensure that with me, your dog will be well exercised and cared for while you're away. Special skills / offerings: daily updates from me and your pal about how the day's walk/ visit went, extra tummy rubs, brushing/ light grooming, for a regular client I would be happy to bathe a dog at no extra cost during occasional house visits if requested
Reviews
Joanna is great with our dog Bella! She gives her tons of attention and knows how to calm her down when she gets too riled up, and is always willing to play fetch with her outside (even if Bella hasn't quite gotten the hand of the "bringing it back" part yet). Joanna is patient and loving with our dog and would be a great fit to look after others!

Information Joanna S. would like to know about your pet
I'd love to know if a dog has a tendency to pull on the leash, or any other quirks they may have before walking. The more you tell me about your dog's unique needs, the more I can accommodate them! I love pretty much all dogs, but I have an extra soft spot for corgis!
A typical day
We'll stick to the roads and parks around the Hell's Kitchen area- I especially love the parks along the Hudson River. Depending on where you're located, I'd love to take your dog there so we can get them over to a nice, grassy spot for some fetch and a water break.
