Information Joanna V. would like to know about your pet

No preference for any breed. How could I rule certain breeds out. My heart is paw shaped and I adore all breeds of animals and cats.

A typical day

I don't get much done in the day due to the constant attention my animals get. I speak to them like humans. We get plenty of walks and if the days are wet then we venture to the woods. We often have lots of play time indoors with my dogs. One dog is blind and he likes to sniff out the hidden treats- this is his favourite game by far. There is never a dull moment in our house.

Pet care experience

Everyone around me will agree that I am absolutely obsessed with animals. Any animal that has come into my care has had a life of luxury. My partner and I have had endless comments on how well behaved our dogs are. My experience ranges from young dogs through to senior dogs, Including cats and sadly we lost my old cat last year. He was my best friend and the attachment we had was rare. I think about him every day. My senior dog is supported when she has harder days, especially when certain walks can be challenging for her. I will carry her up bigger steps and walk at her pace. Like humans we get bored with the same routine and so we vary the walks we go on. Whether it is a trip to the beach, a walk in the woods or running around an open field, rest assured they will have plenty of fun. I also work part-time in care and my dogs like to come with me, they are such good therapy. I will happily walk a client's dog as I like to help out where I can. My parents live locally and will quiet often have our dogs as company, they recently lost their dog and the loss has left a hole in their hearts. I will always take any instructions seriously and what wish for your pet is my command. I want you and your pet to feel comfortable knowing they will get the best care. ANY animal in my care will be loved and cherished like my own.

Joanna has an incredible gift with animals – it’s as if they’re naturally drawn to her. She instinctively knows how to make them feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s her own pets or animals entrusted to her, Joanna goes above and beyond every single time to ensure they’re safe, happy, and properly looked after. We have a few very pampered and spoiled dogs of our own, and under Joanna’s care, they honestly receive better treatment than I do! From their daily walks to playtime, feeding, and endless cuddles, nothing is ever too much trouble for her. She treats them like family, and it gives us complete peace of mind knowing they’re in the very best hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare, I couldn’t recommend Joanna highly enough. She doesn’t just care for animals – she adores them, and it truly shows.
