I don't currently have a pet of my own. I live in a flat in the city centre which doesn't have any outside space, however I live close to a beautiful large park and a ten minute walk from a open green area next to the river, where I could let a pet off lead to run a distance and burn some energy if needed!

A typical day

I love to exercise and am happy to take long walks/runs with your dog as needed! There's a beautiful park near my house, as well as a large green area close by for dogs who like to burn energy running off-lead. I enjoy throwing the ball or stick and am happy to play whatever games your dog enjoys to play with them, I'll let them lead the way!

Caring and Committed Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! **CURRENTLY ONLY CARING FOR CATS DUE TO A BROKEN ANKLE** I'm currently between jobs so I'm free quite a lot of the time and would love company! I've previously had my friend's chihuahua stay with me for a week and have looked after other friends' dogs for a day or so at a time, so I have experience in taking care of them. I also love them so it's never a chore! If you'd like somebody who enjoys exercise and entertaining dogs, as well as giving them plenty of love, hugs and attention then please get in touch!

Joanne has been absolutely fantastic, she has looked after my babies so well. I have 3 dogs which can be a lot for some people but Joanna has been amazing. She sent me lots of pictures and videos which I love as I missed my dogs so much while I was away. She took great care of my house as well and I literally had 0 worries while I was away. Her communication was great and nothing was too much trouble. She really does care about animals so much and treats your pets like her own. She made my holiday completely stress free and I would happily book Joanne again and again to look after my dogs. Absolutely 5 stars 🌟

Jo as ever was absolutely excellent! All the pets adore her and snuggle on the sofa with her, loads of photos sent keeping us up to date on what they were up to.

Took great care of my 2 cats with regular photos & feedback, left my house as I left it. Would recommend to anyone looking for a cat sitter. Thanks Jo x

Absolutely lovely! Our cats adored her, our grumpy cat snuggled on her lap for an evening and Jo was gifted a mouse by another of the cats. All 3 cats were clearly comfortable and happy around Jo and able to be themselves. Reggie was happy and appreciated the snuggles. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.
