Pet care experience

Experienced dog sitter (and cuddler!)

I'm a reliable and experienced dog-sitter with experience looking after small and medium dogs with a range of energy levels. I'm confident and caring with pups, helping to reinforce any training, making sure your dog gets everything they need. I have flexibility to work from home and have access to a large shared garden. Tooting Common is just a short walk away. I can happily take your furry friend to hang out and take regular breaks for games, cuddles, treats and walks. My flat is small and cosy, and I regularly look after dogs here. They are allowed on the furniture, as long as that's okay with you. If you'd prefer I reinforce no-furniture training, that is no problem. I will offer regular snuggles and games, walks as frequently as needed, and they can run around in the secure garden for sniffs and exploration.

My dog stayed with Joanne for the day for the first time. He had such a brilliant time and Joanne made him feel instantly comfortable. Joanne was really good at sending updates. It was very reassuring to see my dog having a great time. He was cuddling with Joanne 10 minutes after leaving him 😀 Thank you Joanne. I would highly recommend her to look after your little family members.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 19, 2026

Joanne is a lovely person and clearly loves the dogs she looks after. She took loads of photos and sent regular updates and made me feel very comfortable leaving our two spaniels with her. They had a lovely time and will definitely be back! Thanks Joanne.

Dotty absolutely loves staying with Joanne. We receive brilliant photo and video updates during the day which prove that she’s having the best time. Dotty is more excited turning up to Joanne’s home than our own!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small fenced patio and with Bushy Park right on my doorstep there is lots of outdoor space I can take your dog to for enrichment and breaks. My cosy flat is dog safe and perfect for R&R.

A typical day

I am happy to bring your dog for a big walk on the common. They’re welcome to go off lead if you are comfortable with that, and they have good recall. They’re welcome to sniff around my garden on regular outdoor breaks and they will get lots of snuggles (and snoozes, of course).

7 to 18 kg

Joanne can host up to 2 pets per night
Please let me know your dog’s feeding schedule, and anything they shouldn’t have. If a dog is agitated/confused by the new environment of my house I sometimes placate with a bit of peanut butter! Please also tell me your dog’s commands and let me know what their recall is like.
