I love dogs and I love to spoil!
Pet care experience
There's no greater joy to me than having a dog. I give special attention to my 7 year old bull/boxer and your fur baby will be part of the family for as long as they are staying. I have a big yard to play chase and many toys that my pretty girl likes to share with her friends. I encourage dogs to be dogs and love to watch them play, watch TV, enjoy treats, relax and of course lay all over us. I live in a quiet neighborhood where dogs love to walk their humans each night; I am no exception! I will strive to ensure your pup enjoys his or her stay with me. There's lots to check out! Can't wait to meet you! I work full-time: Monday & Tuesday in the office; Wednesday-Friday at home. I usually run errands on the weekends, but am home most of the time. Your pup will be part of my family for the duration of his/her stay. I follow your instructions to keep a regular routine, but other than that, the dogs have the run of the house. I have a big fenced in yard for running and playing, lots of toys and treats, dog beds and a crate (just in case). I have no problems administering medicine or taking your pup to the vet if needed.
Reviews
JoAnne is amazing, great!! She is super nice and took care of my beagle as if she was hers. She has taken care of Keyla twice already. I highly recommend her and for sure would leave my dear Keyla again with her. She is the best.
JoAnne is amazing! She is so good with our dogs and they clearly have a great time there. She sent pictures every day and it really helped seeing how happy our dogs were. She was completely understanding when our flight got cancelled which made the whole ordeal a little better knowing our fur babies were in great hands. We will absolutely use JoAnne again.
Our dogs are so excited when we drive up to JoAnne's! We feel very comfortable leaving our boys there for both boarding & daycare!
JoAnne was great with communicating with us and taking care of our 2 dogs. We have been requiring a lot of care since we recently moved to the state and have lots of home projects. JoAnne is our new go-to sitter!

Safety, trust & environment
We stick to a schedule every day with 2 meals per day, treats afterward and then let them out to do their business. If your dog has a specific routine, I will make sure to follow it as closely as I can. My back yard is big - 3/4 surrounded by a privacy fence, 1/4 by chain link. I have multiple water stations throughout the house as well as plenty of gates to separate the kids while they are eating of if they need a "time out". I just live in my house, my dog Hunny really owns it. LOL
Home
Information JoAnne F. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has special needs, diets, or quirky behaviors that I should pay attention to. If he/she is food/toy aggressive or their play style is a little rougher. I also would like to know if she/he is a food bandit (taking treats off of the counter) or an escape artist. Please advise the commands that will help me understand when they need to go out or when they just want attention.
A typical day
I like to sit outside in my yard and watch them play. I will join in their fun from time to time chasing them around the yard. I will play in their style with or without toys. I love to sit on the couch and cuddle also.

Availability
I currently work from home 3-4 days per week and will be able to pay lots of attention to your babies. I can let them out often, feed them, let them exercise in my yard and of course love them.
