Work from Home, Dog Mom, Volunteer

Pet care experience

I love dogs (& cats). It's become a real joy in life. I actively volunteer w/a local dog rescue & the city shelter, Chicago Animal Care & Control. I have walked & cared for all different sized and mannered (some not so well mannered, lol) dogs thru the rescue/shelter. I've also fostered dogs helping find their forever homes. My own rescue pup, Asti, has taught me so much. She is shy & timid however also chill, loving and gets along well with other dogs. Before adopting Asti (2015), I had two sibling kitties for 15 & 16 yrs, Martini & Rossi. I work from home. With me, your pup will be the only other dog besides my Asti. I will never have more than one houesguest at a time. **For daycare & overnights, a meet & greet first is necessary, to be sure our dogs are all good. I found meet & greets help Pawrents feel better about the upcoming stay as well. :) Please note, your pup must be fully housetrained and dog friendly. Lastly, because I have my own pup, please have your pup up to date on all vaccinations. I will ask for proof (vet cert) as required by all reputable doggy daycares. Thank you for considering my services! :)

I am so happy to have found Joanne on Rover! I will definitely be rebooking with her ASAP. I picked Joanne based on the fact that she volunteers at the same animal shelter as I used to, so I knew animals were her thing :) She sent me a bunch of pictures and videos of my dog, Sadie, when I was away and I was so excited to receive each one. She also gave me updates through out the day and was good with Sadie's dietary needs and pill giving. Joanne is a huge animal lover. Sadie had an amazing time hanging out with her and her dog, Asti! :)

Joanne is fantastic. She was so great with Butch and I know he felt right at home with her. Joanne was also great to work with as my schedule was a bit crazy. I'm so happy we found her.

Joanne is awesome. She took great care of my pug while I was out of town and we got plenty of pictures. Couldn't have asked for a more easy-going experience. We'll definitely come back to Joanne in the future!

Many thanks to Joanne and Asti for welcoming Dyson into their home. We appreciated the updates with plenty of photos. Dyson had so much fun during his staycation. We highly recommend Joanne!
