Pet care experience

Caring and loving dog sitter!

I am an avid dog lover and dog owner since I was five. I got into this business after the frustration of trying to find someone the past couple of years to watch my dogs when I went out of town. I am a high school teacher and have my summers and holidays off which can ease the minds of dog owners when wanting to travel. I will give your dog the love and attention I give my own dogs who are part of our family. I have a fenced yard and can watch any breed of dog as long as they enjoy other dogs. During your dogs stay they will be treated as one of the family. I keep all your house rules so not to be returned with bad habits. I keep them well exercised by either playing in the yard or going on walks. I am a school teacher and my husband is self-employed. We work together to accommodate guest dogs so that they are never home unsupervised more than 4 hours. In addition to Rover, I also accept private clients so my calendar fills up quickly. I try to keep Rover calendar up-to-date however it may not be 100% accurate. I have a fully fenced yard and do not leave the dogs unsupervised. Your dogs become part of our family and will be treated with love and taken care of to the best of our ability.

Joanne was wonderful and communicative. The positive reviews she has are definitely true and I plan to send my pup to her again in the future.

Joanne was great with our dog and made us feel really comfortable while we were away. We loved getting the updates/photos. Our dog came home happy and well cared for. We’d definitely book with them again!

We had a great experience! Joanne kept us updated and sent pictures more than once a day! Our dog felt at home and ate and slept while she was there! You could tell she and her family love doggies! I highly recommend.

Joanne was very easy to work with - she offered a meet and greet prior to our vacation and had great communication with us, sharing pics etc. We felt comfortable leaving our pups with her and her family. We hope she has availability next time!

I want all of our guest dogs to be comfortable and have an enjoyable "doggy vacay" while they are visiting so I ask that all dogs be: -Fully house-broken -Not an obsessive barker (to maintain a calm environment for all dogs) -Be comfortable around other people and dogs -Dogs need to be current with a flea and tick preventative and dewormer -All dogs must be current with shots
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
