Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy walks & caring visits 🐾
I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my whole life and have always been a huge animal lover. Over the years I’ve owned and cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and gerbils, so looking after animals has always been a big part of my life. I now have my own dog, Daisy! I have had Daisy since she was a tiny little puppy and she's now 2, so I completely understand how important it is to find someone you trust to look after your pet. I’ll always treat every dog with the same care, patience and affection I’d want someone to give my own. I love getting outdoors for walks and I’m equally happy giving them plenty of playtime, attention and cuddles at home. Daisy is usually by my side and will join me on dog walks and sittings. She’s a very friendly, playful and confident Westie who loves being around both people and other dogs. She’s very sociable and loves making new furry friends! 🐶🐾 I know every dog is different, so I’m always happy to follow their usual routine and take the time to get to know what makes them feel happy and comfortable.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand their routines and needs, including feeding, walks, any house rules and anything else you’d like me to know. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll always respect your home and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and settled while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how they’re getting on! Daisy will usually be with me, so I’d always want to make sure your dog is happy and comfortable around other dogs first. She’s very friendly and sociable, but I know every dog is different and their safety and comfort will always come first 🐾
Ratings and reviews
Jo is a wonderfully friendly person who shows great care and consideration for all animals, with a soft spot for dogs. She has dogs herself and always has done, so has plenty of experience with caring for dogs with various behavioural tendencies. She is professional, responsible and reliable. Jo will listen to, respect and recognise your dog’s needs. Ensuring trust is built between both herself and your dog, but also herself and you as their owner. I feel safe knowing Jo will take good care of my pet and would recommend her to anyone!

Schedule
I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit dog walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting into my day. I’m available during weekdays as well as weekends and can often accommodate different times depending on you and your pet’s routine. I have my own dog, Daisy, so walks and spending time outdoors are already a big part of my everyday life!
- 0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kgDogs over 1 year oldJoanne can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I’d love to know a little about your dog’s personality and routine, including how they are around other dogs, as Daisy will usually be with me. Please let me know about anything I should be aware of such as reactivity, recall, pulling on the lead, anxiety, allergies, medical needs or any particular behaviours. I’d also love to know their favourite things, whether that’s certain walks, toys, treats, lots of cuddles or anything else that helps them feel happy and comfortable!
