Boarding to Walks

Pet care experience

"Hi there! My name is Joanne, and I've been surrounded by furry, feathery, and scaly friends since I was a child. Growing up in a household filled with cats, hamsters, rats (or technically mice), fish, and birds, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Currently, my life revolves around the delightful antics of my own little furball, Munchkin, who brings endless joy and companionship into my home. From feeding and grooming to playtime and cuddles, I understand the importance of providing personalized care tailored to each pet's unique needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've had the pleasure of helping out friends by pet-sitting their beloved dogs. Whether it's taking them for leisurely walks in the park, staying overnight to ensure their comfort, or simply providing companionship and affection, I approach each pet-sitting opportunity with dedication and enthusiasm. Living with two adorable guinea pigs as roommates has only deepened my love for animal companionship. I happily lend a helping hand whenever my roommate's furry friends need extra attention or care. With a lifetime of experience and a genuine passion for animals, I'm committed to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your cherished pets while you're away. Rest assured, they'll be in capable and caring hands with me!"

"Joanne's love for animals runs deep. Growing up, we had a menagerie of cats, hamsters, fish, and even mice, and she cared for them all with a big heart. She's always had a soul for animals. Her time in AmeriCorps was truly impactful, especially the part where she got to ride a therapy horse. She and her AmeriCorps team dedicated countless hours volunteering at animal shelters, even fostering a kitten briefly until it found a forever home. Now, Joanne's taken that love and commitment into her own home, where she adores her cat, Munchkin. Her care and affection for animals are undeniable. We even have Guinea pigs now, and she's always helping out with them. If you're looking for a pet sitter who understands the heart and soul of your furry family members, Joanne is the perfect choice."
