Pet care experience
Animals are not just pets, they're family too! I will care for your fury companion as if they're my own! I currently work at a dog training facility in SF and I have volunteered at animal shelters, so I have experience with various different type of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I even volunteered at an animal shelter in Ibiza, Spain! I also have experience with caring for dogs who might be ill or timid and can help with their needs. I have always taken care of my family's dogs (cousins, aunts, uncles etc.) when they were out of town and I truly love dogs. I am a trustworthy person who believes that dogs should be cared after with love. My availability is very flexible and I would be happy to help with walks, drop visits, and sitting needs. You'll receive updates throughout the day and a few photos of your pup having the time of his/ her life! I really can't wait to meet your dog and help out when needed!
Reviews
Joanne did an amazing job! Did everything we asked for, and had great write ups and photos.
Joanne is wonderful! You can tell that she really understands dogs. She was wonderful with our sensitive dog, making sure that he felt comfortable and appropriately stimulated. Her communication is also quite excellent. Definitely recommend Joanne!
Don’t hesitate, Joanne is incredible! She took such great care of Luna, was incredibly flexible, sent tons of pictures, was proactive, went out of her way to ensure Luna got the care and exercise she needed, patient, understanding and so much more. Luna is a GSP and for other hunting dog owners you know what a feat that is. I always felt like Luna was safe and loved. Thanks again Joanne!
Joanne did a great job of taking care of my cat!

Safety, trust & environment
I live by several parks nearby, as well as Crane Cove beach if your dog enjoys the water. I also live on a pretty quiet street where dogs can relax and be comfortable. I do not have any pets and I rarely have more than one dog boarded at my home - could be perfect for your pup who prefers their own time!
Home
Information Joanne M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know your pets' feeding, exercise and bathroom schedule, as well as their favorite toys, activities and treats. Do your pets get along with others? Do your pets have any triggers I should know about? Do they have any medical issues? Do they know any commands and/or tricks? Are there any specific places or parks that you prefer me to take your pup to? Make sure to provide your veterinary and emergency contact info as well. I can't wait to get to know your furry friend!
A typical day
I truly enjoy stimulating dogs physically and mentally. They will enjoy long walks around my neighborhood, hikes, and some training games at home. I can help with any training you may be working at home or even get them started on something you wanted to work on!

Availability
I currently work at a dog training facility Mon - Thurs. I can ensure your pup gets in plenty of exercise in the morning and I can bring them to work where I can crate them and let them socialize with other dogs if the dog enjoys socialization with other dogs. On the days that I’m not working, I would love to take your dog out on an adventure, whether it’s a hike, a long walk in a different environment, or a place to socialize with other dogs!
