Pet care experience

Eccentric animal lover

I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds and sizes for over 5 years. Coworker and friends trust me with their precious fur babies. I’m patient enough to work with puppies or senior dogs as well. I’m also very comfortable with cats and their different temperaments.

Joanne is a great sitter, she did an excellent job with my Hershey! She stayed in contact with me throughout the evening, checked in with updates regarding Hershey, and shared pictures. This was my first time using a sitter through Rover and I’m so glad I lucked out with Joanne. Her experience with pets was perfect for Hershey (and me lol) since he’s still a young puppy and used to being with me mostly. I will definitely work with her again!

Joanne has been absolutely phenomenal looking after my fur baby Kenny. He’s not the nicest cat, but she’s able to handle him with care and love which says a lot because he isn’t the friendliest with others. She’s taken care of him numerous of times for me and each time she’s sent photographs and videos of him to give me the reassurance I need as a cat mom. I also know that she’s great with all dogs as she’s watched a few of my friend’s dogs while they were out of town. Her compassion for all animals is truly one of a kind and I know that any pet in her care will be treated with love as though they were her own. I highly recommend Joanne to any fur parents who are in need of a pet sitter. Chances are you won’t find anyone better than her.
