Joanne has cared for our dogs multiple times now and they always come back happy. She keeps us posted throughout the stay. Would definitely recommend.

We left our dog with Joanne for close to two weeks and Joanne went above and beyond for our girl. Shed send us videos every day and made sure to ask us questions about her to make sure our dog was comfortable during her stay. Shed send even went and mulched an area of her backyard because she noticed our dog did not like the grass at certain times, and gave our girl an oatmeal bath to help with her itching. Will absolutely book with Joanne in the future.

Joanne was great. I know my dogs loved her. She sent me videos of them and they just looked happy and she was petting them and loving on them so I felt really at ease. I was scared to leave them because 13 years I have never left them with anybody she’s the first one that they’ve ever been with without me and I felt really good about it when I picked them up. Thank you, Joann.

Excellent sitter! Joanne kept me updated with frequent photos and videos. There were a few hiccups as Rolo got acclimated to the home and new routine with all the other pups. For example, because there are many pups there is a constant water supply, which he isn’t accustomed to at home (I refill his bowl on a schedule at home), so he tended to drink water more and needed additional attention regarding potty time, but the quick replies helped us get that cleared up early in his stay and he didn’t have any more accidents. She also kept him bathed whenever he would roll around in the grass. He had a great stay, I would definitely book again!

I am retired and need to feel I am contributing to society in some small way. I love animals and they love me, so this is a good fit for me.
