Highlights
Pet care experience
Dachshund boarding home from home
I am new to Rover however, as a Dachshund owner myself and having had and looked after dogs my whole life, I will provide your pet a safe, warm and loving home whilst you are away. I only accept one Dachshund at a time.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I’ve known Jo as a very good friend for well over 30 years, and her life has revolved around dogs since she was 5 years old. She is a lifelong dog owner and caregiver with an incredible natural instinct for canine care. Her decades of hands-on experience make her completely trustworthy, knowledgeable, and reliable. Any dog in her care is in the safest, most loving hands possible.
Joanne looked after my dachshund whilst we were on summer holidays. I would highly recommend. She sent us pictures and updates and made sure that our dog has a wonderful time too which is very comforting. Her house and garden are secure and safe and very pet friendly. Will definitely be booking her again.
Joanne is absolutely wonderful with our dog and other dogs that come to stay. She always takes the time to understand their routines, quirks, and favourite activities, and it shows — they always settle with her straight away. Her calm, friendly manner and clear love for animals make her an exceptional sitter.

Schedule
I will only have one Dachshund at a time so your pet will have my full care and attention alongside my own pet. I provide day boarding or cover for holidays. I have one miniature Dachshund called Rosie so your pet will always have a gentle play mate to have fun with. I will always try to match your home routine eg breakfast time, length of walks, favourite treats etc so that your sausage will settle and feel at home. I am within a mile of a reputable vet if any medication is needed. A meet and greet is welcomed before you decide to commit to a booking with me.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a secure fenced large garden and plenty of beautiful countryside on hand if your pet would like additional walks. My house is single storey and there are no areas that your pet is not welcome…even on the couch! I have plenty of toys and bedding but I’m happy for you to bring along whatever you need for your pet to make them feel at home. If required I send pictures and updates whilst you are away so you can relax and enjoy yourself knowing that your pet is having a wonderful time too!!

A typical day
We will have a fun time exploring and playing in the garden and if preferred we will go out into the beautiful Kent countryside to explore the lovely sights and smells.
