Hi! I’m Jo, and animals have been a part of my life since I was two years old. I grew up surrounded by ducks, chickens, hamsters, dogs, birds, and even helped my mom foster and rehome cats—so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I genuinely love all furry friends (reptiles still freak me out a little!), and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My beloved dog Lola passed away this year, and though she’s no longer with us, we now have Queen—who wasn’t originally mine, but has become part of our home and hearts. Your pets will get that same care, affection, and attention. What you can expect from me: • Calm, reliable, and flexible care • A fenced-in yard and a safe, pet-friendly home • Someone who rarely leaves the house—and if I do, your pet is never left alone for long • Backup support: I have trusted people on call to ensure your pets’ needs are always covered • Respect for your routines, rules, and instructions • Tons of updates, photos, and love for your fur babies Meet & Greet: I offer complimentary meet-and-greets near my home to make sure we’re the perfect match and that your pets feel comfortable with me. Star Sitter Status: I’m proud to have over 15 five-star reviews and to be recognized as a Star Sitter on the platform. Your trust truly means everything to me. Holiday Policy: Due to a high number of holiday cancellations in the past, I now have a stricter cancellation policy to ensure I don’t lose opportunities to care for other fur babies who need a sitter. Giving Back: As part of my pledge with Rover, beginning March 2020 I donate 5% of my profits to the Humane Society of the United States. Discount for New Clients: If you’re booking with me for the first time, enjoy $20 off with code: JOANNS76401. If you have any questions or want to learn more, feel free to call or text. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾💛
