Paws & Claws Care

Hello all! My name is Joanne and I would love to watch your fur baby. I have over 15 years of experience in caring for pets (cats and/or dogs). I am very comfortable in caring for dogs at any size or age and will also administer medication, if necessary. I have no doubt in my mind that you will be stress free when your pup is under my care. Also, I am willing to make last minute accommodations, so please don't hesitate to contact me. However, a meet & greet will be required for all bookings as I have 2 small children.

Joanne was amazing with our dog. Very professional. I think it's great that she does a meet and greet in advance.

My dog had a wonderful time with Joanne + family! He immediately made himself at home when I dropped him off and looked like he had the best time in all the photos and videos I received. I’m always nervous leaving him with anyone who isn’t family, but I had the peace of mind that he was well taken care of and having fun while I was out of town.

Took great care of our dog. Gave medicine as needed and had him outside to play. Sent daily pictures or videos which we loved.

Our cat Journey had a delightful time at Joanne’s for a long weekend. We were impressed with the clear communication, lovely home environment, and delightful family that took such great care of him. We highly recommend Joanne and will not hesitate to use her again when were visiting family in the area.

Joanne and her family took great care of my cat in their home. I was worried about leaving my nervous cat with with someone he doesn’t know because he hates changes to his routine and environment. Joanne did a fantastic job keeping me updated and communicating. I’d definitely choose Joanne and her family to watch my cat again.
