Hesitant to reach out because your rescue dog's behaviors are less than "best of show" at any given time? No worries! My current role as a canine care tech at an animal shelter has taught me to understand and navigate the unique needs (and sometimes challenges) that come along with rescued dogs. My training has led me to become specialized in handling (or not-handling) people-shy, reactive, or resource-guarding dogs safely and patiently. I strive to always respect an animal and follow their lead, so as to not push them past their comfort zones. I'm here to provide comfort for your pets, and peace of mind for you!

Safety, trust & environment
While my daytime schedule doesn’t make me a great fit for young puppies or pets with major separation anxiety, it does allow me the availability to make them feel safe and secure overnight (or on a drop-in basis) while their people are out.
Information Joannimal R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or considerations I can prepare for ahead of time; your furbaby's comfort is my main priority!
A typical day
I love to watch animals just be themselves- playing and being goofy! I am active but I admit having extra four-legged motivation to get moving and exploring doesn't hurt! I’m skilled in Canine Enrichment and love finding new ways to keep your pet entertained while you’re away.

Pet care experience
🐾 Hello! I’m Jo (aka Joannimal, given to me due to my fondness of all types of critters!) I recently formed my petsitting business Creature Comforts In-Home Pet and Plant Care & I’m happy to have been partnering with Rover since 2019! I have been taking care of animals since I began riding horses at age 9. I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, rodents, aquatic frogs and reptiles! I currently have a sweet female Miniature Daschund, Harley, who's around 10 years old, and a gorgeous male 3 year old void kitty named Gerard (/Rawr/Little Man/Sweet Pea, etc, etc).
