Highlights
Pet care experience
Rescue Experienced, Doggie Mom
I’m a positively energetic woman and, as a pet sitter, my focus is on caring for your fur babies. Next time you need an extra hand with your dogs or cats, contact me. I own a reliable car, and I’m able to overnight at your home whenever needed. Besides my two adult dogs, I don’t have children at home, so my schedule is extremely flexible on weekends and weekday evenings. I have been a pet mom for 16 years and my husband and I love our fur babies. I have experience with different breeds and sizes since I used to foster parent for Angels Among Us Pet Rescue. My two dogs were adopted from that rescue organization, and I have never met a dog or cat I don’t love! I have experience dog sitting for clients in GA and Florida, and if you book me, you may contact them for references. Just ask me for their names and phone numbers. I currently live in Palm Coast, FL. I have traveled to housesit/petsit in FL for several years where I used to help out a real estate professional who travels a few times a year. She is one of my references who can be contacted upon request. I used to stay at their house 24/7 and take care of 3 medium dogs and 4 cats for up to two weeks sometimes, while I also care for the house and collect mail. I will protect your fur baby as I protect mine, so I prefer to use secure leash/harnesses while on walks. If you don’t have a harness and leash for your fur baby, I will provide a soft harness leash, which is rescue-foster-parent approved. I require your pet to have UTD vet records and a secure collar with ID tags at all times. This requirement protects your fur babies and helps all of us within our communities. Puppies who aren’t yet old enough for full shots get a pass, of course.

Safety, trust & environment
I have experience with a variety of breeds through either dog sitting or fostering rescued dogs. I have 2 dogs, April BlueSky and Aria Tempest, and Aria is a bit selective and reactive to other animals. Thus, I prefer to dog sit or cat sit at my client’s homes where your fur babies are used to their environment and they can keep to their own routines.
Ratings and reviews
Joelma and John are terrific. Photos/updates were sent while we were gone. We came back from a short trip the pups were happy, the house was clean, poop was picked up. In addition, one of my dogs has ear tip Hematoma, John changed the bandages, and the ear tips looked good. We will be using them again.
Wonderful communication. My fur babies loved her and her husband. They were accommodating and my home was clean and just like I left it Sent me pics everyday. I would definitely trust my home and my fur babies to Joelma
Excellent communication. I feel confident when I leave my active boys in her care.
Cared for our home and fur baby so that we could enjoy a few days away with no worrying
Thank you Joelma and John!! I am so excited to have found Joelma and John. I have two Great Dane’s that take some time to warm up to new people, but Joelma and John knew how to act around them, therefore, my pups warmed up to them quickly. While we were away, Joelma and John took excellent care of them. I received updates and photo’s, bowls were cleaned, and poop was picked up. When we arrived home, the pups seemed happy and relaxed. We have already booked with Joelma again, and are working on additional dates.
Stayed in our home with our dog son and left it beautiful for us with all of our mail set aside and a very happy dog to come home to. So grateful for Joelle and John’s responsible care

Schedule
I live in Palm Coast, FL, and own a second home I Ormond-By-The-Sea, FL. I work at Daytona State College (Flagler/Daytona), but I am available on weekdays mornings, usually before 9:30am, and in the evenings after 6pm and later, depending on the day of the week. Also, I am off work on most observed Federal Holidays and school holidays. My husband helps me with daytime visits, when we pre-arrange for that with my clients. I will not bring anyone to my clients’s houses without permission. Please, check with me for specific dates and times and we will likely be able to work something out. My work schedule varies from time to time due to changes in the College’s semester schedule and the breaks between semesters.
