Sit and Stay-At-Home with Joey!
Pet care experience
Hi! I know how stressful it can be on pets when their owner leaves and happy to offer my services to pet sit in their own environment! I will give them plenty of love, attention, walks, and whatever else they may need while you are away. I am self-employed so besides a few hours a days for necessary errands, I will be at home with your dog. I had a 14 year old black lab who was my sweet boy and while I am not ready for a new pet, I have a lot of love to give yours! Growing up we had Golden Retrievers, yellow labs, and and Doberman Pinschers. I have pet sat for numerous family and friends throughout the years and look forward to taking care of your pet and home. I don't have any restrictions, but I do request a meetup prior to taking care of your pup. Look forward to meeting you and your beloved pet.
Reviews
Joey was absolutely fantastic with our two pups! She was prompt with her visits and gave our boys plenty of attention and outdoor time. The updates after every visit were great and thorough and she included several pictures to allow us to see our guys. Joey also inquired about a couple of marks on the couch and on one of the dog's body and asked if we needed her to care for them in any way. Overall a fantastic experience and we will be sure to use Joey in the future as needed!
Joey was great with my stinky, cute Rubydog! I got pictures and videos each day, and could see Ruby growing closer and fonder with kisses and cuddling. The place and my pooch were in great shape when we got back. Would absolutely recommend and hope to have Joey stay with Ruby in the future.
We had peace of mind during our trip - thankful for Joey!
Joey watched our two dogs while we were in Miami for the weekend. Before I booked I left a detailed explanation of the fact that one of our dogs was newly adopted and very sensitive to being left alone. I let her know the time frame we would expect her to stay and that it would need to be overnight on Saturday. She agreed that this would work for her schedule. When we came home on Sunday night the bed looked the exact same as when we left and the fresh sheets I put out were still sitting there untouched (I texted her letting her know where they were on Saturday). We asked if she stayed the night and she assured us that she did but did not change the sheets. I do not have proof that she didn't stay the night but it is highly unlikely that she did. Also considering that Roxy chewed through her dog bed that was in the crate; I suspect this occurred in the middle of the night while she was left alone. I believe that I paid for a few dog walks a day as opposed to house sitting. Beside that frustration, Joey was pleasant to meet in person and the dogs seemed overall well cared for during our absence with the exception of everything I mentioned above.

Information Joey C. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your dog is good on a leash. Dog walks are so much more fun if the pup isn't dragging me down the trail! I do not have any breed preferences.
A typical day
I am happy to take your dog on neighborhood walks and even venture out to trails (on leash) and dog parks if you so desire. Whatever is their normal routine, I happily stick to it while you are away.
