Pet care experience

TLC from a true animal lover

Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by pigs, goats, horses, chickens, you name it! That early connection with animals sparked a lifelong passion for caring for all kinds of creatures. Professionally, I’ve worked as a dog/cat groomer and at a daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs, cats, and pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from high energy puppies to senior pets who just want a little love and peace. At home, I’ve had cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, you could say I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love! Whether it’s giving a pup the perfect belly rub, making sure your pet stays on schedule, or simply providing a calm, safe environment, I bring experience, patience, and genuine love to every animal I care for.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have one female dog and one male cat at my home. We have a small fenced area i use for potty breaks, and we use the leash around the yard. The house is set back on a hill away from the main road. I keep a clean, calm environment, always follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and stay alert to any changes in behavior or health. I’m also happy to provide regular updates like photos, videos, or messages so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Building trust with both pets and their humans means everything to me. I treat every animal with kindness and respect, and I’m committed to being someone you can rely on, every time.

Joey was so great with my fur baby! She helped us out in a pinch. Great communication and loved by Sophie.

Joey was so great with our pets we booked her twice in the same week. We came home to healthy, happy pets and Joey was great at communicating. Would definitely use her again.

Beyond thrilled with how loved all..ALL of our animals were. Even our dog who cowers from anyone but his family was loving in them. So so incredibly happy our animals got to meet someone, aside from us, who genuinely loves animals! Highly recommend!

Joey took excellent care of my cat Sasha while I was away for a few days. She showed up twice a day at exactly feeding time, and spent time playing with her as well. Sasha is a sassy Siamese but Joey had no problem handling her. Sasha has a new friend in Joey. We both give her two paws up.

The only obligations I have are getting my daughter and little sister off to school in the mornings. So I'd have availability early mornings before they go in if needed, and anytime throughout the day and night to give your pets the attention they need.
