Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your family member as instructed and make sure you feel comfortable while you are away just as much as I will look after them.

Information Johanna B. would like to know about your pet

Preferences of sleeping areas, what motivates them, any previous issues with "strangers". If there are specific training goals you are working on, I will continue them.

A typical day

I take the time to walk and play with dogs to exercise them releasing excess energy that sometimes in the cause of certain behaviors. I myself am a hiker and if time allows, I would love to take dogs out on trails.

Animal caretaker and trainer

Pet care experience

I am an animal caretaker with extensive vet care, animal training, enrichment, and house-sitting experience. I currently am the Animal Welfare Manager of NiSHA, our local animal shelter. I take the time to get to know your pet, can offer short training sessions if necessary, and can take on any type of medical care possible including insulin injections, fluid administration, and pilling difficult pets. I currently am the animal welfare manager at Nisha. My experience does not end with the usual pets as I have many years of exotics experience including birds, reptiles, fish, and small mammals. I have experience with high energy breeds and have worked closely with friends and others to work through behavioral challenges and training breakthroughs that other trainers may not have been able to make. I take the time to get to know your pet and you. I am trustworthy and calm.

Johanna was able to jump in short notice when our other sitter got sick. She always takes good care of our fur babies. So grateful!

Johanna took care of our 2 labs and 2 cats for a weekend. She is a very responsible sitter, communicates regularly and has a good understanding of the animals and their needs. We got daily feedback and were very happy that our dogs got some great exercise.
