Safety, trust & environment

I currently do not offer pet care in my home for the safety of your pet and mine, but I will ensure safety at all times taking care of your pet by following any instructions left and being aware of the environment and home I am providing the service in.

Information Johanna L. would like to know about your pet

Any special instructions whether it'd be about their diet, their walking routine, their favorite toys or anything they like or dislike. Also helpful to give a little insight on them!

A typical day

I love taking the time for the pets to know me first and build a trust bond because that is important and I love following up with cuddles and love. Making sure to give them a daily walk, I like to make sure to sanitize after if needed and follow up with playing with them.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is the amount of hands-on experience I’ve had caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and needs. For four years, I cared for a senior dog until she peacefully passed away, which taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of providing specialized care. I’ve also cared for newborn puppies, assisted during a dog’s labor and birth, and helped families raise young puppies who needed constant attention and routine. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with a wide range of temperaments. Some have needed three walks a day and lots of playtime, while others preferred quiet companionship and their personal space. I’ve also worked with dogs that required extra patience due to anxiety, age, or unique behavioral needs. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality so I can provide the care that’s best for them. I’m experienced with different feeding schedules and specialized diets, and I understand how important it is to stick to a pet’s normal routine. I believe consistent communication is just as important as great pet care, so I make sure owners receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication while they’re away. I previously provided dog boarding in my own home, but now that I have two dogs of my own, I primarily offer care in my clients’ homes. This allows your pet to stay comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving attentive, personalized care with minimal disruption to their routine. My goal is simple: to treat every dog as if they were my own and give pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in caring, experienced, and reliable hands.

Jojo is genuinely the most beautiful person I’ve ever met, she shines into every room she enters. Her smiles glistens the rays in the air. She alludes such a strong presence that it’s hard to miss her, that’s what I love about Jojo. Her willingness to shine through in and out, her eagerness to love and feel, her passion to cry and laugh and yell. She is a loud person and that’s okay, that means she is able to speak for herself and speak so her voice is heard, that’s powerful. There’s no one in my life that will ever compare to Jojo, she is a gem in the specs of diamonds. I love her so much.
