Safety, trust & environment

Since I live in a strict no-pets apartment, I do not offer boarding at this time. Regardless, I prefer to do house and pet sitting in your home to help your pet adjust to a new person in their familiar environment. I will follow your detailed care instructions closely and ensure open communication, reaching out if any issues arise. My goal is to provide a smooth and comfortable experience for both you and your pet!

Information Johanna L. would like to know about your pet

It's important for me to know any specific needs or routines your pet has, including dietary restrictions, medical conditions, and medication schedules. Please inform me about their temperament, any triggers or fears, and their favorite activities or toys. Understanding your pet's daily routine and any special instructions will help me ensure they feel comfortable and happy while in my care.

A typical day

I enjoy engaging with pets in ways that match their unique personalities and energy levels. For dogs, I love taking them on walks, playing fetch, or just riling them up! For cats, I enjoy play with toys like feather wands and laser pointers, as well as providing cozy spots for them to explore and relax. I always make sure to provide plenty of attention and affection, whether it's through playtime, gentle petting, or simply keeping them company.

Pet care experience

I took care of friends’ and professors’ pets during college and have had a dog and cat in the past. I have taken care of puppies as well as senior dogs. I have also had experience taking care of turtles, fish, and parakeets growing up.

I was really nervous as this was my first time finding a sitter through Rover. Johanna put me at ease by checking in and following up with me throughout the process. My dog was sick with pneumonia and she made sure she was looked after with care!!

Johanna has been such a huge help to our household. Davy loves spending time with her, and we love coming back to a home that’s been taken such good care of.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
