About John & Joanna W.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
We care for a clients dog like it is our own. This means, meals, potty breaks, play time, a safe place to sleep away from others or take a break, a giant back yard and individual attention. The pet deserves respect from humans if we want respect from them.

Information John & Joanna W. would like to know about your pet
Our dog gets along well with every dog she has met. She often shows them games we play such as chasing balls and toys around the back yard. She is gentle with smaller dogs and older dogs.
A typical day
I'm an early riser, so I get up and let dogs out while I make coffee. Breakfast for everyone, then an hour or two of chores around the house. Then we are frequently outside in our back yard for hours, sitting in our gazebo, playing with our dog Penny with balls or working in the back garden. We regularly spend at least 3-4 hours outside each day outside.

Mans Best Friend in a BIG Back Yard
Pet care experience
I've had dogs around my whole life. I'm patient with puppies, senior dogs, nervous dogs and high energy dogs. I've potty trained several dogs and 1.5 humans. 42 years ago, a dog taught me how to walk.
Reviews

Foggy had such a great time at Joanna & John’s. He got along great with their dog and came home tuckered out and very happy. We would happily book with them again!

Trixie just had her second stay and had a wonderful time!

Joanna was a fantastic dog boarder! My dog was so happy staying with her for 2 days. She fed him his food and treats and she has a spacious backyard for dogs to roam and play. She has a repeat customer in us now! :)
John and Joanna are simply the BEST! My sister and her husband were out of town and they left their precious baby with a sitter in Maryland. The sitter cancelled their services all of a sudden and demanded they come and get Shiva right away. My sister called me panicking and I was able to sign up on Rover and find John and Joanna. Their response came within minutes that they are available to take care of Shiva for 2 full days starting within a couple of hours. They are top notch sitters. They even messaged me to remind me to order more dog food as it will finish soon after we pick him back up. At the end of the services, Shiva did not want to come back from their home - what else do I need to say! Thank you again, John and Joanna for coming to the rescue at the last minute and taking care of Shiva. God bless both of you and your family!
