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.

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

Great experience! Our puppy is a rescue and was very scared at first, but Joanna was patient and helped her calm down before I left. I only needed help for an hour while I attended a doctors appointment and when I came back, Luna was smiling big, happy, and clearly had a great time. I am sure she will be excited to go back! Thank you, Joanna, for loving our little pup as much as we do!

From the very first meet and greet, Joanna was so sweet with our Jersey boy. By the time we dropped him off for his stay, he ran straight to her without even saying bye to us 😂 Joanna kept us updated the whole time with pictures and videos, and it was so clear that Jersey got attached to her so quickly. On top of that, Joanna has such a wonderful sense of humor and personality. She made us feel comfortable from the start, which made leaving Jersey with her so much easier. You can truly tell she loves dogs with her whole heart, and it shows in the way she cares for them. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Jersey was not only well taken care of, but also loved and completely spoiled by Joanna and her family. Thank you so much for treating our fur baby like one of your own and making him feel right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’ll definitely be booking with Joanna and John again!

We are always grateful for John and Joanna for taking good care of our girl. She loves them and is most happy to be with them 😊 We trust them fully to care for her when we are away.

Our doxie always has a great stay with Joanna and John! We know is is in the best hands 🤍
