I love to care for animals!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Joie and I recently graduated from Point Park University with a degree in photojournalism (which means I will happily send you lots of pictures of your babies while you’re away). I have grown up with a minimum of 2 dogs in my household and now I have my own dog and two cats. My dogs name is Rory, she is a 3-year-old Australian Shepard mix, and then I have two one-year-old domestic shorthair cats named Mango and Opal. I have been dog and house sitting/walking for about 9 years now and I work with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I love all animals and taking care of them/making them happy beings me so much joy. I hope to meet your fur baby soon!

Joie spent the weekend with my dog and my cat at my house. She was very friendly during our initial meet-up. She was a great house sitter! My pets seemed to be well taken care of and she even brought in my garbage can since I left on garbage day. Joie sent me updates with cute little tidbits about my pets, that let me know that my pets seemed comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Joie to others who are in need of a house sitter for their pets! Thanks again, Joie!

Joie has been pet sitting for us for several years. She is an extremely responsible young woman who has had our complete trust and allowed us to travel without worry. Joie communicates quickly when we request a date, arrives on time, takes great care of the animals and leaves the house as she found it. Our cats go outside every day and have to be locked in each night. They are hesitant to come to anyone they do not trust. They love Joie. She takes a photo of them when they are settled and locked inside for the night and sends it to ease our minds that they are safe and sound. I would highly recommend Joie for pet sitting.

Safety, trust & environment

As a owner, I would want someone to treat my babies the way I treat them. Rory is always kept on a leash unless we are in an enclosed area that is safe for her to roam. I would never put your animal in a position where it’s safety is at risk and I am very careful while taking them out of the house.

Information Joie K. would like to know about your pet

I am very open to watching dogs and cats of all ages and needs. All I ask is for open communication about the needs of your pet and what you expect from me as a sitter prior to the start of the job so that I can care for your pet the way you would.

A typical day

I love taking dogs for long walks, giving lots of belly rubs, and relaxing with them after a long day of excitement. I love taking my dog to Washington’s landing to lap the island and relax by the water after our long walk.
