Passionate and caring pet lover
Pet care experience
I’ve been on Rover for about two years now, but my experience with pets started way before that! As a kid, I rescued cats, had aquarium fish, rode horses, and had many dogs including my current pups, Mickey, Tesla, and Reba (there should be pictures of them on my profile!). I have experience training puppies, administering oral medications to both cats and dogs, and giving quality play/ walk time to pets. I love walking and have helped many dogs with their weight loss journeys. Furthermore, my own dog will be 13 soon, so I’m very comfortable caring for senior pets. As the saying goes, “if you do what you love, you will never work a day in your life”! Pets are my passion, and I’ve never met one I didn’t love. It’s a big responsibility to count on someone else to care for your pet, and I don’t take that lightly. Your pet’s comfort and safety the most important thing to me, and I’m happy to take requests to make sure they feel right at home.
Reviews
Joie is fantastic! This was our first time getting a cat sitter while we were away for a wedding weekend, and Joie made us feel so comfortable that our cat was being well cared for. She gave us frequent updates to let us know everything was going well, sent us cute photos and videos of our cat, and was super communicative and responded very quickly. We're so grateful to have found her!
Joie is exceptional when it comes to being patient with pets and does her best to make them comfortable and loved. We were out for 3 nights and Joie handled our dog and cat in the best manner possible. She was responsive, continuously updating and asking for advise to provide best care to pets while we were away. We had the best time being away on holiday while we had Joie pet sitting. I wasn’t worried and could enjoy fully since we were extremely assured that my dog and cat will have full security, comfort and needs met. I highly recommend hiring Joie. She is an amazing person, loving and genuinely there to support you. I will use her services again and again. Thank you Joie
Joie has dog sat for me multiple times. She always does an amazing job. My dog loves her and she always leaves the house clean. Thanks Joie!
Second time using Joie to watch my dog and she’s great! My dog absolutely loves her and she’s awesome at sending pictures and updates while away. 10/10

Your pets safety and comfort is my highest priority! As I get to know your pet, I work with their preferences so they can have the best experience. I’m open to jogging or walking with your pet, helping with training, and more. I take the pet owner’s requests very seriously, so if there’s anything I can do to keep your furry friend happy and safe, please ask!
Information joie r. would like to know about your pet
I appreciate prior notice about any ailments your pet has. As the owner of a lovely KC Spaniel with arthritis, I understand the importance of knowing a pet’s physical limitations prior to meeting. It’s also important for me to know if they are or aren’t ok with other dogs or other people, how they like to be walked, and what their favorite treat is!
A typical day
I have a wide array of park options for pets, depending on their physical needs and temperament. There are opportunities for beach, forest, or swamp walks, depending on the pet’s preference. I love doing small training exercises with pets to incorporate physical and mental stimulation. Plus, what pet doesn’t like getting that “good boy/girl” they deserve!

I’m a full time student at FIT, with availability every day except Monday and Wednesday. I also have class Friday mornings, but am available in the afternoon. Besides that, I dedicate Tuesdays and Thursdays exclusively to petcare. On those days, I’m open to mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Plus, I’m almost always available for overnight stays, if asked in advance!
