Highlights
Pet care experience
Fun & Treats!
I’ve been walking dogs & providing pet sitting services since I was 10, I love it! I have had over 20 years of experience! I love pets! I currently work freelance and remote work so I am able to tend to the pets on a very flexible schedule. My schedule is very open to the fur babies It’s important to provide a safe and calm environment for the fur babies so if staying at home is the best option, it should be available to them.

Quick responder when I was in a bind Worth every cent! Then some I’m super grateful !!!


Joiful was great to work with. She kept me updated about my dog and how she was doing during her stay. Unfortunately my dog got a bit sick, but Joiful let us know how she was doing and tried to make sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. Overall it was a good experience and I would consider rebooking with her again in the future if needed.

Joi is incredible. Accommodating and flexible with pick up and drop off. She sent so many pictures and gave lots of updates throughout the week. Joi was wonderful with my two dogs as soon as I arrived to drop them off. Would absolutely recommend Joi!


Unfortunately, we did not have a positive experience and I would not recommend Joy to other dog owners. Updates were provided only when prompted and there was a lack of transparency in critical information that affected the wellbeing of my dog. My dog was noticeably lethargic after pickup but nothing was mentioned other than everything went well. I texted Joy to ask if her if he’d gotten into anything and she said greek yogurt. He later had bloody stool so I asked again if there was anything else he’d gotten into and she said he’d gotten into a bag of greenies. I’m very disappointed this information was not provided upfront and it took two inquires to provide. My dog was/is sick and she didn’t let me know. Additionally, Joy was late to our agreed drop off time. Her profile is marked as “no children present” (something we filter for in our sitter search) but she has a toddler. She also failed to let us know that she could no longer provide sitter drop off to our hotel that we had paid for and confirmed with her. We called her 5 minutes after she was supposed to be there where she informed us she couldn’t do sitter drop off because her car had died that week and we then quickly had to make other transportation arrangements.

I wish I could leave 10 stars. I came to Joiful, not only with a senior dog, but a complicated schedule. My first time playing poker in Vegas, so sometimes I could pick up my dog, other days I couldn’t. Dropping off at various morning hours and picking up random times. Joiful was always very accommodating and went above and beyond. I’m super attached to my dog, so it was such a relief to know she was in such good hands. And gave me peace of mind while playing. I would a million times over recommend booking with Joiful. I can’t say thank you enough. ?

It was for an overnight stay. After we got home there was oil stains on our driveway. I asked her about it and she said it was from her car. She then sent me instructions as to how I could clean it up. I did not feel this was my responsibility.

A typical day
Each fur baby is different and each has different likes and dislikes! It’s great to take time to learn about the fur baby, because once we have been acquainted I know exactly what to do and how to please the fur baby.
