Pet care experience

A wagging tail is my priority!

I have owned, taken care of, and loved many different breeds my whole life so I have experience with all kinds of temperaments, ages and special needs. I use positive reinforcement and NEVER resort to physical discipline of any kind! I am fit and strong (can carry/pick up dogs up to 25kg). I have also had experience working at a humane society in South Africa. I can administer oral medication; I can administer ear and eye medications; I can administer skin treatments; I am comfortable clipping nails if the dog is not fearful of the process; I love brushing coats! I am able to soothe dogs that are stressed or scared (eg: during storms, fireworks etc). I treat my own dogs like family (my babies!) and will treat yours the same way!

Jonine was incredible! She kept me up to date with photos every single day we were away. Her home is so inviting and dog friendly, my boys settled in right away. I couldn’t recommend Jonine more for boarding or any kind of care for your babies!! I will definitely be rebooking.

I would 100 percent recommend Jonines services to anyone and everyone! I can’t say enough good things! Dolly loves every moments she gets to spend with Jonine! Jonine always sends tons of pictures and updates throughout the day and always responds to any questions and concerns immediately!

I would need to know the following: • any medical issues, including surgeries and injuries, past and present. I will not take care of very sick dogs - sorry. • dog MUST be house trained. I do not accept "pad trained" dogs. This becomes an unpleasant visit with me cleaning up mess in my house. • any aggressive/guarding tendencies (eg. possessive over food or toys etc) • has the dog been spayed/neutered? • is the dog comfortable around cats, other dogs, and children? • age of the dog • general temperament including any phobias I do not accept pitbulls/ bull terriers/ Staffordshire terriers/ rottweilers or any other aggressive breeds, or any mixes thereof.
