I work from home-love dogs & people
Pet care experience
I am reliable and responsible, with attention to detail. I love dogs; hanging out with them, walking around the neighborhood with them, and playing. My profession as a bodyworker means I do manual manipulation on people in order to help injuries heal and bring about improved alignment. I make my own schedule and can build in time to do visits and walks. Some of my clients bring their dogs with them to sessions with me, and then I negotiate with the dogs if they want to be worked on, too. Often they do! It's really fun giving love to dogs this way. I just melt in how dogs show their appreciation for life with lots of kisses and leans.
Reviews
Great communication and my dog loves her! Will book again in the future.
Joy is a companion to all animals, never viewing them as owned but as creatures who give and need love and support. A pet owner herself, Joy's devotion to her cat Jefferson is so adorable. On the logistical side, Joy has a strong business sense and work ethic that will ensure timely and professional service at all times.

I have a fenced in yard for bathroom breaks and playtime. Inside, I have ample water and plenty of dog beds with space for lounging.

Information Joy C. would like to know about your pet
I need to know how the dog responds to cats. I have two cats that are fine with dogs, and if the dog is aggressive. I can’t have the pets interact. I also need any pets boarded to be okay with sleeping in a crate.
A typical day
We’ll walk at the park in the morning, play in the backyard, eat and then sleep. Around lunchtime, another round of play and a bathroom break in the backyard. And then that cycle repeats once or twice more until the before-dinner walk. Dogs get a bathroom break right before going to sleep in later evening.

Availability
My dog knows my work-from-home routine, so another dog could fit right in. Walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, food are all taken care of. I see clients about three or four times a day, so dogs always love saying hi and welcoming new people into the space.
