Love Them Like My Own
I have grown up with large dogs (Dobermans, Pitties, Mastiffs) my entire life. I have been rescuing Pitties for over 20yrs and am currently on my fourth rescue. I am experienced with medication administration, special needs and, all ages of dogs from newborn to senior.

Safety, trust & environment
I work 7-3 most days but, my dog is yard trained so, can be let out multiple times when I am not at home. Once I do get home, we head out for a walk and then, its dinner time! All of my animals are allowed on my furniture and, choose who's bed they sleep in each night!
Ratings and reviews
We had such a wonderful experience with her and would absolutely book with her again!! We have 8 pets, so leaving them with someone new is a pretty big deal for us, especially because a few of them have specific care needs. She made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. She was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and sent us tons of pictures and updates. She even let us know when she was leaving the house and when she planned to return, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing what was happening at home while we were away. It was obvious from all the pictures that our pets were getting lots of attention, love, and honestly being completely spoiled. She also gave one of our cats his medication and carefully followed the special instructions we left for our dog who gets very anxious during thunderstorms. Knowing she was willing and able to handle those extra care needs meant a lot to us. She also had to coordinate transferring their care to another sitter partway through our trip, and she handled the transition so thoughtfully. She cleaned up and changed the bedding for the next sitter and made the handoff feel seamless. With 8 pets, there are a LOT of routines and little details to keep track of, and she handled everything with so much care. We have 8 happy, well-loved pets, which is really all we could ask for. She is kind, dependable, communicative, attentive, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she is looking after. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets, and we would happily book with her again!





Joy watches my 15 yo cat bailey for me. She takes care of my cat as if it was hers w/lots of love, cuddles, and time. She will spend the time needed catering to your fur baby. Whether she goes to your house or your fur baby goes to her house, they will always be in a safe welcoming atmosphere. We love Joyous as our cat sitter!
