Pet care experience

Pet owner turned pet sitter!

I take care of pets like they are part of the family! I currently have a senior pup and cannot see myself committing to any more pets at this point in my life but would still love to have little creatures around to hang and snuggle with! Which is the reason I wanted to start rovering! Would be honored to watch your pets if you are comfortable with an apartment near a park with a senior pup included.

Super communicative and flexible! I could tell my dog had a great time at their place, and they were well provided for, walked frequently, and enjoy themselves

Joy has watched Arlo, Willow, and Rhubarb and been wonderful with all of them. She's sat for Rhubarb since she was a puppy and handles her rowdiness with so much patience. Our snuggly cat Willow adores her every time she visits. Responsible, loving, and someone I trust completely.

Couldn't recommend a better pet sitter than Joy! Joy has always shown our dogs and cat nothing but compassion, care, and the most fun time. Our pet crew always is in the best spirits when we've returned after Joy has taken care of them. On top of that, Joy is extremely considerate of schedules, communication, and regular check-ins. She makes sure we know how the pups are doing but also is considerate of our time and very easygoing. Our pets definitely view Joy as part of the family at this point and you'd be beyond lucky to have Joy as someone to take care of your pet family!

Joy is a wonderful pet sitter! She has taken amazing care of my big mastiff mix Lentil many times, and I trust her completely. My dog is very anxious and needy, and Joy knows exactly how to help her stay calm and take care of her the way she needs. She's very gentle, loving, and attentive!

I have seen Joy care for pets for the last 12 years. She has a warm, patient, and loving energy. She notices when things are off, and ensures they get what they need. She keeps them happy and cared for with such ease and attention. I highly recommend you having her watch your pups and supporting their needs!

Schedule

I work walking distance from my condo and can make it a point to come home for lunch and play/take them out mid day in addition to the morning and evening outing!

Pets

A typical day

Since we live near a park, it’s lots of walks, sniffs and running if they are up for it! I also love to fetch or play tug-of-war with rope toys in the condo as well. I make it a point to have your pups mentally and physically fulfilled.

Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only

Joy can host up to 1 pet per night
With a condo, your pup could potentially have a run in with other animals in the building, on a leash of course. I do just want that to be a full disclosure. But I’m always mindful to keep a healthy distance between any new animals, especially if they have never met yet.
