Pet care experience

Reliable and Loving Pet Care

I’ve always loved animals and have had a variety of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, and even pet rats! In high school, I had the amazing opportunity to volunteer at the SPCA, where I gained even more experience caring for animals. I truly enjoy bonding with pets and making sure they feel safe and loved.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for your beloved pets in your home, I ensure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I respect their space and routines, following any specific instructions you provide for feeding, exercise, and general care. I always take extra precautions to keep your pet secure and content, offering attention, playtime, and affection while maintaining a peaceful environment. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priorities, and I’ll make sure they are well looked after until you return.

This is the first time I've used Joy as my pet sitter. She was great at sending me daily updates with photos of my fur babies. Letting me know everything was fine. I'm booking her again and highly recommend her services. She's a lovely young lady.

Joy was great ! She was excellent at communicating and we always got many pictures of the pups. Joy was also very flexible when we had to change the plan a bit. Thank you !!!!!

Joy watched our dog and house for 8 days and 7 nights. We received daily updates on everything which was so good to know everything was going good. When we came home everything was perfect and no surprises. I would highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for someone good with dogs and also house sitting.

Joy was fantastic! She provided wonderful communication and lots of pictures - checking in often and providing us peace of mind. She left our house in perfect condition. Our fur babies already miss her. Highly recommend!

Joy watched our two beagles for us overnight while we had our wedding, we’ve never left our dogs home alone over night with anyone but family before but Joy made us feel so at ease.The dogs love her so much, and she sent multiple check ins with a bunch of photos as well. It made my wedding day so much more at ease knowing my fur babies were well taken care of. HIGHLY recommend, she’s amazing! 🤍

Schedule

My schedule is quite flexible, and I’m happy to fit pet care into my daily or weekly routine. Since I don’t drive, I focus on pets in my local area, which allows me to be present and consistent with care. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning or just offering companionship, I'm happy to adjust to the routines of the pets and ensure they receive the attention they need. (Although I don't drive, I have very reliable transportation from my partner!)

To ensure I provide the best care for your pet, it's helpful to know a few things in advance: Dietary preferences and feeding schedule – What and when do they eat? Any food allergies or restrictions? Exercise and play preferences – Do they enjoy long walks, playtime, or quiet activities? Behavioral quirks – Any special behaviors or triggers I should be aware of? What motivates them? Commands they respond too? Health needs – Any medications or medical conditions I need to manage? Routine and comfort – What’s their usual schedule like, and where do they feel most comfortable (e.g., favorite spots for resting)? Any furniture or rooms that are off limits? Emergency contact info – Who should I reach out to in case of an emergency, and is there a nearby vet? Socialization - Are they comfortable with other animals or people?
