A dog's best friend

Pet care experience

I have been caring for animals since I was a small child. They are my best friends and usually my preferred companions. I am very active and enjoy walking pets, playing catch or swimming with dogs. I'm an experienced and responsible dog sitter with many references.

Joy's love of animals is evident, and they love her too! She has watched our fur babies many times over the last 7 years. We used to have a pack of 4 senior dogs ( ages 14 to 17 ) and 2 cats, some of who required medications which she handled flawlessly. We couldnt ask for a better caregiver. She provided supportive care, love, hugs and snuggles to our seniors. One of our kitties, who is very shy and skittish will snuggle up on her lap for lovins. We now have 2 active, young pups who also love her. She takes our energetic pups for their morning walkies and dotes on them. She is a great communicator and sends us pictures and updates of our pets. She is not only loving to animals but is reliable and trustworthyy. I would highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for a loving, responsible pet sitter.

At this time I am only house and pet sitting at client's homes. Most of my clients prefer to have their pets remain at their homes. I follow their feeding schedule and enjoy spending time loving on them and going for walks.

Information Joy F. would like to know about your pet

I have several request from clients regarding the care of their pets. Their feeding schedule and if any supplements or medications are needed to be administered. Walking schedule, how far dog normally walks, how many times a day and if there are any hazards on walking route. Sleeping schedule and location of pets normal sleeping spot. How they get along with other animals too.

A typical day

Walking dogs is a favorite pastime of mine. I like playing fetch and chase with dogs. I enjoy grooming animals and loving on them. If your dog enjoys swimming, I do too.
