Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is maintaining the routines, structure, and environment they’re already comfortable with. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and household preferences to ensure consistency and minimize stress. I take a calm, gentle approach so pets feel safe and secure, while also treating your home with the same respect and care I would my own.

Information Joy F. would like to know about your pet

I love learning the details about each pet so I can care for them the way you do. Please share anything you think is helpful like daily routines, feeding instructions, personality quirks, training cues, medications, favorite toys, or things that make them anxious. Even small details help me make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

A typical day

I like to learn about each pet’s usual routine and the activities they enjoy most, then keep that routine consistent while they’re with me. Whether that’s walks, playtime, toys, or just relaxing and getting cuddles, I try to make sure they feel comfortable and have fun in ways they’re already familiar with.

Calm, Attentive & Reliable Pet Care

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is the calm, attentive presence I bring when caring for animals. I’m naturally patient, observant, and reliable, which helps pets feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed in my care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I genuinely enjoy adapting to what makes them feel most secure. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, sensitive, or a little anxious, my goal is always to provide steady, consistent, and stress-free care while you’re away.

Joy took exceptionally good care of our 2 cats for nearly a week while we were out of town. She won over our very shy kitty with consistent kindness and her favorite treats. She didn't just feed and clean their litter boxes, she interacted with them, and kept them company. I will definitely call on her for our next out of town trip!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
