Cat owner, dog lover

Pet care experience

While I’ve had cats most of my life, I’ve loved many dogs. I’ve recently sat for my friend’s 2 year old German Shorthaired Pointer and previously her Scottie dog mix. The GSP is very hyper and needy but so loving so it was a rewarding challenge. The Scottie dog was much older and on medications so he was needy in a different way. I had to give him pills and clean up many messes. So I have experience with a array of dogs.

Joy was great. It’s the first time she took care of our dog. Joy was very attentive to our specific instructions and our dog had a very positive experience.

Joy was a Joy to work with. Excellent communication so I could have peace of mind while I was away.

Joy is wonderful! Great with communication, treats dogs well, even helped with a personal matter at home last second while I was at work and could not address it. Would give more than 5 stars.

Joy is excellent with all animals. She loved and cared for my dog while we were on a 9 day trip. She is trustworthy to stay at my home and walked Ruger and sent us pictures of all the fun and love he was having. I highly recommend Joy to any family.

I did not include in home pet care since I have a cat at home but could potentially make an exception depending on the cat/dog if they got along. I do have a fenced in backyard. I am an upstanding, trustworthy citizen and would take great care of a clients home.

Information Joy M. would like to know about your pet

I’m not sure what to put here. Feels like you know better about what your dog needs or likes? Do they hate having ears touched? Get along with other animals?

A typical day

We could take walks, play fetch, cuddles and belly scratches -what more could a dog want? Is there a park nearby? Kitties? Mine loves this dancer toy I could bring.

I am currently working part-time from home after previously working a 9-5 in marketing so I have a lot of time available and looking to make some extra money. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, with only a few commitments, mostly in the evening.
