Highlights
Pet care experience
My home is their home.
I love dogs of all kinds. I’m the person that stops you on the street to say hi to your pet. Our dog recently passed so looking to care for yours.

Ratings and reviews
Joy and Larry take such good care of Sadie and treat her just like their own dog. Joy sends photos and updates. I would highly recommend.
Joy and her husband were amazing. They sent us updates and photos of our dog, they followed all the instructions perfectly (our dog is very high maintenance). Their house was clean and pet friendly. Even during the meet and greet, they took him for a walk to ensure he’s a good fit and we hadn’t even booked with them!! They were very easy to communicate with and took great care of our dog. We will 100% rebook with them (if they aren’t already fully booked because they’re awesome😂)
Our Labrador had a wonderful stay with Joy. He already misses her. Thank you, Joy, for taking such good care our boy.
I highly recommend Joy for your pet-care needs! I have known her for over 25 years, and she is a trustworthy, patient, and deeply committed dog lover. Joy is exceptionally reliable and even steps in to care for pets when owners are away on holiday or in hospice palliative care.She recently watched my 14-week-old puppy, Dax, while I was out of town, and gave me complete peace of mind (even though I had major separation anxiety!). Joy respects every dog's individual boundaries and personality. Plus, because she is so active, your pet will get plenty of exercise, fun outdoor exploration, and socialization. Joy is truly a gem and your dog will be in the best possible hands!
I've had the pleasure of watching my mum care for dogs my entire life, and I honestly can't think of anyone I'd trust more with a pet. She's owned and loved dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. She's the first person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their dogs because they know they'll be treated like one of her own. Whether it's long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, she goes above and beyond. She's incredibly patient, reliable and has a natural way with animals. Dogs seem to gravitate towards her, and it's easy to see why. If you're looking for someone who will genuinely care for your dog as if they were family, I couldn't recommend Joy more.
I am happy to recommend Joy as a pet sitter. She is reliable, patient and has always shown her own pets a great deal of love and caring. Joy is trustworthy and dependable and I would have complete confidence leaving my pet in her care .

Schedule
I’m retired so I have plenty of time to care for your dog. I also have a fenced yard and am walking distance to a dog park.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and a dog park close by. No other dogs on-site right now. This is a very dog friendly neighborhood with lots of places to walk.
A typical day
We have a large dog friendly park close by where we can play fetch. Lots of walks where we can explore the many nearby ravines.
