Caring attentive pet sitter

I’ve grown-up surrounded by animals from family cats, dogs, sheep, horses, and hamsters. I have a 10 year-old shih tzu, who is very chill, and work from home and have a lot of availability.

This is Bruce’s second stay with Joy and she takes such good care of him! Sends notes and pictures and always keeps us up to date, She’s our first choice for a sitter for Bruce now!

Joy was so amazing with our Bruce. Lots of daily pictures and updates and even kept detailed notes so we knew how he was doing. Bruce seemed so relaxed and comfortable and can’t thank joy enough!

I highly recommend Joy to everyone! She is a highly considerate person and took the most amazing care of my dog, I could tell he was smitten with her immediately. She was also so kind and flexible when my schedule changed last minute for drop-off! You can’t ask for a better sitter!

Well speaking of Joy I must start by saying I’ve known Joy for many years.Joy has a dog of her own.Joy will be a wonderful person to take care of your dog on walks and playful times too.

I would highly recommend Ms Joy as a sitter and walker, because she is a dog owner herself for 10+ years. She goes above and beyond to show her love and affection not only for her own and other dogs. She also makes it feasible if she needs to/have to travel with her dog. We bonded as co-worker/friends over the love of dogs, discussion about dogs, and do’s and don’ts , especially shih tzu. I myself was once a Rover participant!
