💕 A Few Fun Facts I love keeping you updated with lots of cute photos — just let me know if you’d prefer fewer! 📸🐾 Since I work full-time from home, I’m here all day to give your dog plenty of attention, love, and companionship — they’ll never feel alone or bored. I’m a morning meditation kind of person — your dog can join! I believe wagging tails shift the vibration of the planet. 🌍🐕😎

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and a beautiful park as seen in my pictures. I live in a closed community. Walks are always on-leash in safe, quiet areas, and I avoid overstimulation or crowded spaces. I tune in to each dog’s personality — giving extra reassurance to shy souls and extra play to the lively ones. 🐶✨

💛 Important to Know About Your Pup Before your dog stays with me, I love to know their unique rhythm and needs — every pup has their own energy signature! 🌿✨ Please share: Any health concerns, medications, or behaviors I should support with extra care 💊 Feeding schedule, favorite treats, or any dietary restrictions 🍽️ Energy level — are they a zen soul or a bundle of zoomies? 😄 Comfort items (blanket, toy) that help them feel at home 🧸 How they handle new people, sounds, or other dogs Routines that make them happiest — walks, naps, cuddles, or quiet time

A typical day

I love walking — it’s my favorite way to stay active and connect with nature. What better workout than sharing that joy with a happy pup? I’m the kind of person who truly engages with pets — singing, dancing, playing catch, and celebrating their energy. Your dog will always be surrounded by laughter, movement, and happy vibes. 😊

Peace Of Mind & Joy For Life

Pet care experience

Hi beautiful people! I believe every pup carries their own frequency of love and wisdom. 🐾💫 When your dog stays with me, they don’t just get walks and treats — they get presence and play. I combine mindfulness, gentle communication, and intuitive care to make sure your dog feels safe, seen, and celebrated (yes, even the shy ones open up here!). 🌿 What Makes My Care Different 🌀 Energy-Aware Environment: I create a calm, balanced atmosphere — think soft music, gentle vibes, and lots of positive affirmations (dogs love them too!). ☀️ Mindful Walks: Every walk is a mini adventure in connection — we pause to sniff flowers, listen to birds, and breathe together. 💛 Heart-Centered Communication: I listen to dogs — body language, emotion, and energy. Your pup’s comfort always comes first. 🐶 Customized TLC: Whether your dog is a bundle of zoomies or a quiet soul who loves cuddles, I tune in and match their rhythm. 🏡 My Home & Routine Your dog will enjoy a beautiful space, safe park to run in, and a whole lot of joyful attention. I send regular updates, videos & pictures.

Joy is wonderful. She sent me lots of pictures and kept me informed as to how Daisy was doing. I could tell she gave Daisy lots of love and attention. I would definitely use Joy again.

It was an amazing experience for us and our little Hope. We get to see tons of pictures and updates throughout her stay. Highly recommend Joy to everyone who wants a piece of mind knowing their little furry family is in great hands. Thank you Joy for taking care of our 13 year old Hope.

Joy was an absolute angel. Sent so many photos and videos of our little sweet boy and he had so much fun at her house. Made friends and couldn't thank her enough. Our first time using rover and we were pretty nervous but thanks to Joy we will be using it more often.
