I highly recommend Joy for any role involving animal care or pet sitting. Joy is an exceptional animal advocate whose deep love for animals is matched by her extensive hands-on experience. Joy is experienced at confidently caring for cats, dogs, cattle, horses, lizards and more. She is highly adept at administering medications and closely monitoring animals for any signs of illness or distress. Her approach to care is both competent and intuitive—animals naturally bond with her, and she truly has a unique gift for handling them. Finding someone you can trust on your property and with your animals can be incredibly difficult today. Joy is a safe, reliable and responsible. She treats every animal under her supervision as if they were her own. Additionally, she will proactively stays in touch with owners, providing consistent updates to offer complete peace of mind. She will be a tremendous asset to anyone looking for premium care for their animals and property.

Joy was a life saver watching my animals! She knows more about caring for animals than most people! She has been around animals all her life. She also has her own little farm from horses, min cows to cats, dogs and birds. She has a field of knowledge from veterinary science degree. She watches your animals like she would her own. She goes beyond and above. She loves animals and her animals know that. Anyone would be lucky to have her watch your animals from feeding, walking to administrating medication if needed. You would be lucky to have her watch your animals but more so have her as a friend for life. Tasha

Joy will treat your dog like family and send you pictures and videos so you have peace of mind and see how much fun your dog is having.

I'm happy to recommend Joy as a pet sitter. I've known her for years, and she is one of the most caring animal people I know. She has a degree in veterinary medicine and runs her own baby animal farm, so she already looks after a lot of animals every day and knows how to handle feeding, medicine, and any health worries that come up. More than that, she truly loves animals. She treats every pet like part of her own family, and they can tell. If I were going out of town, I would trust Joy with my pets without a second thought, and have!
