I love caring for cute 🐶🐱s.

Pet care experience

Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take good care of their pets and were never disappointed and could always depend on me. They gladly referred me to others for their pet sitting and house sitting needs.

In my first interview with Joy she seemed insistent to speak of a product she has and wanted me to know about it. I had her over for that second visit because of how much she talked in the first one. Joy is a lovely girl and I was more impressed the second time so I hired her. She had 2 nights with my dog. The second night she had a presentation to make, getting there at 5 and back after 10pm. I’d asked her to feed my dog between 5 or 5:30 and he wasn’t fed til she returned. Once I addressed this to her and that I knew when she actually left on the last day, she was very defensive telling me “I don’t want to feel ill of you” and “I don’t want to argue the past’’ She could’ve fed my pup before she left but didnt. I also had said my pup could be left for 2-3 hours and she was gone over 5 hours.

Joy went above and beyond while looking after Kitty for two weeks. She made sure my cat was comfortable, healthy and loved. Great communication with lots of pictures and laughter. Joy has a very interesting way of life, avid about health, care and nutrition.

Joy is a great dog sitter and our older shih tzu and dachshund enjoyed their stay. She gave them lots of love and they were happy and healthy when we picked them up.

Joy was absolutely amazing!! She took care of my dog like he was her own. They went to the farmers market and on walks and had movie nights! I’m already trying to book with her again! Having someone care for your dog like you do is just priceless!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard with plenty of room for the pets to run around and there's a doggy door that they are able to come and go as they like. Depending on their temperament I am completely fine and welcome cuddles on the bed/couch. They will most likely be a part of the family meaning having free roam of the house and able to relax or follow me around the house. I am a teacher and will be gone during the day but am around in the early morning and evenings

Information Joy R. would like to know about your pet

I would appreciate owner provides me info regarding the pets character, mundane routines with owner at his house, if the pet is on medication, any allergies, a contact for personal vet, etc.

A typical day

Play with your pet, welcome cuddles, walk them in my neighborhood, visit parks around town, and depending on dog's fitness I may try to take them on a hike. I confirm with the owner for any questionable activities such as walking, taking the pet to the park/hiking, or car rides.

Availability

Currently do not have any kids of my own. I have always enjoyed playing with pets of all kinds. I do however have a Siamese cat that I recently adopted. It was not planned but since then he been introduced to all kinds of pets and gets along with them really well. I have had no concern at all. He is non-aggressive, kind, and intelligent. He knows when he needs to stay back and when it is safe to be friendly. When he gets the green light from the other cats and dogs, he'll go for a cuddle real quick. He tends to be an outdoor cat these days but comes in for the night to sleep.
