Joy is a very caring dog lover who is trustworthy and real. She has raised many breeds and is always lovingly embraced. I would trust all of my dogs to her care.

I highly recommend Joy to take excellent care of your pets while you are away. She has taken care of my dogs in the past and they have come home well fed, happy and always glad to visit her again. I’ve found her to be very dependable.

Joy has the wisdom and kindness of a zen master. She is in tune with our planet and all of its creatures. She knows they are our real spirit guides. Alice G. trainer of dogs (but they really train me)

Joy has a special connection to all living things whether plants, humans, or animals. She is wise, gentle, and capable. As a retired therapist and teacher with many credentials and degrees, she has chosen in retirement to continue to serve as a loving caretaker with a focus on animals. She is my treasured friend and will be yours and your pet's as well. Five stars (that is, the max) for any job she assumes.

Information Joy R. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know what are his/her favorite things to do and what to avoid. I’d also like to know any specific foods or behaviors I should be aware of in order to have a great experience together.

A typical day

On walks dogs usually like to get in all the great smells they encounter. They often like to meet and greet other dogs on the walk. Some times we play fetch when that’s a fun activity. Rewards and hide and seek are part of the outing.
