Pet care experience
Retired Animal Lover
I’m retired and my little dog Gus (Chihuahua mix) and I need a job that I (finally) can love 💕. I’ve had ALL kinds of animals my whole life, and sad to say, but I like them more than most people.😬
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Would absolutely recommend. Joy was very caring and knowledgeable about animal behavior. She had everything they needed. Drop-off and pick-up was easy and went smoothly. Our dogs clearly got plenty of exercise and settled in well. Joy sent pictures and a video.
Greatful for Joy. She has a great way with our dog.
Joy was an amazing dog sitter and I never had to worry about my puppies while they were in her care. She has a wonderful home and outdoor space for dogs to run and lounge and sent pictures and videos of them playing and napping throughout their stay.
Our dog was a happy boy while staying at Joy’s where he was catered to!
You couldn’t have a better “home away from home” spot for your pet! Joy quickly figures out your pet’s personality/traits and goes above and beyond to make them comfortable and at ease in a new surrounding. This was our dog’s first stay with Joy - we’d definitely request Joy again!
Joy has become our go-to dog sitter. She loves Tommy up and keeps us updated on his stay at her house. She has a perfect fenced back yard for him to run around in. He’s always happy when we drop him off. He seems to have fun at Joy’s!

Schedule
I’m retired, so I’m here all the time. Occasionally I take an overnight road trip, but not often. I take my fur baby on long walks twice a day and there’s a doggy door to get into the fenced yard with plenty of squeaky toys.😁

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and a Chihuahua mix named Gus. He has a sweet disposition and loves everyone. I have beds/blankets everywhere but no crates. If you need me to use one, you’d have to bring it with you.😊
Pets

- I would appreciate a heads up if your fur baby is especially hyper or intense. My fur baby, Gus, needs a little time to warm up to the wild ones. He’ll be okay, one of his best buds has continuous “zoomies”!
