Home fulltime, love walks/runs

Pet care experience

I was raised with dogs and am a full-time dog lover. I love being active and spending time with my pup outdoors. I am in between jobs right now so your pup will have the full time attention they deserve. My priority is making sure you feel safe leaving your dog in my care and knowing that it’s not just a vacation for you, but for your pup as well! I have years of experience dogsitting for puppies as well as seniors who need medications. Your pet will always get at least one walk per day for at least 30-45 minutes. My apartment is a townhome so there is space to play indoors as well! I am available seven days a week and any time.

Where to begin???? I’m EXTREMELY picky with who watches my dog or who I leave her with. Joy is such a God-sent. She’s incredible with all animals, is so knowledgeable about animal training and puppy training and overall health of animals. Besides all that, she’s extremely flexible and super accommodating and your pup will have the best time ever with her GSP, Konza, who is the sweetest girl ever!!!! I can’t say enough good things about Joy. So trustworthy and professional and just an all around above and beyond kind of person. You and your pup will both be very happy! ;)

Joy is disciplined, loving and determined to give the best care to any animal she is responsible for. She and her husband own a dog who is cared well for and given ample park play-time! She is reliable and will follow any directions given to care for a client.

Joy is such a blessing to us and our furbabies! Not only is she reliable and trustworthy, she truly loves our dogs. We have 4 and they range in size from a doberman to a chihuahua. Even our tiniest one warmed to her right away and now Joy carries her around like a baby in her arms! Joy also takes care of their special needs - meds for one and a special diet for another. Joy is a responsible dog-owner herself and takes the necessary precautions to be sure our dogs are secure in our absence. We highly recommend her - and if our pups could type, they would too!

Information Joy S. would like to know about your pet

My biggest concern is that your dog is safe and friendly with people and other dogs. Up-to-date on shots, non-aggressive. I have one dog at home who loves having play dates, so your dog getting along with others is mandatory.

A typical day

There is a trail near my complex for on-leash exploring and walking. Practicing commands and tricks for treats, and of course cuddling is a must.
