House Visits for your Pets

Pet care experience

I love animals and have had a dog and/or a cat continuously ever since I can remember! Some call me a cat whisperer because I can get almost any kitty to warm up 😺

Joy is the best. My cats love her and she writes the best stories to tell me about their time together.

Joy was great! Very attentive to my cat & gave daily check-ins. I'm sure I'll be booking her again!!!

My cats love Joy! My scaredy cat always comes out of hiding for her. She also leaves my place cleaner than I do. I’m so grateful to have found someone like Joy!

Safety, trust & environment

Walking, feeding, refreshing water and cleaning up after - all basic tasks with be included in the visit, plus time for playing! I work with the pet's temperament - some are shy so I give them time to warm up, while others want lots of pets and playing right away.

Information Joy S. would like to know about your pet

I will ask questions and take time to get to know your pets temperament, their routine and preferences, and their training level. . . .

A typical day

If your neighborhood is walkable, I will ask about their favorite route for walks and also let your pet show me around during our walk. Of course lots of time for sniffs during the walk!

I work normal business hours in DC, but am available early mornings, evenings and weekends for house visits and walks. I find it a refreshing break from the 9-5 routine to get to hang out with a new pet!
