I am full time stay at home mom. My kiddos go to preschool a few afternoons a week. Outside of school pick up and drop off, my schedule is pretty open and flexible. For the most part, my kiddos will be tagging along with me. They are very excited to participate in the caring for animals!

Safety, trust & environment

I love solo walks if that’s what your dog prefers. I can also take doggies to the dog park if they need more socializing and play

Information Joy S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I will be brining my kids so I would not take a risk with any dogs that have aggression issues or don’t do well with kids.

A typical day

I am happy to do what you prefer. I can take your dog for a walk around your neighborhood or off on trails. I can take your dog to the dog park if you want!

Love my babies & fur babies too!

Pet care experience

I am a full time stay at home mom to two young kids. Before I had my babies, my fur babies had always been my life! My first job was at a local pet store at 14. I wasn’t allowed to have a dog so I figured the job would let me spend time with animals - I had been an animal lover my whole life! I volunteered at the humane society and got an opportunity to spend more time with dogs. When I was 16 my parents finally let me get a dog but I was solely responsible for him. I was in charge of feeding, waking and caring for him. When I was 20 I got my cat Hemingway and he was a part of my life for 18 years 😻He passed in 2022 and it took me a few years to feel ready to get another kitty. In 2024, we adopted Baby and he’s been an important part of our family ever since!

Joy was wonderful and very caring with Simon and my home! She coaxed her way into his little inner circle of friends, amazing!
