Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet lover who loves with care
I have taken care of dogs since i was 10, and have lived with cats since college. I’m an animal lover to my core, and really active so I’m more than happy to have your dog join me on my daily walks. I’m mindful to training and can reinforce anything you’d need. I’m patient and love working with younger or older pets!

Ratings and reviews
Joy was such an amazing sitter for our dog Fern! This was the first time we left her and Joy made us feel so much better knowing she was in good hands. She sent multiple photo and video updates, was willing to reinforce training and asked questions about her care. It’s clear she’s very comfortable with dogs and they love her too!

Very responsive and sent lots of photos during my pups boarding, great sitter!

Joy was a stellar host. She took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand. She asked thoughtful questions about dog temperament, preferences, and routine. Hand off was smooth when it came for Edison’s vacation. Edison had a great time, they had long walks, adventures to pick up the neighborhood's treats (his love language). Joy embraced Edison’s quirks and they bonded. Thanks!
Joy took great care of my cat for a few nights in her beautiful home! Sent photos, videos, and updates daily. My cat felt right at home with her.

Joy was very friendly, professional communicative and flexible in our dog sitting. She really enjoyed being with my dog and took great care of him!

Joy was easy to work with and a perfect sitter for my dog.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a deep love for animals, not just cats and dogs. My lofted apartment has plenty of space for cats to roam and has multiple dog parks nearby, as well as walking routes by the bay.
A typical day
I always aim to have the dogs tired at the end of a day of play, and quiet peace when it’s time to turn in for bed. There’s always at least 2 trips to the dog park. With cats, I’ll regularly play with them with their favorite toy and let them have plenty of cat naps in the sun spots of my apartment
