All creatures great and small......
Pet care experience
Your pets will be in good hands. I was a 4-H kid and grew up on a mini-farm in the Northern California redwoods. We raised a variety of animals for show and as family pets. I cared for many of the neighbor's pets as well including dogs, cats, horses, sheep, pigs, bunny rabbits, and the occasional goldfish! I am a bit of a dog-whisperer too and can get even the most unruly of beasts to settle down. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks or hikes and have experience caring for puppies and senior dogs as well. I am more than just an animal lover, I'm reliable and in tune with your pet's needs, and show every pet the same level of care that they get from you. Before my stay, I will verify that your pet's care instructions are understood including current vet information, an emergency contact who can make decisions for your pet while you are away, and other important care information, such as feeding instructions, potty breaks, methods used to reward or correct behavior, and exercise schedule.
Reviews
We couldn’t be happier that we boarded Phoebe with Joy. Joy went of her way to send multiple videos and pictures of Phoebe every day of her stay. She went above and beyond to accommodate our special requests to have Phoebe part of our wedding day and coordinated her schedule around that. Phoebe didn’t want to leave Joy when we came and picked her up!! We absolutely recommend Joy and can’t thank her enough for taking care of our special pup!
Joy took great care of my little pup while I was at the mountain for the day. Her communication was great and she was very accommodative with drop-off and pick-up. Thank you, Joy!
Joy was great! She made sure our dog had the fun he needed. Great communication!
Our dog had a great time with Joy and her other dogs. She was easy to work with and took the dogs for long walks. I highly recommend her should you need care for your dogs.

Safety, trust & environment
I am very attentive to your pet's needs and will do my best to keep them happy and healthy. Most dogs have little behavior quirks, like carrying their food bowls around before dinner time, separation anxiety, or barking at the UPS driver. The more I can learn about their behaviors, the easier it will be for me to prepare for them. During my stay or visit, you can expect a daily photo or video update so you can be assured that your pet is staying active and having fun! In the rare event that medical attention is needed, I am familiar with the local veterinarians and can get help quickly (I am very resourceful). I adhere to any special dietary needs your pets may have and can administer meds as needed (including shots). If staying in your home, I am very respectful of your space and you will come home to a clean and tidy environment (leave no trace).

Information Joy T. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any special needs, just let me know so that I can be ready to accommodate them. The more detailed information you provide, that happier your pet will be while you are away. If there are any known triggers that can be avoided during their care, please let me know (i.e. bigger dogs, smaller dogs, certain breeds, fireworks, etc.). If your pet has been trained with specific commands, it is helpful to know what those are for consistency. Thank you!
A typical day
I can accommodate playtime in the park, hikes, car rides, and active games of fetch or frisbee. Also, I often do doggy daycare with multiple dogs on our family property which has a small creek and acres of green grass for free range play. Your dogs will come home tired and happy!

Availability
Animals thrive with a daily routine, and the flexibility of my schedule allows me to feed, walk, and play with your pet on their schedule. No more long days spent in a crate or kennel waiting for someone to show up. Please book as far in advance as you can so that I can provide the best service possible while juggling requests from many families.
