Joyce can host
Availability
I am retired now so can set my own schedule. I am home most of the time but do typically leave the house for an hour or so to exercise each day. When I'm pet sitting, your special pet will be my top priority and I will be able to work my schedule around their needs and your expectations.

About Joyce B.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large, fully fenced, private back yard. I do not require that your pet be crate trained as my dog (she passed away in 2024) was never crate trained. I'm ok with you simply bringing over their dog bed, but if they sleep in a crate, that's fine too. My home's environment is very safe and offers room to roam when they're outside. The one fence line that has a gap between the bottom of the fence and the ground has been covered with wire mesh so even a small dog cannot get out. As a retired person, I'm able to walk your dog as many times / day as you request. As mentioned above, they'll also be free to roam the backyard and I will be with them during that time.

Information Joyce B. would like to know about your pet
I would appreciate knowing about any personality issues or quirks your dog may have and whether or not they enjoy coming into contact with other dogs while on a walk. Of course, any medical issues or physical limitations must be clearly explained so I can accomodate your pets needs.
A typical day
As a retired person, I'm able to walk your dog at least a couple of times a day, depending upon your preferences. I'm also able to play fetch/catch in my large and secure backyard. You tell me what your dog enjoys, and I will find a way to make it happen.

Your dog will love my backyard :-)!
Pet care experience
I admit that I'm new to Rover.com but I cared for my beloved Chloe (60 lb dog) for 16 years and also dog sat for my best friend when she went out of town. Safety is incredibly important to me and I have a fully fenced, private back yard that would love to host your canine family member.
Reviews
Joyce was wonderful with Penny and took great care to follow her routine and meet her needs. She was easy to work with, asked thoughtful questions, and made us feel confident that Penny was in great hands. Before the stay, Joyce allowed us over for a meet and greet, and we were impressed by her clean home and spacious yard for Penny to play in. We're so grateful for the excellent care she gave our precious pup and can't wait for Penny to stay with Joyce again!
Joyce is thoughtful and genuinely cares about Mocha’s interests and well-being. Mocha had a blast playing in Joyce’s yard!
Joyce is amazing. Her home is ideal. Can’t wait to use her again!! Ernie loves u!
Joyce watched our terrier mix, Henry, for two weeks while we went on a cruise. She has a great fenced backyard with lots of birds and the occasional squirrel to keep things interesting. She was so kind and considerate and attentive to Henry and to us. She babied him big time and adhered to our requested walk schedule and food schedule. He came home happy and healthy and calm. We are looking forward to using her services again.
