Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Lover 🐹🐱🐶
• I have over 15 years of experience caring for pets, with most of my hands on experience being with cats. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own pets, helped family and friends with their pets, and also fostered cats. This has helped me understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. • I’m especially familiar with cats and their needs, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and try to make them feel secure and comfortable in my care. If needed, I can also help with basic care and grooming, as long as the cat feels comfortable and not stressed. • For boarding, I have a dedicated spare room in my home that is completely reserved for visiting cats, so they can have their own quiet and comfortable space. I only accept one boarding family at a time and do not board other cats together, which helps create a more peaceful and low stress stay. Owners are welcome to bring their cat’s favorite toys, cat tree, litter box, or other familiar items to help them feel more at home. • My goal is always to provide gentle, attentive care and make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owner is away.

Ratings and reviews
Joyce took care of my cat Mochi, while I was traveling and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She has over 10 years of experience caring for cats and it really shows. She was incredibly patient, attentive, and made sure Mochi was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell she genuinely cared about Mochi and treated her like her own. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves cats, I highly recommend Joyce. I would absolutely trust her to care for Mochi again.
I’ve had Joyce help with pet care on several occasions, and she has a real gift with cats especially, she’s incredibly attentive and patient, and it shows in how comfortable the cats are around her. She takes the time to understand each pet’s personality and routine, and her updates always include detailed, thoughtful photos that put owners at ease. Her genuine love for animals combined with her meticulous care makes her someone I’d trust without hesitation. I’m happy to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter, especially cat parents.
I highly recommend Joyce as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, caring, and truly loves animals. I’ve seen how patient and attentive she is with pets, and she always makes sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Anyone would be lucky to have Joyce look after their pets.

Schedule
My schedule is flexible, and I can make time throughout the week for pet care. I’m available for drop in visits, feeding, refreshing water, playtime, and giving pets calm companionship and attention. I can adjust to each pet’s routine and needs as much as possible, whether they prefer interaction, quiet company, or a little extra patience. I always try to be reliable, responsive, and consistent so your cat can feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in the environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep the space clean and secure, and pay close attention to each cat’s behavior, mood, and needs. I’m patient and gentle, especially with shy, sensitive, or older pets, and I treat them with the same care and respect as my own.

A typical day
A typical visit includes feeding, refreshing water and spending quality time with your pets. I’m happy to play with them, give them space if they prefer, and make sure they feel calm, comfortable, and cared for. I also pay attention to their mood, behavior, and routine so they feel safe while you’re away.
