Safety, trust & environment

At work they will be in a room or cage according to their size but they get to go out at least 3 times a day while I do my work shift. We have a yard in the animal hospital and they get to run and play. Once I’m home I have a semi fenced yard and they get to play and run some more under supervision. I have cats in my home so during the night the doggies will have to sleep in a crate for safety reasons.

Information Joyce E. would like to know about your pet

I’ll like to know about your pets behavior especially with other dogs and cats since I have cats and they will be interacting with them. Other information like any medical treatments, their daily routine or any special care your dog needs can also be discussed.

A typical day

Pets will be most of the times at work with me. If they are friendly with other dogs they will get to have play dates. On my days off dogs will go to the parks if that’s okay with owners, to play and have fun. Any other activities I have to do and is safe to bring the dog I’ll be taking them with me. For example shopping or visiting family. I’ll be taking them with me and they will get to enjoy car rides!

Professional and Caring Pet Sitter!

Pet care experience

Since a very young age taking care of animals have been a passion of mine. Always trying to rescue and adopt all the doggies and kitties off the streets and helping them with anything I could. Now I’m a veterinary nurse. I currently work in an animal hospital and I take care and treat pets on a daily basis. I can handle pets of various sizes and temperaments, is all about making them feel safe and comfortable. Making sure they get the respect love and care they deserve is my priority. I’m very passionate about pets and love them and care for them as if they were my own.

Joyce accepted my last minute request for house sitting on New Years, and she was great with the pets and followed all instructions thoroughly. We would love to have her again!

Joyce was an absolute pleasure to stay at our house and take care of our pup! She was great at communication, taking pictures, and loving our sweet dog. We will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend.

Joyce is a great choice to look after your pets. After working with her at the same veterinary hospital, she has clearly shown she is talented in animal care and has always shown a deep love towards all the animals in her care. She is very trustworthy and responsible so she would be a great choice to look after anyone’s pet.
