Dog lover excited to meet your pup!

Pet care experience

I am a current fourth year medical student with a lot of free time now that I'm about to graduate! I love dogs and and am excited to meet your dog and offer cuddles, belly rubs, and long walks. I lived with a dog in college and helped with with walking, feeding, and playing. I currently dog sit my friends dogs at least once a week (both a 70lb golden retriever and 10lb poodle mix). I understand the responsibility and attentiveness required to care for animals and you can ensure that your dog will be in good hands with me. I am offering my help because it brings me so much joy to be around dogs and I want to make this experience as easy as possible for you!

Joyce is an exceptional person who truly cares for the well-being of animals. She has demonstrated a strong dedication to ensuring that pets in her care receive the highest level of love and attention possible. Joyce has an innate ability to connect with animals and understand their needs, making her an ideal caregiver for pets of all kinds. She is patient, compassionate, and always goes above and beyond to make sure that every pet under her care is happy and healthy. Overall, I would highly recommend Joyce as a pet caregiver. She is a wonderful person who truly cares for animals and has the skills, experience, and dedication needed to provide exceptional care for any pet.

Joyce is easily my dogs favorite person. He is a grumpy Shiba Inu named Logan, and naturally very picky about the people he likes, but he has always loved Joyce. All this is to say that Joyce has a natural connection with dogs that even the grumpiest dogs cannot withstand. Apart from being the reason my dog wakes up in the morning, Joyce is also a genuinely loving and caring person. She has never encountered a dog that she didn’t like, and even sends me pictures of dogs that she meets when she is out running errands. Additionally, Joyce is incredibly intelligent and detail oriented. You would be hard-pressed to find a more trustworthy person to rely on for the care of your four-legged BFF. She has the best memory of anyone I have ever met and therefore, she will always remember to lock your door and will remember all of the detailed instructions you leave for the care of your pet. Joyce is a homebody at heart, so your pet will never be lonely. They will most likely spend their time together cuddling on the couch under a blanket while watching reality TV and eating healthy snacks. I wholeheartedly recommend Joyce for anyone who is looking for pet care. She is guaranteed to bring just as much love and happiness into your pet’s life as they bring into yours!

Joyce has been my roommate for four years and has helped me take care of my Cavachon doggo Keke throughout that time. Keke loves her! They have gone on several walks together. Joyce is very responsible and always kind to Keke. Would highly recommend her!

I have a 1 year old golden retriever who Joyce has taken care of on multiple occasions. My dog is always overwhelmed with excitement to see her and it's clear Joyce takes incredible care of her. Any dog would be lucky to spend some time with this amazing human!

I live in a gated apartment complex with lots of free grass for roaming. I also live within walking distance to Forest Park. My apartment has a large living room for roaming and playing and there is great natural light for napping in the sun!
