Pet care experience

Kind, caring, reliable professional

I am a life-long animal lover and have always had several pets in my life at any given time. I have often cared for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family - from cats and dogs to chickens to reptiles - not to mention the occasional stray that has come home with me while their family was located. I am experienced with tasks from feeding to bathing to administering medications.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I believe that maintaining a regular schedule of care for your pets is the most beneficial to their comfort and well-being. Therefore, I focus on following the schedule of feedings, medications, walks, and playtime that you lay out for me. I also place high importance on treating your home and pets as I would my own.

House Sitting • Jun 01, 2026

We had an excellent experience with our house sitter. They were reliable, communicative, and took great care of both our home and pets while we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind throughout the stay. Our pets were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when we returned, and our home was left clean and in great condition. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.

Ms. Joyce has been a blessing for us. We practically have a mini zoo so we're always worried when we need to go out of town. Ms. Joyce has taken great care of all of our animals over the years and we are thankful. I would highly recommend.

Schedule

I teach at the college level and have summers off. I love my time off but like the idea of pet care to stay busy and active. My summer schedule is wide open and ready to fill with walks, feedings, playtime, and whatever else your pets may need.
