What can I say? I LOVE animals!
Pet care experience
I have been around a wide array of lovable pets including dogs, cats. hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards,rabbits, and fish. I grew up raising cats for cat shows! I learned about the immense connection with pets in my childhood. Pets make us feel happy, secure, and loved. Animals also teach us to have an awareness of our surroundings. I enjoy spending time with animals, developing a connection, and having an awareness for the primary needs of the pet: food, safety, warmth, love, belonging, and of course, playtime! I feel at home outdoors: so long walks, frisbee throws, or simply sitting in the sun with your pet would be enjoyable. Pets bring us so much joy. I am committed to ensuring your pet is like my second family.
Reviews
Joyce was great with our cat who is extremely shy. She took all our advice and was very patient. Thanks to her we could enjoy our vacation even more!
Joyce did a wonderful job with my cat! She followed all my instructions and sent pictures every day. I especially loved that she was able to brush my cat at each visit because I know my cat doesn't like being brushed but she needs it with her long fur. Very professional and clearly loves animals, I'd highly recommend Joyce to anyone.
Our cats were in great hands with Joyce! She gave us regular updates, and we found the cats to be happy and healthy when we returned. We'd be glad to have her sit for a them again.
Joyce was incredibly communicative and wonderful. I knew Ink was in great hands. Would 100% rebook with her

Skills
Information Joyce S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know their likes/dislikes, triggers for anxious behaviors, any chronic illnesses, any allergies/chronic scratching, active or as needed medications, normal routine, night-time routine, feeding schedule, behavior around other dogs, favorite toys, and of course, their favorite treats!
A typical day
Dogs enjoy walks to discover and explore new sounds and sights. We can go for walks wherever the dog can use their senses. Fun activities are simple: a nice belly rub, a scratch behind the ears, bathing in the sun, throwing their favorite ball, or maybe just getting down to their level to let them know they are loved!
