Safety, trust & environment

My single-story home has a large, fenced yard where your dog can roam freely to play, take a sunbath, or chase butterflies. My 32 lb dog, Prema, will keep your dog company on daily walks and at home. The home has a doggie door, so your dog is free to roam in the house and outside. The doggie door is locked at night. Ideally, you would supply you dog’s favorite bed (although we have extras) a collar and leash, and preferred food with instructions on feeding timing, amount, etc. I want your pet to feel happy, safe, and have fun while here. 🦮

Information Joyce T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviors, or if they’re working on any specific training so I can help. Also, I like to have your vet’s info, understand feeding timing and amounts, as well as daily schedule. I’d also like to know if they are comfortable going for car rides for hiking adventures.

A typical day

I love to take the dogs for a couple of walks a day in the neighborhood. Depending on your dog’s proclivities, we can play fetch, play chase, and/or hang out and cuddle.

Loving Pet Mamá Here to Help

Pet care experience

As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, growing up with Labrador Retrievers and learning firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. Over the years, I’ve helped whelp litters, fostered rescue dogs (including one who became a beloved member of our family), and cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments. My home is peaceful and dog-friendly, shared with my sweet mixed-breed dog, Prema, and features a large, securely fenced yard for safe play and exploration. Daily walks, plenty of attention, and a calm, nurturing environment ensure that every dog in my care feels comfortable, loved, and right at home.

Fritz had a great time! Joyce was flexible with us being on vacation and not knowing exactly when we'd be dropping off/picking up.

My fur ladies had an absolute blast at their overnight stay! The backyard area had so much room to roam. Joyce offered great tips to help advance the little Ninas manners- especially at bedtime. Great home environment with a chill vibe.
