Will love your animals as my own

I’ve dogsat for friends and family for 6+ years and have used Trusted Housesitters and local groups to dog sit, cat sit, and house sit, anywhere from a few days to 3 months at a time. I’ve also fostered dogs long term. I would love to have my own pet but can’t with my current lifestyle, so I’d love to hang out with your animals :)

Where to start?! Joyce was an amazing sitter. She took great care of our boy. So attentive, kept us updated on any changes or issues. We are really excited we found her. We hope to use her again.

Glad to have found Joyce. She was really good to my two dogs and very responsive while I was away. Definitely recommend!

Joyce spent 4 nights house and dog sitting. Everything was in perfect order when I got home. Pups seemed happy and content, house tidy and picked up. Thank you!!

Safety, trust & environment

Animals are welcome in my house with fenced yard, but I’m also happy to stay at your house and take care of the house and any plants if needed.

A typical day

I enjoy going on walks in the early morning or evenings, hikes, or going to the dog park. I typically work remotely so I’ll take frequent work breaks to play with the dogs, go outside with them, and give them pets and snuggles.
