Safety, trust & environment

I have a two acre yard, but at the moment it is unfenced. I am working on building a large dog play pen, but at the moment provide a safe monitored outside time with the use of an indestructible long line. I live by the ocean and have beach access, as well as many local hiking trails! The only other dog in the household is my thirteen year old black lab. She does great with other dogs, however I can provide your pup with his/her separate quiet space.

Information Joyelle W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, or quirky behaviors ahead of time! I am happy to cater to your pets needs, just would appreciate a heads up before.

A typical day

On any given day, I will spend quality time loving and exercising your dog. I'll take him/her to the beach and on dog friendly hiking trails. I'll provide enrichment activities during downtime and add some in obedience training if it would be beneficial to the dog and the owner!

Premium Experienced Dog Care

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs since age nine. I have gained experience working with multiple dog breeds through various volunteer and employment opportunities. I spent 10 plus years volunteering at various local dog rescues, assisted with managing the care of fourteen huskies on a local sled dog ranch, and have experience training service dogs through four different organizations. I am currently in a college program for a B.S in Animal Care and Behavior through Husson University, as well as a online certificate program to become a dog trainer. I love socializing puppies and helping them learn better manners. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks and hikes. I can provide your dog with a safe and loving environment and make sure they have the best positive experiences. Through my previous animal experiences, I can cater to dogs and cats with specialized diets, and provide medical care as needed. I also have knowledge working with dogs with dog reactivity and mobility issues.

Joyelle is a caring, dependable, and dedicated dogsitter. My very opinionated and sensitive dog loved her from day 1, even though it usually takes much longer for her to warm up to strangers. Joyelle is the best dogsitter I have ever hired.

Joyelle was a great pup sitter. She sent lots of pics, kept the dogs happy, the house clean and followed all of our instructions. Highly recommend.
