Pet care experience

Lifelong Pet Lover

Hi! I’m Jo, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up in a pet-loving home surrounded by animals and have been the proud parent of my own cat for over 3 years. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. That’s why I always provide pet care that’s not only reliable and professional - but warm, attentive, and tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether your dog loves long walks or your cat just needs a calm presence, I’m here to offer a safe, happy environment while you’re away. I have an academic background in both Communication and Biological Sciences, which has given me a deeper understanding of animal behavior, health, and the importance of clear, compassionate communication with pet parents. Whether it’s noticing subtle changes in a pet’s mood or making sure pet parents feel informed and reassured, I bring both scientific understanding and emotional awareness to every booking. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, litter and potty breaks, administering basic medications, and keeping you updated with photos and messages. Your pet’s well-being and comfort are my top priority. Let’s set up a meet & greet - I’d love to get to know you and your furry baby!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting - no in-home boarding. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and respect. My experience working in private home care has taught me how to navigate someone’s space with professionalism, confidentiality, and care. I treat your home the same way I treat your pet - with mindfulness and attention to detail. I always follow instructions closely, maintain a calm environment, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for in their familiar space. I also make a point to keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

I’ve watched Jolie with animals enough times to know she’s a total pet whisperer. She has a cat of her own, Taro, and the way she cares for him with so much love and patience, says a lot about how deeply she connects with animals. Whenever I have dogs over for boarding through Rover, she’s right there getting to know them, and it takes no time at all for them to start following her around like she’s their best friend. It doesn’t matter the breed or size—dogs and cats just seem to love her. She’s calm, kind, and always tuned in to what the animal needs. If you’re looking for someone who’ll treat your pet like family, Jolie’s the one. I can’t recommend her enough.

Schedule

I work as a care aide at a hospital, but my position is casual, which means I have the flexibility to build my own schedule. I only accept bookings on my days off, so when I’m with your pet, they’ll have my full attention. On my free days, I genuinely enjoy spending quiet time at home with my own cat, going for peaceful walks, or just unwinding with low-key activities - making pet sitting the perfect fit for me. I also have my own car and am happy to drive to your location for bookings. My boyfriend is also a pet sitter on Rover, and through him I’ve picked up lots of great tips on creating a comfortable, reliable experience for pets and their people. Together, we share a deep love for animals and understand how to provide a calm, safe environment. I’m happy to accommodate most needs - just let me know what works best for you and your pet!

Before any booking, I like to get to know your pet’s routine and preferences so I can provide the most comfortable and consistent care possible. Helpful things to know include: – Daily schedule (meal times, walks, sleep habits) – Triggers or sensitivities (e.g. loud noises, strangers, other animals) – Favorite activities or toys – Words or commands they recognize – Any medications or health concerns – House rules (e.g. furniture boundaries, leash preferences, crate routines) The more I know, the better I can tailor my care to make your pet feel safe, happy, and at home - even when you’re away. I’m happy to follow specific instructions and keep you updated every step of the way!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
