About: I have owned & operated Joy’s Rescue since November 2015 rescuing over 80+ animals from dogs, cats & pocket pets. I have worked with all age ranges & worked with a lot of special needs animals. In past even finding accurate prognosis & saving lives. If you have any extra pets beyond cats and dogs we can arrange something that works best for everyone! I love absolutely all animal as my own - no matter how long I get with them. I am personally available whenever is needed. Any prior obligations can be worked around. Your pets come first always, whatever schedule your pet has is now mine own. I always request to go to clients house, based on operating a rescue from my home & this provides less change and less stress on all pets not having to loose their owner and be relocated all in the same day. Keeping them happy, safe and stress free is priority on all accounts.
“We felt comfortable with Nadia from the initial meet and greet to care for our dog and cat and entrusted her to house sit while we were out of town. She took great care of our pets and made their time away from us a great experience for them as well. We would definitely recommend her to watch your pets and house so your time away is worry free.”

“Carly was AMAZING! My boys are great with strangers but I could tell they looked forward to seeing her the whole time she was watching them. I didnt mind if she spent a ton of time with them to try and make sure they weren’t too high maintenance but she spent lots of time snuggling them, and giving them toys when she came over. Very quick and great communication. I would absolutely recommend her for your babies!”

“We cannot say enough about Belle and how amazing she was with our dog Lady! We took a week long trip and Belle made sure our dog was happy, safe and loved. She went above and beyond to make sure Lady was happy the entire time and never stressed. We received constant feedback with pictures and messages. This was our first time leaving our dog and thanks to Belle we were able to have a wonderful getaway with our family without any worries. She's a blessing and clearly has the background, skills, and personality to work with animals. We highly recommend her with any pet!!”

“Yvonne and Jim took amazing care of our 3 furbabies and on top left our home immaculate. Mowed the lawn and watered our shrubs. We couldn’t be happier and our pups were too. We will use their services again. So nice to find people we can trust”
