About
I know that leaving your home for any length of time can be stressful. You can have peace of mind entrusting your home and your fur babies to my care. I take pride in ensuring your property and loved ones are well cared for while you are away. I am a grandma who loves to knit and crochet. I am semi-retired and house/pet sitting allows me to pursue my art projects.

Joann's son, John, pet sat for 1 dog and 2 cats for 9 days since she was overbooked. He did an excellent job. I left several typed pages of notes for him, which he followed perfectly. He left the house in as good a shape or better than he found it. He emptied the trash, washed sheets, etc. He gave our dog all of the meds that she was taking. He was punctual about dog walking. He also took a few photos and let us know of any odd behavior from our pets. I would hire either of them again.
Details: Dog • 3 pets • Taking pet outside • Changing litter or bedding • Giving food and water • Overnight visit (10-12 hours) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

Joann and I met and decided she would stay in the home with our 2 dogs from 9/23 - 9/30. We'll confirm again once we get closer to the date.

Joann was fantastic!! I had her pet sit for a day but she did not house sit. I have every confidence she would be equally awesome if she “watched your home”. She clearly loves dogs!!!

I have been so busy, I'm late in review. Joanna is very trustworthy , friendly and loves our pets. She also helped bring our trashcan and mail in without notifying her in advance knowing we traveled and noone was in. Our pets were happy and healthy when we came back.
Thanks Joanna, appreciate it

Joann took wonderful care of our kitties. She spent time with them and they really liked her. It was comforting to know they were taken such good care of while we were gone.
