Joanna R. Pet Care Provider in New York, NY 10003

I’ve always been an animal lover, although I’ve only ever had birds of my own. I’m that person that wants to pet every dog, and pspsps at every cat on the street. I’ve been a caregiver for children with special needs for 12 years, and in doing so, ended up being hired as an animal caregiver as well. These families saw the care and attention I’d give all living beings, and soon I was being referred to more people because they saw how clear it was that I really, genuinely love taking care of their pets. I’ve cared for puppies, kittens, birds, and fish - as well as older dogs and cats that needed to be given medication.

I’m currently working part-time caring for children from 2-5pm Mondays - Thursdays, so I have plenty of free time to dedicate to your fur babies! I specialize in house sitting, but I can definitely do drop in visits and walks whenever my schedule allows.

love to make pets feel as comfortable as possible, especially if the family is away for an extended period of time. When house sitting for a client, I follow all the rules and routines that are specific to that individual animal. I have done up to 6 walks a day for a very nervous pup, as well as cuddle time, and whatever else makes the pets feel loved and secure. I am always available by phone and welcome any check-ins by the clients. I offer utter transparency, reliability, and trustworthiness.
