About Joanna

Hello, fellow pet lovers! 🐾

My name is Joanna, and I’m thrilled to bring my pet care services to Palmy. With over a decade of experience pet and house sitting across the USA and Europe, I understand how important it is to find reliable, loving care for your pets.

Before moving to New Zealand, I owned and operated a successful pet-sitting company in the US, providing trusted care to over 116 clients in my area.

My partner, James—a Kiwi and long-time Palmy resident—and I met while in Europe a few years ago. Now, we are excited to offer pet care services in our home in Hokowhitu! Our property features a fully fenced yard that divides into two sections—one for our own dog, Maddie, and another for our guests. Maddie is a medium-sized mixed breed who can get excited when meeting new friends but is gentle natured and friendly.

**Kindly Note: Some sections of our fence are 1 meter high. Please inform us if your dog has a tendency or ability to jump over it.*

We can board one dog at a time, and they’ll have their own dedicated room in our house with a private entrance leading to our fenced in backyard. This setup ensures a comfortable, low-stress environment for your pet while you're away and allows them to have their own space - inside and out - for the duration of their stay. We only accept one reservation at a time, so it will be your dog and our dog Maddie. No crowded kennels here!

*Doggie Day Care is available if we do not have an overnight boarding guest - Feel free to message if interested. Off hours, Holidays and Weekends friendly.*

We are comfortable with all breeds, sizes and ages. Administering oral medications, preparing meals, taking on-leash walks, etc. Let us know your pet's needs and we're happy to accommodate. 🐶

We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!
