Nanny Jo
Founder of Mary Puppins SD
British Nanny For Your Fur Baby!
From London, England Joanne is the Mary Poppins of the pooch world.
Founder of Mary Puppins, Joanne has owned dogs for as long as she can remember and as a child she'd train dogs and take care of pets for friends and family. Always having a special connection with dogs, the caring of our best friend became a passion for her.
​
As an adult she bred pedigree Pugs and English Bulldogs. Nanny Jo took her love for these breeds very seriously and was awarded an accredited breeder award from The Kennel Club of Great Britain. Some of her puppies even made it to the show ring and one, a model for greetings cards.
​
Nanny Jo is a certified reiki practitioner and offers this service to pets, she has a few regular fur clients from dogs to horses. She also has certified pet CPR and FIRST AID training, she is experienced in administering medications. Nanny Jo has over 35 years of experience caring for puppies, adult dogs and senior dogs, she also has a wealth of experience with giant breeds and when in her care they always come first and she treats them as her own. Does your fur baby sleep on your bed? Nanny Jo will accommodate, Do they like back scratches? Just let her know. While in her and her staff's care, she will aim to make a home away from home for your bundle of fun and insure that your little darlings experience is super-cali-fragilistic-expiali-docious!
​
And yes! she really does have a British accent!

Dog Boarding
House Sitting
In our home
Your dog stays overnight in your sitter’s home. They’ll be treated like part of the family in a comfortable and relaxed environment.
​
This is not like a boarding kennel facility, we are cage, crate, and kennel free, this is your dogs home away from home, where they will have all the comforts and love of home with our undivided attention and snuggles.
Included in your pooches' 5-star stay are walks, park or beach trips, car rides, trails, healthy snacks, and a huge fenced yard to lounge in.
​
we like to call it a STAYcation
In your home overnight
Your sitter stays and takes care of your dog/s and any other pets, and your home.
Your dog will get all the attention they need without leaving home, especially good for large breeds, senior dogs, special needs dogs, and dogs with anxiety.
Your dog will be in the comfort of their own home. This service includes feeding, walks, park or beach trips, poop pick up, plants watered, trash cans taken out, litter box clean up, and mail and parcels bought in.
​
​
Ask Nanny Jo about home cooking for your dog, with her dog nutrition experience, and delicious healthy organic recipes your furball will be cleaning the bowl with Nanny Jo as their personal chef.
(this service is extra and includes one month of fresh dog food, plus a lesson on how to make it)
Drop - In Visits
Pet Reiki
and
Sound Healing
In your home or remotely

Pets Help Heal Us - We Can Return The Healing and Love.
In your home
Your sitter drops by your home to play with your dog/cat feed and refresh water bowls, give potty breaks, pets, and lovins, let them out in the yard or clean the litter box.

"Great Service"
Joanne was such a great sitter for our pup! She provided many photo updates and we knew that we had nothing to worry about. Highly recommended for anyone needing a wondrful caretaker for their pet!
​
​
"Kind & Loving"
​
Joanne or Nanny Jo, as my Shibsy (my Shiba Inu) knows her, is a literal godsend. She is caring, loving, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about her work. I am very grateful we found her, cuz my little fur ball is not the friendliest but loved Nanny Jo from day one. We are so happy to have her in our lives.
​
​
"Very Professional"
Joanne is amazing!
We was stuck for boaring and found her and she could accommodate our Pug Jake last minute, and she went above and beyond what we expected, keeping us updated on his day and asked us if we wanted photo and video updates. This really put our mind at ease knowing he was having such a good time and was well taken care of, a big bonus too was her pet CPR and First Aid training!
