Pet care experience

Grad student + life-long dog owner!

I love taking care of dogs! I've grown up with dogs my whole life (1 Maltipoo, 2 Shih-Tzus, 1 Aussie Doodle, and 1 Poodle), each of which has had a distinct personality. I also have experience dog-sitting for larger dogs in the area, including Golden Retrievers and Black Labs. My family's current pets are quite needy, so I am used to frequent walking and particular routines. However, I'm also happy with a more relaxed dog.

Justin was great and seemed like Mochi really enjoyed her time staying with him. Would definitely rebook with him again.

Cooper had a great time with Justin - came back happy and healthy! Justin genuinely loves dogs and is experienced with dog caring. He went the extra mile to hand feed Cooper when noticing he was not eating well from the bowl. Also highly responsive and accommodating with our schedule changes. Recommend!

Justin has grown up with dogs his whole life, and understands the responsibility of taking care of one. He is attentive and responsible and will be able to cater to any needs your dog has.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 2BR/2BA apartment building on Stanford campus. The building is very new. It is surrounded by several fields and playgrounds, so there is plenty of space for dogs to be walked. I have no personal pets.

A typical day

I love spending time outdoors, I'd love taking your dog(s) for walks around the various trails and fields near my apartment. I also love sitting outside with a cup of coffee, so if your dog is social, I'd love to take them to grab coffee on campus and people watch.

Please tell me about any typical routines you maintain for your dog (i.e., walking, feeding, favorite toys, typical behaviors). I am used to picky dogs, so just let me know!
