Information Justin D. would like to know about your pet

If there are any special needs, still working on potty training, any fears they may have or aggression triggers. Anything that you feel is important to know.

A typical day

I love active dogs that enjoy playing, but I'm also happy to cuddle if they prefer to relax. I love playing ball and taking walks around the neighborhood. I'll make sure to do whatever your dog enjoys most.

Home Full-Time & Dog’s Best Friend

Pet care experience

I started Rover after losing my best friend Rio suddenly at only 2 years old in May 2023. I thought it was temporary, but boy did I find my passion. Now, I have a new dog, Echo, who is my new best friend. For Echo’s safety, I board small dogs (under 20 lbs) as he can easily get hurt by larger dogs. I work from home, so your dog will receive attention throughout the day and plenty of potty breaks. I have a fenced yard where your small dog can romp around and play safely with my dog, Echo, and other small boarders that could be here. They will never be left unattended outside. If your dog is used to sleeping with you, they can sleep with us too. I will follow your nightly routine to ensure they feel comfortable and at home. If your dog enjoys walks, please let me know. Echo and I love taking walks around the neighborhood and we'd be happy to have your dog join us during their stay. I would like your dog to potty outside (or puppies learning to potty outside) as pads don’t work well with other little boarders around.

Justin did a great job. My dog seemed so happy to play with his dog. I felt like he was in good care and having a fun vacation.

Justin was the best. Gogo was loved and card for so well. He had a wonderful time with Justin and I could not be happier.
