Highlights
Pet care experience
Compassionate Care for Every Pet
My life has always been shaped by animals, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I grew up in an environment filled with a wide variety of animals, from household pets to farm and small exotic animals, which gave me a deep respect for their unique needs and personalities. In high school, I was involved in 4H, where I raised pigs and learned the responsibility, patience, and commitment that animal care requires. As an adult, I have continued that lifelong connection through caring for companion animals as well as birds, reptiles, and aquatic life. I also have experience with puppies, basic dog training, and senior dog care, including administering medications and injections when needed. I bring attentiveness, reliability, and genuine care to every pet I look after, treating each one as if they were my own.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I provide attentive, responsible care exclusively in my clients’ homes. I am conscientious, respectful of each space, and maintain a clean and calm environment. I do not smoke or drink, and I am happy to care for plants, bring in mail, and manage packages while you are away. Because I work for myself and locally as an artist, I am easy to reach and rarely far from home, allowing me to respond quickly to check ins, schedule changes, or urgent needs. I prioritize clear communication, consistency, and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own familiar environment.
Ratings and reviews
Justin did a great job walking our reactive rescue. Paddington looked forward to his daily walks. Justin was flexible and always on time. We highly recommend him.
Justin was flexible with my change of plans, and Coco loved getting to walk with him each day. Definitely recommend!
Justin was great! I appreciated his communication. He took my dog for a 30 min walk around the neighborhood. I'll be happy to book again
The critters seem good when I get home - happy but not anxious which is a positive for Justin.
Justin took amazing care of our senior pup. We got picture updates of how she was doing for our week away and she was happy and relaxed when we got home. Justin was communicative and flexible. We can't recommend him enough.
Justin is wonderful. Very prompt. Good communicator. Provides great pictures from each visit.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am a local artist who works in the neighborhood, so I am never far from home and can provide frequent check ins, walks, and attentive care throughout the day. I have lifelong experience caring for animals, including fostering dogs and supporting pets with special needs or medication requirements. I work part time and am rarely away for more than a few hours, which allows me to adjust my schedule around each dog’s energy level, whether that means park time for active pups or quiet companionship for more laid back dogs.
