Information Justin H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time about any temperamental issues, any diet or food needs, any special commands, or any "rules of the house" that should always be obeyed by the furry ones of the house. Also, please let me know if you'd like my dog (Winston, the one with me in the sweater) to come and play with your pup(s) - he's super duper friendly with dogs and plays well with pups of all sizes. N.B. - 1) You will need to schedule a paid walk or drop in to make sure it’s a great fit before booking multiple drop ins or walks, house sits, boarding, or day care 2) If your dogs need to be potty/house trained; if you need pickup/drop off before 8am or after 8pm; if you request a booking with less than 2 hours notice; then there will be additional charges added to your booking. If you wish to board a puppy under six months old the price is $150/night, no exceptions. 3) For house sitting requests, my dog(s) join for added playtime. For boarding requests, there will always be other dogs with me so your dog must be able to socialize with other (big) dogs. 4) I also provide private obedience training for an additional $45/half hour or $75/hour - please mention training in your initial message if you are interested. 5) I provide e-collar training for dogs and owners for a one time fee but we will need to establish a working relationship and good fit for your dog(s) first. This training usually takes 3-6 weeks. 6) Your dogs must be vaccinated and up to date on their shots. No exceptions for any reason, including puppies.

A typical day

Bigger is better, but all are loved

Pet care experience

Have owned a black lab, golden retriever, and two rhodesian ridgebacks. Love bigger dogs and have been owning, caring for, and looking after dogs that need exercise, discipline, and fun as part of their routine - my ridgie Winston is available to help get energy out for doggos who need playtime. I charge more because your dog(s) will do far more than just sit around the house - they will join me on my daily adventures out in the world, playing at the park, hiking in the woods, exploring creeks and watering holes, meeting new dog friends, etc

I couldn’t be happier with Justin! He took incredible care of my two Labs and went above and beyond—regular updates, photos throughout the day, and playtime. He’s punctual, trustworthy, and clearly experienced with dogs. My boys were relaxed and happy the entire time. I’ve already booked him for my next trip! Highly recommend—five stars!

Justin was wonderful with our large goldendoodle Nash. We boarded him while doing a long traveling week, got daily updates and check ins. He took Nash on lots of fun outings and we came home to a very well loved and cared for pup! Would highly recommend Justin for watching your dog especially a large dog who loves to hike and be outdoors.

Justin was fantastic with our GSP! He was incredibly responsive throughout the whole week, and it was clear he's very comfortable with larger dogs — making sure she got out and properly exercised every day. The regular photo updates and check-ins always kept us in the loop. The pickup and drop-off service was a huge bonus and made our trip so much smoother. Highly recommend Justin and we'll definitely be booking again!
