Highlights
Pet care experience
Friend of all pets, owner of one
I grew up raising and taking care of dogs my entire life, both my own and those of family friends that I would house sit for, and have had a cat now for 5 years. From 2023-2024 I was a professional dog handler at the Downtown Dog Lounge and took care of all sizes, temperaments, and ages of pup every day. My responsibilities included keeping them safe during play, taking them on walks, one-on-one play, as well as administering oral medications and eye drops. I have had my cat for 5 years and learned a lot about cats and their care during that time. As a COVID kitty, he had some behavioral quirks when I began to return to work, so I have plenty of experience being around cats with separation anxiety and that are heavily food motivated. I love every pet that I come across and take care of them as my own. I have been a house-sitter many times and am comfortable taking care of anything that needs doing while you are away.

Safety, trust & environment
My cat is an indoor cat due to living in an apartment currently, so I am used to spending lots of time during the day entertaining and playing with him. I am comfortable providing any service you may need for your pet, whether that be something as simple as letting them out for supervised outdoor time in a yard, or providing well-being checks for any pets that may need it during the day.
Ratings and reviews
You will not find a better dog walker than Justin! He is incredibly professional, flexible, and communicative. Very grateful to have him care for my dog when I need him.
Justin was an incredibly reliable walker for our sweet Milli girl. He made sure to meet her beforehand, was very communicative throughout the duration of our booking, and never went even slightly under the 30 minutes we booked (often going a bit over). We will definitely book Justin again, and recommend him highly to others looking for dog walking services.
Justin communicated well and started my pup’s walk right on time and even refilled her water when he noticed it was low! He was happy to come over for a meet and greet before her first walk. Will definitely be using him again
Justin is nothing short than amazing. Thank you for your flexibility, kindness, and thoughtfulness while caring for Mack. I can go on through my day knowing you’ve taken good care of him.
Justin was so great with our new dog who is very high energy and was just adopted, so he's still adjusting. Toby instantly felt comfortable with Justin and had a great time!
Justin clearly cares and is very knowledgeable of dogs. I feel like I am leaving my dog in care of a new friend in her life. Such a difference to know he enjoys it too!

Schedule
I currently work a flexible part time research job at the University of Washington, so I can take care of your pet whenever is needed. I am generally available during the week for walks and pop-in visits, and a little less so on the weekends.
