Pet care experience

Every animal's new best friend!

All my life I have been an avid animal lover and have raised and cared for pets of all kinds since I was just 2 years old when I got my first kitten. While having the extraordinary opportunity of living on a 650-acre farm for 5 years in upstate New York I took care of animals such as cows, chickens, lambs, and of course several dogs and cats! I learned quite a lot about the art of animal husbandry, working under high stress, and formed a pure love for all types of creatures that walk this earth. I have been responsible for the care and well-being of many dogs and cats throughout my life, be it personal or professional environments so have learned the understanding animal behavior quite well, providing medications and providing any special needs for your loved one. In my newest journey with animals I have been professionally walking dogs for almost 2 years and can proudly say I have maintained a 5-Star rating with incredibly kind comments. Your loved one’s happiness and comfort is and always will be my number one priority. I am SO excited to meet every single pet and pet parent. Update: I'm now working part time at Dogtopia in Tampa as Canine Coach where I work with every breed and size of dog! Please take this into consideration when requesting my services. I will accommodate to your needs wherever I can.

Dog Walking • set 09, 2023

Justin was so good with my nervous rescue! He takes his time to really get to know and make me and my pup comfortable. He understands dog body language, and adjusts to their needs. I would 100% recommend him. Thanks for taking care of my girl Justin!

House Sitting • dic 31, 2019

Justin was great, it was the first time leaving all 3 girls with a pet sitter. Justin communicated daily and sent photos of the girls. I would highly recommend Justin for watching your fur babies. I plan on using him again in the future.

House Sitting • nov 13, 2019

Justin did a in-home sitting with our pets for the weekend and he was great with our animals! He kept in contact and sent us photos every day. He always communicates with the utmost professionalism and is a very courteous house guest - we are very lucky to have found him! As soon as we came home we booked him for two more visits.

Having known Justin for many years I can attest to his dedication and love to all animals, particularly dogs. His responsibility, patience, and kind attitude towards our pets has not only benefited them but also us in the peace of mind it brings us in knowing that they are so well cared for and looked after. Anyone who wants to be assured that their pet is receiving the best of care, is being loved, and is safe could not make a better choice than hiring Justin.

Justin has a tremendous love for all animals, especially dogs. He is very responsible, reliable, and and all-around kind and loving person. I have four rescues that adore him and he has taken care of them for me on several occasions, Shadow and Charlie have especially taken to him. He is always showing me photos of the dogs or cats he's met and sharing his take on their personalities. He can always find something special about every dog or cat he meets. AND he is the only person I know that carries eco-friend dog-waste bags in his car, just in case.

I have known Justin his entire life. He has always been a caring and loving person. He loves animals and has spent many hours taking care of then on his families farm in upstate New York. I can't recall a time that Justin was around animals that they didn't become the center of his attention. He would be wonderful addition to your team.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am available nearly at all times. I am very fortunate that this is my full-time job. I do have a part time job as a Canine Coach, however the shifts are short and flexible. I am looking to take on short-term care, long-term care, regularly scheduled walks and anything in between. I am very flexible with my time and would absolutely love to schedule a meet-and-greet so you can feel 100% comfortable.
