Hi. I'm Justin and thank you for checking out my profile. I grew up with a Sharpei, German Shepard and Chow Chow. In college I raised a Rottweiler/German Shepard Mix. On my own, I have been lucky to have a Sharpei (senior rescue) and Rottweiller (senior rescue). I am a dog person through and through. I treat each dog like they were my own and give them the best care possible while their owners are away. I think the most important things when it comes to dogs, whether it is a short walk or a weeks long boarding are (1) advocate for the dog, ensuring it feels safe and has a positive experience (2) understanding and respecting each dog's boundaries. I have raised multiple puppies and have worked with multiple dog trainers/behaviorists, so understand basics of training. I have rescued multiple senior dogs and have senior dog experience ranging from dispensing medicine to understanding that older dogs sometimes just need to take everything a little slower. I have also had challenging dogs- not properly socialized to dogs, leash pulling dogs to those with a bite history. Overall, I will do everything I can to ensure your dog feels safe and has enjoyable time.
