Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets > Everything
I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Their loyalty, companionship, and energy make them so special, and they deserve the same care and kindness in return. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands on experience raising and caring for both dogs and cats. A little bit about me, I live in the Albany Park area and have my own reliable transportation, so I’m dependable and able to get to your pet when needed. I work freelance, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s walks, drop ins, or longer stays. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like my own and take the time to understand their personality and needs. I’m very patient and comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who may need a slower and gentler approach. I also have experience with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your dog or cat loves to be active and go on walks or prefers to stay home and relax, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also like to keep owners updated with messages and the occasional cute photo so you can feel at ease while you’re away:) I have a 7 year old Boxer who lives with me. She’s very friendly, loves other dogs, and would be happy to have some company. I’m easy to get along with, responsible, and always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. If there’s anything specific your pet needs, I’ll always try my best to accommodate. I’d love to be a great match for your furry friend!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Justina went above and beyond for my dog!
Justina was so great with our puppy, we are so grateful for the care, clear communication, adorable pics, and thoughtful gift as well! We would definitely love to have Justina come back anytime!
Justina is great and lived our sweet dog. She was clean and brushed when we arrived to pick her up. This is a perfect place if you need a fantastic sitter for your small to medium dog.
Justina is a fun and caring person. She is responsible and dedicated; she loves my dog and is always down to take care of him!
For as long as I've know her, Justina has had a very clear passion and love for animals. It hard to think of a time she didn't at the very least mention her dog back home. For her, animals are not pets, but an integral part of the family, understanding the importance that these creatures hold to their owners. I have no doubt that her passion, responsibility, and enthusiasm would translate into an amazing care taker for your animals, for your family.
Justina is a responsible young lady. She has grown up with dogs all her life and has a strong passion with helping them. She is responsible and mature. She will definitely be a good candidate for this position.

Schedule
My work is freelance, so I’m not always tied to a fixed schedule. This means I can plan my day around pet care and be available when your pet needs attention, consistency, or last-minute help.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I offer both in-home and at-your-home pet care depending on what works best for you. My home has a secure fenced backyard and is close to a large park for walks and playtime. I also have space available for a crate if your pet needs it, ensuring they stay comfortable and safe during their stay.

A typical day
We’ll have a fun with some daily walks, engaging brain enrichment games to keep your pet mentally stimulated, and relaxing time listening to calming music. I can also follow and include any scheduled routines or specific activities you normally do with your pet to keep everything consistent and familiar. I make sure each activity is tailored to your pet’s energy level.
