Let me love on your pet!
Pet care experience
*COVID info: I am fully vaccinated, boostered, and am happy to wear a KN95 if we meet in person. Please let me know if you have any other questions! *Repeat customers are always welcome to message me to check my availability regardless of what my calendar states! I love animals. When I say they're the light of my life, I'm not kidding! I've always had dogs of all sizes (Terrier to New Foundland) and have spent quite a bit of time pet sitting over the years. I am comfortable walking, running, bathing, applying medications, feeding, watering plants, etc., in your single or multi-pet household. I currently have one dog myself and hope to expand my family soon! I'm not sure what sort of algorithmic heaven Rover has stuck me in, but I've been so lucky to get to take care of elderly pets and ones that need just a little more love and care. No judgement here about asking me to do 1,000 little things to keep your precious one(s) happy -- it's absolutely my pleasure.
Reviews
Justine is a great communicator and is always prompt and sends us great photos of our kitty while we’re away! Thanks Justine!
Justine was fantastic, as always!
The videos Justine left of our cat were so adorable that we let out multiple „awwwww“s like a couple of idiots, she’s great!
Justine is the best pet-sitter we've ever had. She loves animals, and they definitely love her back. She is reliable, responsive and conscientious. We have felt so comfortable having Justine in our home with our pets, and recommend her to all our friends.
About Justine D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Communication is my number one priority. I am detail-oriented and more than happy to follow your requests to the letter. I will take your dog wherever they like to go but will not let them off-leash or take them to a dog park without your explicit permission. While I am not a dog trainer, I have experience with reactive dogs and am more than willing to work with you on whatever you and your dog need to feel comfortable.
Information Justine D. would like to know about your pet
Likes and dislikes, any triggers (men, hats, etc), food or praise motivated, any allergies or medications, your preferences on activities, if you are ok with your pup meeting other humans/dogs on walks, and if they know "stay" and "come."
A typical day
I'm a big fan of physical and mental stimulation, so I like to make sure dogs have an excellent sniffy walk and a puzzle to work on and cats have solid playtime. While I love taking dogs to parks, I'm also happy to take them on an excursion on a trail! I'll take your cat on a hike, too, if you want, but I usually find their favorite toy for some fun (cat tunnels are my favorite).

Availability
My schedule is currently all over the place, but if my calendar says I'm free then I'm generally very flexible! I'm an early bird, so I'm happy to drop in as early as 5:30 AM and prefer to not take many bookings past about 8:00 PM. But I'm flexible, as I said, so feel free to reach out!
