Safety, trust & environment
As a Member of Pet Sitters International (PSI), I adhere to a professional Code of Ethics and maintain Private Professional Liability Insurance as a primary layer of protection alongside the Rover Guarantee. In addition to this coverage, I hold an advanced certification in Pet First Aid & CPCR specifically for canine and feline companions. While I act as a dedicated steward for all lives in the home—including pocket pets and exotics—my advanced emergency medical protocols are focused on domestic cats and dogs. This triple commitment to professional ethics, financial accountability, and emergency readiness ensures your residency is managed with the highest standard of safety and active life-saving expertise.
Information Justine H. would like to know about your pet
To help me pre-populate your companion's custom Care Plan prior to our initial introduction, please share a few quick details when reaching out: 📩 When Reaching Out, Please Share: 1. Medical & Behavioral Essentials: Any active medications, dietary mixtures, or specific behavioral thresholds (such as separation anxiety, resource guarding, or leash reactivity). 2. Vaccination & Policy Alignment: To ensure full compliance with my private professional insurance guidelines and protect the health of all companions in my daily care, all pets must be current on their core vaccinations (including Rabies). 3. Profile Alignment: Please ensure all pets in the home have individual active profiles attached directly to the Rover request to ensure platform compliance. For unique habitat-based species, let me know in our message thread so I can manually log them under my private professional insurance stack. 4. Access Protocols: A brief note on your preferred entry method (lockbox, keypad, garage code) so we can easily review it during our meet-and-greet. 📌 Platform & Booking Compliance Expectations: 💳 Platform & Booking Compliance: In strict alignment with Rover’s terms of service, all initial communication, service details, and scheduling updates must remain entirely on the platform to maintain full booking compliance. 🎫 Itinerary Synchronization: To ensure total continuity of care, the scheduled booking windows on Rover must accurately reflect the exact days and times you need me to arrive and depart. Any adjustments to dates, visit times, or service types must be finalized through Rover’s booking modification prior to the start of the scheduled service. Thank You!

Reviews
Justine is very professional, caring and thorough. She took excellent care of Danso and followed all instructions perfectly. She went above and beyond and i felt more than comfortable with time she spend watching after Danso and my house. She sent lots of detailes updates with pictures and video. Highly recommend and will be booking her again.
Justine is a fantastic sitter and left me without worry while she housesat with our fur babies for a few nights. She is a clear communicator and took very good care of our three Australian Shepherds. On top of the excellent care, she also left our house in great shape for our return.
We had special needs pets and Justine took excellent care of them and our home. Our shy cat even came out of her shell within the first day. Justine is a great communicator and has a deep understanding of both cats and dogs. Our pets all give her 5 paws!
This is my first time using Rover or any sitter and I was nervous. But after meeting Justine I felt very happy and comfortable. My dog loves and she took great care of her and my home.
