Pet care experience

PLAY/PAWS/REWIND

Peace of mind : I have my dog first aid ! I have an air tag collar to provide when your dog boards with me. Expect a lot of pictures 🙈🤍. I am familiar with large breeds and have raised several dogs from puppyhood; staffies, great pyr, caucasian shep, german shep, Dobies, rescue mixes... I am comfortable walking strong dogs, and a patient dog walker. I live in a detached house with a grassy backyard. I am familiar with Senior canines and puppies. Some of my previous work includes working at a dog daycare when I was younger, doing overnights privately, fostering and dog walking. I have since shifted my career, however seeking any additional work (and cuddles!) with animals. I work remotely from home (with off site call outs) which means your pupper will get lots of attention. I do not crate dogs unless the owner requests it. I believe in positive reinforcement training. That said, I have previously worked with dogs with prongs and e-collars too. I am big on taking many pictures to put your heart and missing of your fur baby at ease. Please give me as many details about your dog and routine as you can- as I would love to ensure your dog enjoys their stay and hopefully will feel right at home at what would be like an aunties' house.

Justine did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was away. I felt confident that they were safe and happy during her visits. She is a fantastic communicator and sent lots of great photos and updates during each of her visits. I definitely recommend her and will book with her again if I go on another trip :)

Justine has been super communicative and I feel very confident leaving Otter with her! I love the peace of mind that comes from knowing she has her dog first aid, and she is just lovely to interact with all around. Definitely plan to continue working with her!!

Justine took such great care of my dog Bo! She was super friendly, communicative, and easy to coordinate with! She sent lots of photos and kept me in the loop while I was away for the weekend, it gave me such peace of mind. I would 100% recommend her and book with her again ☺️
