Pet care experience

Furry friends are my life :)

I grew up with a dog and have been dog sitting since I was 15 years old. I rescued my beagle when she was a puppy, my last semester in college, and I raised her for 12 years until she recently passed away. I’m not ready to get a dog just yet, but I love having a companion throughout the day while I work from home. You can always count on me to treat your dog as if they were my own.

Justine was absolutely amazing! I knew at our meet and greet that Nash was going to be taken care of without a doubt. Justine sent many updates (which I love), lots of pictures and videos and stole his heart just in the short weekend! I will definitely be using Justine again and I recommend everyone to use her as well! She is absolutely amazing!

Justine is awesome!! Very attentive with our anxious and high energy dog. Always kept us up to date and took lots of pictures. She’s fantastic and we will definitely be rebooking with her 💕

Justine took such great care of Minnie while we were away. She sent regular photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear Minnie was happy and well cared for. Justine was also very intuitive and patient with Minnie’s personality, meeting her where she was and adjusting as needed. I really appreciated how thoughtful and attentive she was, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Dozer loved his stay with Justine, and we did as well! She cared for him as if he was her own. We looked forward to our daily updates and pictures. When we ran into a hiccup upon returning from vacation, she even offered to care for him for an extra evening. We would definitely love to have Justine care for Dozer the next time we go on vacation!

Justine was really great and my dog Jimmy Dean had a great time! I would definitely use her again. She also communicated really well and sent great photos.

Schedule

I work from home and live a very low key lifestyle. I don't do much on the weekends other than go to the beach or hang out with friends who also have dogs. I am able to take your dog outside as much as they need as well as provide walks throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a dog friendly apartment complex with a private entrance which makes it easy to take dogs in and out quickly. Dogs are allowed on all my furniture and will get treated as my own. :)

A typical day

If your dog loves the beach I will gladly take them as much as I can! My dog loved to lay on the beach under the shade but I would take her into the water for a quick dip to cool her down. If not a beach dog, I can do plenty of walks or even take your dog on a run, as I’m a runner myself.
