Your pet's new BFF!
Pet care experience
Hello! I am a pet care professional who has a wide array of experience and training in many facets of the pet care world. I have worked as one of the leading catsitter/dog walkers at the top pet care company in Chicago and now I am excited to care for the coolest pets in the L.A. area! I have also worked as a vet tech assistant, kennel attendant, and animal care representative, in addition to owning wonderful pets of my own (dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, rabbits, and Bruce - my guinea pig best friend)! I am also very involved with volunteering & fostering for an amazing animal shelter organization going on many, many years now! My crazy (crazy good that is, ha) attention to detail, extremely high level of attentiveness and care, communication skills, tidiness, organization, and intuitive pet empathy & connection has continuously set me apart from my colleagues and has allowed me to achieve a reputation that I am extremely proud of! I will always go above and beyond to make both you and your furry family members feel comfortable. No request is too big or too small - Need someone to sing your puppy a lullaby to help them sleep? As a singer/actor, I'm your person! Need someone who will count out specifically 9.36 treats to give to your cat each visit? Again, I'm the one for the job! I am very accustomed and experienced with certain exotic pets as well! Helping your pet feel safe and loved is what it's all about and I am so excited to have the privilege of being their care taker!
Reviews
Justine was an absolute rockstar! She took great pictures, and made my dog feel comfortable and safe while I was away. I'm using Justine more and more and so thankful she is doing doggy day care now. She is great for dog walks and drop-in visits! After one amazing visit, it's an easy decision to say Justine will be the first choice every time I need someone to step in when I have to step out!
The boys LOVE Justine! In minutes she built trust with our shy guy, Frank, and Dean was stoked on getting to walk with her. Justine really cares about the dogs, their needs and wants, and the owner’s needs and wants. The level of care she provides is unmatched and she doesn’t leave any details out when meeting the dogs for the first time. Frank and Dean came back from their walk happy and chilled out after a really great midday jaunt. We most certainly will be booking Justine weekly.
Justine did such a great job watching my two cats for an extended period of time. We met before she agreed to take care of them and talked through everything she needed to know, she asked such good questions so I knew immediately she was going to do a great job. While I was away she sent super detailed updates about how the cats were doing, sent great photos of them, and quickly earned their trust so they could also get lots of fun play time while she was visiting. I would recommend her without hesitation and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.
Justine is an incredible cat sitter. She took excellent care of my cat Lucille for five days. She was able to keep her safe and happy in my absence. Justine made the whole process very easy and stress free. We are very thankful for all her help, and very happy to have met her.

Safety, trust & environment
Making sure that both your baby & your home are safe is #1. I treat every home with the utmost respect and will always check/remove shoes, triple check locks and alarms, and even do a glance around for any thing that looks off. I'm a tidy/clean freak so your home will always look fantastic when you arrive back and don't hesitate to reach out if you need a little extra help doing some light cleaning such as doing the dishes or taking out the trash. I would be more than happy to help!

Information Justine R. would like to know about your pet
I want to know all about your pet! Any issues such as agression, separation anxiety, resource guarding, etc? What are their unique personality quirks? Any special needs or accommodations? And, of course, what are their favorite things to do!?
A typical day
It's staycation time! - Lots of pampering, play time, cuddles, stimulating walks, and enrichment activities! There is also always time for a doggy neck rub or kitty scritches (my specialty) ☺️!
