Highlights
Pet care experience
I haven't met a dog I didn't love!
One of my first jobs was at an indoor dog daycare and cageless boarding facility and I worked every position there and learned so much about working with dogs. From there I went on to be a dog walker and trainer and eventually settled into being a sitter while I raise my son. I've owned my own large breed dogs over the years and plan to grow old with many more.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Justine is the best. Our golden retriever, Louie, has the best time with Justine and her family, and we’ve only had positive experiences and communication is great. Thanks Justine!

Justine is amazing! She took really good care of our Bear Rottweiler. Bear had surgery the day before and needed extra care and Justine was very sweet and keeps us updated with Bear’s condition. You are the best Justine.

Justine is awesome! Our world revolves around our 10 month old Bernie. Justine makes it comfortable for us to leave him because we know he’s in good care - he legitimately jumps out of the care and sprints in the house to see his best buddy Bodie. Justine also sends ample pics and videos throughout the day which is sooo appreciated for us obsessive dog mums! 10/10 recommend

Justine and Bodi were such great hosts to my shepsky dog, Hazel. She is a shy rescue dog so I appreciated their patience with her and it was heartwarming to see her come out of her shell with them. She loved to play in the yard with their hose! Justine was also very responsive and flexible with pickup and dropoff times. Will definitely be booking with them again soon!

Justine could not have been more accommodating in making sure our puppy Theo’s stay was inviting and overall amazing! 10/10 would recommend and looking forward to his next stay with her!

Justine and her family (and dog Bodie) took phenomenal care of our dog, Kobuk, for a week. Justine is so caring and loving to animals, and Kobuk (who was a bit nervous at first) soon was relaxed and happy in her care. Justine sent lots of pictures/videos to reassure us that he was doing well. We highly recommend her! If we could give more than 5 stars we would! Nancy and Steve

Schedule
Currently I'm a stay at home mom so my schedule is very open and flexible. I'm available mornings, afternoons, and evenings as well as weekends. My time is my own so I have a lot of freedom to be here with the dogs.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a decent sized house with double fenced side yards so there is lots of safe space for the dogs to play. We don't mind pets on the couch or bed so there's a lot of freedom inside the house. Having a dog door installed also allows the dogs go outside whenever they please but I can provide as many supervised potty breaks as needed.

A typical day
On top of walks around the East Bay and trips to our local dog park, I picked up a kiddie pool for the summer for the dogs who likes water and it's situated under and umbrella for optimal shade. I have no shortage of ropes, balls, stuffies, nylabones, and collagen chews for them to play with and I set up a bubble machine for some extra enrichment.
