Information Justine V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your pet requires special treatment such as timely medicine intake. It is important to me to understand your routines with them, any commands you use, or any triggers and anxieties they may have. If you’d like your dog to be walked, please let me know if they pull and what commands to use.

A typical day

I enjoy playing catch with dogs or playing tug-o-war. Anything that would tire them out. I walk dogs but enjoy running as well. So if your dog likes to run, we can do that! If there are tricks they know or any commands they are being trained on, I’d love to help reinforce their habits by doing it with them. For cats, I love making cats run & jump with cat toys. I love giving them pets and cuddles.

Pet care experience

I have spent a lot of time pet sitting family dogs, including powerful breeds like Pitbulls, Belgian Malinois, and German Shepherds. This hands-on experience taught me exactly how important structure and leash training are for a safe environment. Being a shorter person, I prefer to specialize in walking small dogs, medium dogs, or larger dogs who are already trained on the leash and calm when seeing others. Although I do have experience walking dogs who pull or get too excited, I want to ensure safety for your pet, myself, and others around me. However, if your larger pup is still working on their leash manners, I am more than happy to care for them entirely at home, focusing on indoor playtime, backyard fun, and tons of love! I am also a cat mom of 4 and love all types of cats.

Justine did an amazing job with Willa. This was Willa's first boarding so that is always a little nerve-wracking but Justine was very communicative the whole time. Will be booking again in the near future.
