Pet care experience

I have Huskies- I can handle crazy!

I offer friendly, reliable pet care with plenty of personalized attention and extra TLC! I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and individual care instructions while you’re away. I can also provide grooming services while pet sitting, including brushing, nail trims, and other basic grooming needs. I’m experienced with safely managing multiple pets and can separate dogs from other pets or animals when needed to keep everyone comfortable and safe. I currently work at a veterinary clinic, where I’ve gained valuable experience caring for animals and handling a variety of situations. I’m CPR certified, trained in animal first aid, and have nearly a decade of hands-on animal handling experience. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like my own—making sure they’re safe, comfortable, healthy, and happy while you’re away. ❤️ Have questions or specific needs for your pets? Feel free to reach out—I’m happy to chat!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety is incredibly important to me. I always make sure pets are kept safely on leash or in a secure fenced yard, whichever is appropriate for the individual pet and situation. I’m also experienced with managing multiple pets and can safely separate dogs from other pets or animals when needed.

House Sitting • Aug 03, 2026

Justus did a fantastic job. She sent pictures of the dogs every day and she was super easy to communicate with. She house sat for us for a week and I was so comfortable knowing she was there. She even washed her sheets and ran the dishwasher on the last day - which I told her she didn't have to do! Would have her again - hands down!

Justus was great even if Koda wasn’t so sure of her being in her home the whole time we were gone (based on the daily photo pupdates we got)! She followed her feeding and exercise instructions like we asked, and even some bonus butt scratches. She even went above and beyond cleaning the house before she left. Would absolutely recommend and book again!

Justus was great taking care of all we asked and her updates were just what we needed. A real animal lover and care taker. My wife and I recommend!

I loved this service. It was very comforting to see the pictures and reports with how Teddy was. Justus was very good with Teddy and even brought my mail and deliveries in while I was away!

I would like to know how they are with other animals. I also need to know if they require special care (Meds, foods, allergies, etc).
