Highlights
Pet care experience
their home away from home <3
My wife Justine and I have shared a love for animals our whole lives. After years of working in animal hospitals, shelters, and boarding facilities, Justine decided to follow her passion full-time and focus on caring for pets through dog sitting. She treats every furry friend with the same love, patience, and attention she’s given to countless animals over the years — your pets will feel right at home with us!

Ratings and reviews
Aka had a great time with Roman and Justine. They sent nightly updates and aka was very happy and healthy when I picked him up.
Roman and Justine are very responsible and kind with their animals. They were amazing with my dogs who have very different sizes and temperaments — big, lazy Moo and tiny, bouncy Betty. They clearly communicate and are happy to adhere their care to what each individual pup needs. We will definitely be using their services again!
Justine was very nice and our Carmen had a good visit with them. She even liked their inside kitty!
Justine kept us up to date with both pics and comments..you can tell she is a true pet lover!! We typically use business kennels but were going to be gone longer for our vacation..so glad we trusted our dog to her!!! Id highly recommend her!!
Yogi seemed very happy and well cared for when we picked him up. Both Justine and Roman were very caring and easy to work with. I highly recommend!
We’ve gone to Roman and Justine twice and our experience didn’t instill confidence that our dog was in the best care. At the end of the day, we don’t think they are the best fit for us. The first stay was a two night weekend about a month ago and the second stay was a 4 night long weekend over Memorial Day Weekend. Communication/Photos - They sent 2 photos during the first stay. We asked for more photos the second time, but we didn’t receive a single photo for over 24 hours and received a total of 4 for the entire second stay. Maybe for the best because our dog looked stressed or sad in every photo so it actually made us more worried. They were very responsive leading up to the stay but that seemed to taper off once he was there. Dog’s behavior - our dog is a HUGE dogs dog. Every repeat sitter we’ve used, he’s run to the door and didn’t look back at us out of pure excitement! When I dropped him off the second time with Roman and Justine, he pulled back multiple times trying to come back to me. When we picked him up after the second visit, they commented that he loved playing with their little dog the most, but he’s never liked the little dogs over the big dogs since he likes to play rougher. Definitely could be a one time unique thing, but the combination of everything else didn’t instill trust that this information was the whole story. Feeding - We left very detailed instructions about feeding our dog since he has a sensitive stomach but it didn’t appear they followed the instructions. We sent over two cans of prescription wet food and he came home with those two cans unopened. His kibble was nearly gone, so he did eat but not according to the instructions. Thankfully, they seemed to follow the number one rule of no human food that we heavily communicated because of his history with pancreatitis. Back home - Normally after rovers, our dog is ZONKED for days from playing so much. But both times he has returned to us full of energy as if he didn’t get to play or get any enrichment. Like we said before, just not a good fit for us but our dog still returned to us fine.

Schedule
We’re also working on making our backyard a total pup paradise, it’s fully enclosed and perfect for zoomies and safe potty breaks! Your dog will hang out inside with us most of the day, but we love heading outside with them throughout the day for fun and exercise. 🥰
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Our home is completely pet-friendly, no furniture rules here! We see your pups as part of the family, so they’re welcome to cuddle up wherever they feel comfy. 🛋️💞 We have a fully fenced-in yard that’s perfect for safe playtime and zoomies. I also have two German Shepherds who are the sweetest big babies you’ll ever meet! They’ve been socialized with kids, people, and dogs of all breeds and ages, so they’re calm, gentle, and love making new friends. For every new guest, we do SLOW, positive introductions to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe. Once the pups are familiar, they usually hit it off and play like they’ve known each other forever! We always strive to make your pet’s stay feel like their favorite sleepover ever. 🥰
Pets
A typical day
When your pup stays with us, they’ll enjoy a mix of playtime, relaxation, and plenty of love! We keep things as close to their normal routine as possible, from feeding times to walks and cuddles. Whether your dog loves chasing toys, sunbathing, or curling up for naps, we make sure they get the perfect balance of fun and comfort. We also love keeping their minds busy! We do lick mats, frozen Kongs, and simple training games to make their stay extra fun and enriching. (And if it’s okay with you, your pup might even head home knowing a new trick or two! 🐶✨)
