Description:

I've had animals all my life. I'm an animal lover to the extreme. My friends have affectionally named me the "Patron Saint of Animals" because I am always bringing home a rescued animal. I've rescued and re-homed over 20 cats, 8 dogs, 6 ferrets and 1 hairless rat. I've got a small chihuahua terrier mix that is 4 years old and 3 cats. These are my "forever" pets, they aren't going anywhere. All my animals are great with other animals, so there are no issues with them not liking newcomers. I've been babysitting animals on and off for my friends for free for years, so when I saw this website I thought I'd give it a shot. I live about 7 minutes from Piedmont Park. I take my dog, Suki, there several times a week to the small dog park, so that would be an option. There is no dog park in my complex but we have voted to install a dog run, which is currently in the works. We do, however, have a nice half acre of fenced and secure green space here to walk leashed pets. If this sounds like a good fit for you please send me a message! My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can suit almost any schedule you might need/want. I am located right next to the Civic Center. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile! - Julie

About Julie H.:

Avid animal lover and rescuer, dubbed the "Patron Saint of Animals" by a close friend.

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

Since birth. I've had pets all my life. I started rescuing and rehoming animals at a very young age. I'd give my life for my pets, that's how dedicated I am to them. They are my children, my family, and the loves of my life. The unconditional love a pet offers is priceless. Rescuing animals is the life accomplishment I'm most proud of.

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

Likes & dislikes of the pet, daily routines of their normal life at home, any medical needs, phobias, dos and don'ts. No breed preferences, all are welcome as long as they are not aggressive toward small dogs and cats.

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

Yes

Are you comfortable administering medication?

Yes

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

All day, 24-7 care from me and their new playmate, Suki :)

If you have a backyard, please describe it.

We have a one acre fenced in park area for walking leashed pets.

Where will my dog sleep?

In my room with Suki and I in my bed or wherever they are comfortable. They will choose whatever they like.

Where will you take my dog on walks? Tell me about it.

I live in a gated townhome community with a secure and safe fenced-in park area.

I am also very close to Piedmont Park and would love to take them to the gated small dog park with Suki for exercise if the owner is comfortable with that.

Julie was very loving to my Emilio, dependable, she took the time out to text me pictures and call to let me know he was fine. I would reccomend her to anyone. I WILL definitely use her again!

Julie adores all animals. We were once roommates and shared a variety of animals including dogs, cats, ferrets and even a pet rat. Julie has always been very concerned about the well being of all the animals. Aside from the essentials like making sure that they are always well fed and medically sound, she cares tremendously about their happiness and comfort. There have been numerous occasions when she has been asked to pet sit for friends and even though she may have had a lot on her plate at the time, her visits with the pets she was sitting, consisted of far more than a quick feeding and a walk. She would also take the time to play with the animals and groom them. If Julie is watching my pets, I can completely relax knowing that they are going to be taken care of as well as, if not better, than they would if they were with me. (Collapse)
