I recently wrapped up a 21-year career in surgery and am now fully in my dogs-and-cats-over-humans era. Pet care fits seamlessly into my life right now: it’s what I’m focused on and genuinely love! I’d be delighted to care for your pet so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Sécurité, confiance et environnement
My husband and I provide a single-family, two-story home in a quiet, safe, and cute neighborhood. There are four steps up to the front door, a backyard deck, and a HUGE grassy yard. There’s plenty of space for lounging, exercising, and playing. We are happy to have pets on the sofa, but dogs are not allowed on the bed. We are a smoke, pet, and child-free home. In your home, I’m highly detail-oriented and follow your instructions closely. I ask thoughtful questions upfront so I can care for your pet exactly the way you do, so you can relax and truly enjoy your time away. I also respect your space and privacy, keeping communication intentional and simple while sharing meaningful updates and photos so you know your pet is well cared for and content.

Informations que Judy D. aimerait connaître au sujet de votre animal domestique
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. If your dog is reactive on walks, that must be communicated during a request so I can plan accordingly for walks and/or boarding/daycare services. We live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood, and safety is my top priority. Finally, please provide up-to-date vet information for boardings and day care. I believe in preparation and planning so I can be calm and effective in case of any emergency.

If your dog is a snuggler, that will most certainly be on the agenda! Outside of that, I like to engage with dogs and stimulate them according to their needs. Besides playing fetch or running around in the huge yard, we’ll check out the new smells in my neighborhood and explore the park near my house. NOTE: If your pet needs more than 2 walks/day, there will be an additional service charge of $15/dog, per additional walk each day.

Expérience en matière de services dédiés aux animaux de compagnie
Hi, I’m Judy. I provide structured, high-trust care for well-mannered pets with established routines. 🐾 Since 2003, I’ve been providing intuitive, relationship-based care for dogs while building trusted relationships with the people who love them. I love partnering with local pet families who want more than just a walk or boarding—they want someone who will care for their pets with intention and support their normal routines while they’re away. I grew up in a home with two big dogs and have been caring for dogs ever since. These days, I especially enjoy caring for well-mannered pets with moderate energy and established routines, and building lasting relationships with the families who adore them. My approach is steady and attentive, focused on maintaining the rhythm they already know so they can stay comfortable and content in familiar surroundings. Around here, I’m known as “Auntie Judy,” and I consider it an honor every time a pet runs to greet me like family. It’s one of the greatest compliments I could receive. My goal is simple: to maintain your pet’s normal rhythm so well that your time away feels consistent and comfortable for them—in the best way. And who knows… I just might become your pet’s new favorite human. 😊

Avis
Judy is the person I trust with my dog without hesitation, and I rest easy knowing he's in her hands. I've seen her light up at the sight of many dogs and cats, just from pictures, and quickly fall in love with them as if they were her own when she meets them. Her love for animals comes through in how she cares for them and in her attention to detail to ensure their special needs are met. She is always on time, follows instructions to a T, plays with my dog, and gets him the exercise he needs. She is considerate of other dogs before making introductions. She communicates proactively with updates, photos, and check-ins. I've used her for walks, drop-ins, and boarding, and every time has been great! I especially appreciate how she talks to my dog, greets him when she comes to get him, and says bye when she leaves. She'll often give him a hug before she goes. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family — not just a responsibility — Judy is that person. I'd trust her with any animal, without hesitation.
Judy, or now Aunt Judy has been walking my dog, Loki for almost 9 months. She has followed a Google doc that I wrote for her well before she looked out for Loki to the tea to this very day. For example, just last week she made sure he had water and without her checking it like I mentioned in this Google doc, he would not have had water until I got home that day. She remains detail oriented, communicative, and flexible. All the way down to the small details, like remembering to switch out his leash when it rains to communicating well in advanced when she is unable to watch Loki due to personal travel or other needs, Judy is by far the most thorough dog walker and trustworthy person I could ever imagine to look after my own four legged dog baby. On top of that, she has also looked after my cat when I needed to travel and I’ve been gone for several days Judy all around is a fantastic dog walker, cat sitter, pet Aunt you could ever ask for. 100/10 would absolutely recommend.
