I'm a full time student, however I always have breaks in between my classes. During these, I can make visits to pets and walk them, and I'm usually free all day on weekends.

Safety, trust & environment
I plan to follow the policies of each individual client in their homes. I want to learn each pet's favorite places around the house and where they feel more comfortable, where they like to play, etc.
Home
Information Julia A. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your dog had any special needs, or preferences in terms of eating. Also, I would like to know specific fears to watch out for (such as thunderstorms or fireworks - one of the dogs I grew up with was super scared of them, so I would make sure I stayed close to him to calm him down).
A typical day
I will take them on walks around parks and find a dog park where I could let them loose a little, if the owner says that's okay. I will also play catch with the dogs that like that too.

Pet care experience
I grew up with 4 dogs who were the best siblings I could ask for. I always helped with feeding, bathing, walking, and keeping them entertained, including caring for our anxious dog who needed more attention. I was always the happiest when my parents allowed them to sleep with me. I moved to the US for college, and had to leave them with my parents in Brazil. They were definitely one of the hardest parts to leave behind and I miss them so so much. This is the first time I don't live with a dog, and I miss being around them, so I thought working with Rover was a great idea for me! I've never had a cat, but family and friends around me have, so I would take care of them often.
Reviews
Julia was amazing! She agreed to watch our pup for a long holiday weekend with very little notice. She went out of her way to make sure he had a great time, especially in the midst of a heatwave when she took it upon herself to take our pup swimming (checking in beforehand to make sure it was alright with us). She really went above and beyond. She's great at communicating and our pup loved her! Will def rebook.
We had a pretty last minute booking for a fairly extended stay but Julia was very amenable and provided quick turnaround. She has a roommate who shared care duties. Rocky seemed to like both of them a lot. Because it was a long stay some of it was in her home and some in my home.
I had such a wonderful experience with Julia! From the very beginning, she was very professional, responsive, and genuinely caring. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in such loving and capable hands on such short notice. Julia kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which I truly appreciated. My dog looked so happy, relaxed and well cared for the entire time. It was so clear that Julia treated her like apart of her own family. I would absolutely book Julia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my girl:)
Julia took great care of Brooklyn on short notice! I would definitely book with Julia again.
