Information Julia D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dogs have any allergies or behavioral problems ahead of time. Additionally, share any special routines or preferences they have so I can ensure their comfort and happiness.

A typical day

I always aim to stick to your dog's usual routine to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. For super active dogs, I provide 1-4 walks a day, tailored to their energy level. Each walk is filled with fun activities like playing fetch, exploring new trails, and socializing with other dogs at the park. When we're at home, I engage them with interactive toys, training exercises, and plenty of cuddle time. Your dog will receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention throughout the day.

As a former 4-H participant, I not only showed dogs but also engaged in comprehensive animal care and training programs. This background has equipped me with the skills to handle pets with patience, precision, and empathy. Whether your furry friend is a high-energy puppy or a senior dog with special needs, I am adept at creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for them.

Julia was absolutely a dream! She took such incredible care of our Weimaraner, Mozzie. Great communication, great photos and she made sure he had his own vacation while we were away! 10/10 and will rebook again!

My two pups enjoyed their time and when we came to pick them up they wanted to go back with her to stay! If that's not a testament to how well my fur babies were taken care of, I don't know what else could be

Julia did a wonderful job caring for my two cats for five days. She’s very knowledgeable about cat behavior and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. She was also kind, flexible, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely book her again!
