Pet care experience

Pet sitting with a whole Lotta love

I have been a dog owner for 16 years but currently without pets. We had two dogs, Peanut, a rescued Beagle mix who we lost in 2019 at the age of 14. And Cassie who we just lost this year on new years day 2023. She would've been 15 in June.😭. I have such a love for dogs but we are still healing and not ready for a permanent addition. I thought what a fun way to fill the void in my heart and maybe help other families or people in need of some pet care.

Julia and her family were amazing with our senior granny girl! They gave her lots of snuggles and the attention she needed while we were out of town. I will absolutely be using her again!

Julia was absolutely amazing with our dog Koda! She was very flexible with our schedule and amazing with communication. She sent several photo/video updates over his two night stay, and he seemed quite happy when we picked him up! Overall amazing experience with an amazing sitter, we will definitely reach out if/when we need boarding again!

We recently entrusted our dog, Rose, to the care of Julia and her family, and we couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience. From the moment we met Julia and her family, their genuine love for animals and attention to detail were evident. Throughout Rose's stay, Julia provided regular updates, pictures, and videos, reassuring us that she was in good hands. Their home is well-equipped and welcoming, creating a stress-free environment for pets. We noticed how Rose was comfortable, which speaks volumes about the quality of care she received. We highly recommend Julia's services to anyone seeking a caring and reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again in the future.

I cannot say enough good things about Julia. This is my first time using Rover and I was so nervous leaving my dog with someone I didn’t personally know but Julia put my mind at ease immediately. She truly loves the animals she takes care of - she’s thoughtful and so kind, she even put a little step stool in front of the window so my dog could see out of it. She sent me pictures and videos multiple times a day without me even asking. She took her on walks each day and played with her and brushed her. She was also flexible - we had to rearrange our dates twice due to flight changes and she accommodated us with grace. She is TRULY the best and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. Thank you Julia!!!

Julia was GREAT with my Princess. I was very comfortable with her, and able to focus on work knowing she was in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

Since we are previous dog owners we are no stranger to dog behavior. We allow them to set on the furniture and roam where they please unless you'd prefer them not to. We have over an acre backyard. It is not fenced however. Our dogs wete yard trained but if you're dog needs to stay on a leash we have no problem walking them. We also live quite close to a dog park and could take trips there for free running and playing. I take pet care very seriously and understand the love we have for our pets. I would never ever take that seriousness for granted.

A typical day

We have a dog park close by. We also have a huge backyard that's perfect for a game of fetch if your pet has good recall. We live in a very residential area so walks around the block are great too.
