Julia can care for
Availability
I work fully remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Because I can easily work from different locations, in-home sitting fits naturally into my routine—I’m able to be present with your doggo, follow their schedule, and provide companionship without interruptions.

About Julia D.

Safety, trust & environment
You can expect me to be a discreet and respectful guest in your home, and to follow all household rules and routines while in your space. From feeding and walks to playtime and companionship, I provide thoughtful and consistent care so your dog feels safe and loved while you’re away. I also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing!
Information Julia D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know about any routines your doggo might have, especially strict schedule requirements (medications, food, exercise, bedtime etc.), so we can ensure a good fit of my work/life schedule with theirs! Any specific behavioural needs that I should account for, please signal in advance as well. For house sitting, let me know where your dog sleeps.
A typical day
I do my best to tailor to each dog and their parents’ preference, and I’m happy to take things at whatever pace their energy level demands. For those who need it, I can provide 3 walks per day (morning, mid-day, evening), including one longer one or an extended play outside. I love taking dog friends on adventures to the beach, on walks in nature, or to the park for a good game of fetch. I am happy to practice/work on any skills or tricks they might know to help keep their mind stimulated.

Reliable care, endless tail wags
Pet care experience
I have had a deep love of dogs for as long as I can remember. Yes, I was that child who read dog encyclopaedias for fun, and who loved spending time with friends' dogs just as much as I enjoyed hanging out with the friends XD To this day, there are few things that bring me more joy than spending time with my favourite kind of furry four-legged friend! While I (sadly) have not yet been able to have a dog of my own, I've been very fortunate to look after others' dogs on countless occasions over the years, including multi-day boarding in my own home and house sitting at others'. I have cared for both adult and senior dogs, as well as dogs with special needs. I always do my utmost to meet the needs of each dog, whatever they may be, and to respect any training and routines to help ensure the most consistent experience possible. I am patient, loving, and enthusiastic with every dog I meet, and I can't wait to meet yours!
Reviews
Julia was great, and helped me out with a short notice booking when my regular walker wasn’t available. She was very patient and understanding of my shy rescue pup who sometimes needs a few minutes to get comfortable around someone new. Julia was super easy to communicate with and sent me updates and photos so I felt very at ease :) I’ll definitely book with her in the future! Thanks again :)
Julia dog sat in our home for the day, and we were extremely happy with her service. Ginger can be very picky and cautious with new people, but the moment Julia walked through the door, Ginger went straight to her with her tail wagging — which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the day, Julia kept us updated with messages and photos, letting us know how things were going, whether Ginger had eaten all her food, and how she was doing overall. It was very reassuring to know Ginger was being so well cared for and getting lots of attention. Julia was kind, attentive, communicative, and clearly very comfortable with dogs. Ginger seemed completely relaxed and happy with her, which says a lot. We would absolutely hire Julia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Julia was amazing with the girls. I had unfortunately entered the wrong address, and she still offered to bike to our new location. This was not expected as it was my mistake, but it was very appreciated. She did a great job keeping our anxious dogs distracted and we would ask her to watch the dogs again ❤️
Julia is prompt, accommodating, and communicates well. She has a calm demeanor that puts my people averse Husky/Shepherd at ease. He always comes home bouncing and happy after time spent with her.
