Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable care, endless tail wags
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! Note: I am allergic to cats and have very little experience caring for them. For this reason, I don't typically accept overnight housesitting requests for homes where cats live.
Qualifications
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!
Ratings and reviews
Since our first introductory meeting, Julia has seemed to be a very responsible, serious, and sweet girl. She came to stay with our beloved Cleo for 5 days, and the minute I left, I was assured that my dog was in good hands. She provided daily information on how the day was going and was always available to answer any questions I had. Cleo had a great time; Julia made sure that Cleo could keep up with her daily routine, and upon our return, Cleo showed clear affection and attachment to her. I will definitely contact her for future house-sitting or walks.
Julia has been amazing with Maya! She is on time, Maya is always so excited to see her, and communications have been seamless!
Julia looked after our 2 dogs for 6 nights. Everything was in order on our return and the dogs were fine. Julia responded quickly when I texted to check on how they were doing. I would certainly recommend this personable young woman.
Julia was a lifesaver - she was able to help out with a whole bunch of dog walks on short notice after my partner injured herself. As always, super punctual, greta communication, and very attentive to Kobi. Very grateful for her help :)
Julia was so great with Mila and her reactivity on leash. She asked thoughtful questions to fully understand Mila’s needs. She took care of my home and pup as if they were her own. Amazing sitter that I’d happily book again.
Great communication, friendly, and overall great with a pup that can sometimes be standoffish with strangers. We definitely hope to have Julia back for more walks and pet sitting!

Schedule
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.

- 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.
