Pet care experience

Let’s have a pawsitive time!

Hello!! My name is Julia I’m 23 and I love animals. Ever since I was little I’ve always had a special interest in nature and animas especially cats! One of my favorite childhood memories is rescuing feral kittens in my neighborhood and finding homes for them. In my teens years I started dog and cat sitting for friends and family and ever cared for horses and rabbits in my high schools FFA.

When staying with a pet I like to follow a schedule for potty and feeding times since familiar routines can calm pets that might be anxious around new people :)

House Sitting • Sep 04, 2026

Julia is amazing. She's taken our older dog on walks and she's housesat for us when we were out of town for more than a week. Our dog was so calm and happy when we came home from our trip-- it was clear that Julia made him feel so comfortable. And our house was just as we had left it. Julia meets our dog just where he is: when she saw that he didn't want to go far on walks anymore, she went at his pace and just stayed with him, showing more care and patience than we're often able to bring ourselves. She is a gentle and caring soul and we feel so lucky to have had her help!

Julia has exceeded my expectations with my fur baby, Lilo. I appreciated all the photos that showed consistency in love and affection, and even offering to swing by and check on Lilo on off days. 10/10 recommend! 100% will rebook Julia in the future.

Not only was Julia very kind, but she did a fantastic job looking after my cat!! Will definitely book with her again when I get the chance.

Julia was absolutely wonderful with my pooch! My pup took to her right away. She was very communicative and flexible with accommodating my last minute requests. And with each walk I received pics and my pup couldn’t have looked happier! 😊

Julia is top notch. She was fabulous with my anxious mess of a dog. I would not hesitate to reach out again should the need arise.
