Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. In their home, I try to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including their feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions I receive from their owner. I make sure to give them lots of attention, exercise, and cuddles while also keeping the owners home clean and secure. My goal is to help all fur babies feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away!

Information Julia G. would like to know about your pet

Before watching a pet, I think it’s important to know their daily routine, energy level, personality, and if they have any medical needs or special instructions. I also like to know how they interact with new people, other animals, and if they have any fears or behaviors I should be aware of so I can make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible.

A typical day

A typical day with me includes lots of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles! I love keeping pets active and happy, whether that’s going on walks, playing fetch, spending time outside, or just relaxing with them and giving them company. I always make sure pets stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I have two dogs of my own and have experience dogsitting multiple dogs at once, including a 15-year-old dog with severe arthritis, so I understand the patience and gentle care senior dogs need. I’m extremely reliable, active, and will always make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away!

Julia took care of my 3 dogs, two special needs puppies that are hearing and vision impaired and my older dog. She did an amazing job with my challenging at times dogs. She is reliable, trustworthy and was so kind and loving to my dogs. She sent messages and photos updating me after each visit. One of my puppies is very anxious and she was so patient with her. So lucky to have found Julia! We were able to go on vacation knowing our dogs were in her good care!

Julia has been wonderful! Really great with my young pup who can be difficult to handle at times, but he loves her! Julia is super responsive, always on time, and more than willing to assist us even if an issue arises last second. I highly recommend her services!

Julia did a great job with Oakley! She took for a nice long walks and he seemed super happy in the pictures she shared. She had good communication and I would definitely used her again.
