All furry companions welcome!
Pet care experience
I'm a former farm girl and lifelong animal-lover who will care for your furry companion as if they were part of my own family. I have training in dog care from the SPCA along with many years of sitting and walking experience. Happy to cater walks and play time to your dog's needs - be it a lazy cuddle on the couch or an energetic run through the park. Each dog is special and I will treat them as such. I work from home and have very flexible availability to suit your needs. So be it an early morning swim and run in the fields or a leisurely stroll down the lane, your dog will have my full attention and care during our time together.
Reviews
Julia was a great sitter. She spent tons of time with our pup, treated our home with respect, and sent lots of super cute photos.
Julia was responsive, responsible, and extremely easy to work with. She stayed at our place for more than two weeks and left the pets healthy and happy and our apartment surprisingly clean. We would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a cat or dog sitter.
Julia took great care of our two old lady cats and our apartment while we were away for a couple weeks. It’s always nerve wracking to leave them, but she put us at ease. Would be happy to work with Julia again and recommend her highly.
Julia is excellent. Very thoughtful and takes wonderful care of our 6 month old puppy. Super responsive and provides frequent updates. Makes sure our dog gets plenty of play, walks and snuggles, and takes great care of our home as well. Would highly highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
I will do my best to keep them to their usual schedule to make the transition as easy for them as possible. There is no such thing as too detailed instructions! :)
Information Julia H. would like to know about your pet
It's important to know your pet's energy levels and if they have any medical conditions to be aware of. I will also need to know their level of socialization and what may trigger anxious or reactive behaviors. All dogs are welcome from tea cups to Great Danes.
A typical day
We can go walking or running through local parks or for an adventure along the waterfront. Frisbee and fetch are always on the menu as well as tug-of-war and toss with trusted (and well-loved) toys. Ear and tummy scratches are to be expected. Kitties will be given as much love and distance as they like. There will be no hurt feelings for extra aloofness. And if someone likes to make cameos on Zoom calls, the more the merrier!

Availability
I work remotely full-time and so will be on call for whatever your four-legged friend needs. Their routine will become my routine during my stay.
