Pet care experience

Trusted, Loving Pet Care

I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. I grew up fostering dogs and living in a home full of pets of all types, so reading animal behavior and meeting individual needs comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs of my own—one senior dog who’s in excellent shape and another with diabetes—so I’m extremely comfortable with special care routines, medications, feeding schedules, and detailed instructions. I’m very attentive, organized, and consistent when it comes to pet care. I understand how important routine, patience, and calm energy are—especially for senior pets, anxious pets, or those with medical needs. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared-for at all times. Whether your pet needs structured exercise to burn off energy, gentle walks, playtime, or extra cuddles and reassurance, I tailor care to what helps them feel happiest and most comfortable. You can trust that your pet will receive the same level of care, attention, and love that I expect for my own

Dog Walking • Mar 10, 2026

This was our first time hiring a dog walker and we had a wonderful experience. Julia was reliable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Our dog Misty was happy and well cared for, and it was such a comfort knowing she was getting her walks and attention while we were away. Julia was trusted with access to our home while no one was there and handled everything responsibly and respectfully. We also appreciated the updates and communication, which gave us real peace of mind knowing both our dog and home were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Julia and would happily book her again.

My pups' stay with Julia went perfectly. I have 2 senior dogs and felt that Julia took into consideration their routines and limitations very well. They were happy, comfortable, and well-cared for, and I loved receiving pictures of them regularly. I wouldn't hesitate to call upon Julia again, when they need a home away from home!

Schedule

I’m currently home full-time, which allows me to provide a very hands-on level of care throughout the day. Pets are never left alone for long periods and I’m able to accommodate regular walks, playtime, feedings, medications, and individualized routines. Starting toward the end of March, I expect to return to the office a few days per week. Even then, pet care will remain a priority, with mornings, evenings, and consistent routines fully maintained. I’m careful to only accept bookings that fit my schedule so every pet receives the attention, supervision, and care they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced yard and a calm, structured home environment. I also have two friendly, well-socialized dogs, and all interactions are always supervised. I’m experienced with introducing pets slowly and can easily keep dogs and cats separated or crate them if needed to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. I’m very attentive to routines, boundaries, and individual needs—especially for senior pets, pets with medical needs, or those who prefer a quieter setting. I’m happy to follow any specific care instructions, including feeding schedules, medication routines, crate use, or solo time. I’m flexible and can care for pets either in my home or in the client’s home, depending on what works best for your pet and your comfort level.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day is calm, loving, and tailored to your pet’s needs. We start with morning walks or playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention, followed by enrichment activities, outdoor time, and relaxed downtime. I follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home while you’re away.💛

To provide the highest level of care, I ask that you share your pet’s routine in advance, including feeding schedules, medications, medical conditions, and any special instructions. Insight into temperament, preferences, triggers, leash behavior, and household rules is also appreciated. Clear communication allows me to deliver calm, personalized, and dependable care while you’re away.
