Information Julia K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what your pet likes to do. If they enjoy walks or would rather just lay on the couch. Do they like to play fetch or just remove the stuffing from a toy. I am very flexible with breeds. I am partial to the large breeds though.

A typical day

Walking, lots of walking. I have one park down the street from my home and I am very close to Forest Park. They also have a huge fenced in backyard to run in.

25 years professional animal care!

Pet care experience

I have been passionate about pet care since I was a child. I have 25 years of professional experience with animals. I work with animals on a daily basis still! I have even spoken in the field at colleges, training classes and have taught fellow colleagues. Not having a pet of my own right now I thought that I would fill the gap with yours.

Julia took great care of our dog. It was the longest we’ve been away from him. Julia sent pictures and left us at ease knowing he was ok.

Julia is always our go to for dog sitting. She’s kind, patient with our fussy pup and communicates through out the entire stay. She’s a gem!

Julia was wonderful. She took great care of my old dog including giving him meds 5x per day. I’ll definitely rebook with her in the future.

Amazing! So grateful for a safe space to bring my pup while I was away. Responsive, supportive, answered any questions I had, and cared for my pup very well and very understanding/knowledgeable. Highly recommend and would definitely book again. Thank you Julia 🐾

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
