Pet care experience
Excited to meet your furbaby :)
Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. In addition to pet sitting, I foster both dogs and cats here in D.C. through two local organizations, which has given me hands-on experience with pets of all kinds—puppies and kittens, seniors, animals needing daily medication, and those with unique behavioral needs. Whether it’s walking two Great Danes at once, keeping up with high-energy pups, or providing gentle care for older cats and dogs, I approach every pet with patience, compassion, and plenty of love. I also know how important trust is, I have strong relationships with many families I’ve worked with over the years, and I’m happy to provide references upon request! When I’m not working in consulting or coaching F45, I love filling my free time by spending it with animals. My goal is to give your pet the same level of care, attention, and affection they get from you. Availability: • Weekdays: 6–11am and 5–10pm (midday potty breaks or walks upon request) • Weekends: Flexible, anytime I’d love to meet your furry family member and give them a safe, fun, and loving experience. Expect lots of photos while you’re away :)

Safety, trust & environment
It depends on the energy of the dog. I do not have a yard but I am close to many parks for dogs and have many toys for cats.
Ratings and reviews
Lula's bestie!
Julia is amazing!! She not only walks Lula, but also provides enrichment! Lula came back from just a 30 min walk, pewped! Already looking to book Julia again for next week.
Julia was wonderful with my dog Crosby! She watched him for a week and took him on long walks and let him run around the baseball field near my apartment. She left my apartment impeccably clean as well! I am so happy to find someone that I trust in my apartment and with my dog for longer periods of time as I travel for work. I will definitely use her in the future! Thank you Julia!
All I can say is, if you want a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter for your pets, then look no further! Julia puts the needs of your pets first and always makes sure to keep you updated while helping you, whether it’s for overnight care or just daily walks/visits. She puts quality of care and making sure you have peace of mind before anything and i can guarantee if you use her services, you’ll be blown away with her professionalism and easy going nature. Julia always treats your pets as if she’d treat her own.. SPOILED ROTTEN!!
Julia is an outstanding person and an excellent and reliable dog walker and dog sitter. We have known Julia for almost three years . We have allowed her to live in our house, taking care of our dog while we are on extended vacations. She has also taken our dog for days to her apartment while we are gone. Julia is 100% reliable and honest. She has trained our dog to be more responsive to commands and to get over fears. Our hound rescue loves Julia and is totally happy being with her. Whoever hires Julia will be completely satisfied.
