Pet care experience

Treating your pup like family!

I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pup like my own. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just extra cuddles, I make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and always send updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

Julia is so wonderful. Takes great care of our pups and always does what she says she’s going to do. Great communication always! She loves on them and spoils them. We couldn’t t ask for more.

Julia was really great my puppy. She watched her at her house for 4 days, 3 nights and sent me so many wonderful updates. Her communication made it easier to be away from my baby knowing she was in good hands.

Julia did a great job taking care of my dog! I had her do drop ins in the middle of the day while I was working in office. She’s very communicative and flexible. Will definitely book again with her in the future.

Schedule

I recently completed my masters degree and now have a very open schedule, home most of the day. I have a few short weekly commitments (about an hour or two at a time), but otherwise I’m flexible.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard at my house as well as the opportunity to walk at the park not too far from my house! I have two kitties living with me that are used to calm dogs so your baby will always have company if they want. My cats are known to be escape artists so I am very cautious about when, where, and how long doors and windows are open for.

Pets

A typical day

I’d make sure both dogs and cats get plenty of attention and playtime! For dogs, I’d take them on walks, play fetch, or do some tug-of-war to keep them active and happy. For cats, I’d spend time playing with toys like strings or laser pointers, give them cuddles if they want attention, and make sure they’re entertained and comfortable. I like to match their energy — whether that’s playing or just relaxing together.

I’d want to know their routines and personalities — things like feeding schedules, any medications, allergies, or special needs, and how they do around new people or other animals. It’s also helpful to know their favorite toys or activities, any fears or triggers (like loud noises or vacuum cleaners), and what comforts them most so I can keep them happy and relaxed while you’re away.
