Al's Furry Pals

Pet care experience

One thing I would like to cover beforehand is that I do take public transit. This includes Trimet, Wes, C-Tran, YCTA. I do not take the 1X or 2X and do not go to Salem. I am willing to go outside my provided area so long as the transit systems runs within walking distance (about 1.5-2 miles) and I can make it there and back depending on scheduled route times. Over the years, I have had many wonderful opportunities to work with and help so many kinds of animals! I've lived with dogs and cats, and have worked with and lived with a number of other animals, of all shapes and size. I have worked at the Beaverton Farmers Market at Sit N' Stay for 8 summers ('13-'19 and again '22 after reopening after quarantine) and loved to see all our regulars and new commers! I have worked with my friend in raising 2 Service Dogs and volunteered at the Tigard Animal Hospital in the summer of 2005 and 2007. I have a great base of general knowledge and truly enjoy what I do. I would be delighted to watch your fur babies (and others) in your home. I make every effort to keep you up to date on how your fuzzy family members are doing by offering photo and text updates. (Currently I am not yet vaxxed for COVID but I do intend to be. I will update this once I am.)

Julia is a gem! She was an amazing companion and guardian for our dog while we were gone for a week. Our dog is unsure of new people and Julia came to our home for a meet and greet, not once, but twice before our trip. He took a little bit to warm up to her, but was cuddling up with her after she gained his trust, which is not easy. One might say she is a dog whisperer. She went above and beyond (even bringing treats and a toy for Murray), and left the house just as she found it, even cleaner. Julia was great at communicating and sharing pictures while we were away. She is very flexible and patient. We highly recommend Julia.

Our pups and home were well-cared for, and we felt totally at ease being out of town. It was great getting regular updates and pics. Very highly recommended!!

The house sitting was great! I got photo updates on how Sylvester was doing each day. Felt great knowing my house and cat were taken care of so well. Would book again.

Information Julia M. would like to know about your pet

Pleas let me know about any medications, physical assistance needs, or behavioral issues. I can do most oral medication but I cannot do injections. I have experience with territorial aggression, fear aggression, general fear, nightmares, seizures and more. Please, let me know if there are warning signs that are unusual or unique to your animal.

A typical day

I enjoy playing with dogs, keeping them busy and their mind working, and doing a few basic commands with them. I enjoy keeping them company and helping them be happy while your away. Animals in general are wonderful, in my opinion, and I love seeing them happy.
