Availability
I'm currently job searching for an additional part-time role to do with Rover, so my availability is pretty open right now for dog walking, dog sitting, etc. Before I do any caretaking for your dog, I do require meeting the dog(s) with the owner present on a separate day to make sure the dog is familiar and comfortable with me before I come over to take care of the dog(s).

Safety, trust & environment
When I come over to your house to either walk or dog sit, I will first make sure I read all instructions carefully for what the pet owner wants & needs for their pup. Then, I will walk/dog-sit with them and send you some pictures of your pet to give you updates on how they are doing. I love it when people send me pictures/updates while I'm away from my dog, because it makes me feel secure knowing they are living well. Please let me know if you would like this or prefer not. Lastly, I will give them some pets and cuddles as desired and some play time so they have some enrichment time while I'm over. And of course, will make sure to lock up the house as instructed by the pet owner.
Information Julia M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any medicines, food needs, behavioral needs and overall preferences that you have for taking the best care of your pup. Additionally, please provide to me your veterinarian's name and contact information as a safety measure. Your pup's wellness and your comfort are my #1 priority!
A typical day
If I'm walking with your dog, I love to give them time to sniff and explore outside in the sun. If I'm dropping in to your house for a visit I will get some toys out to play, throw a ball, whatever makes them feel excited! If you have a fenced yard, I will let them out in the back to get some sun and play. Of course they will get lots of pets from me and if they have a favorite treat that the owner is ok with me giving, I will also give them one of those! If the pup is wanting to relax rather than play, I'll sit with them and give all the cuddles as desired.

Pet care experience
My pet care experience includes not only caretaking for my own dog and family friend's dogs over the years, but I also worked for a pet boarding and daycare facility for 2 years. This exposed me to knowledge about dog behavior, caretaking, playtime, and important details like specific needs of medicine and feeding methods for each dog in the facility of roughly 130 dogs. Additionally, my pup Bella has had a lifelong experience of many diagnoses such as mega-esophagus, acid reflux, and environmental allergies which have all required very specific feedings and medicines for her. Safe to say after all of these formative experiences, I'm very attentive to all specifics that your pup needs while you are away and happy to do it!! I'm a lifelong animal lover and I love to treat my pup like royalty (as shown in my pictures), because she is one of the most important things in my life. I will treat your pup with the same love and care as my own because they deserve it <3
Reviews
I'm very happy when Julia is available to take care of our Golden, Bella! Julia is very conscientious especially with the special food prep and feeding instructions we give her to properly handle Bella's megaesophagus syndrome. It takes a lot of extra effort! She is also great to give her regular walks and occasional baths and the pics she sends while she looks after her are GREAT!! Thanks Julia!
Julia is an animal lover and all around great human! She is so responsible and I trust her with my precious fur baby. She goes above and beyond for her own pup and she treats others just the same.
I highly recommend Julia as a pet sitter on Rover! She has watched my cat several times, and I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s with her. She’s incredibly reliable, gentle, and attentive, and she goes out of her way to make sure he’s comfortable and happy. And I love that she sends regular photo updates if I request them :) If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like their own, Julia is the perfect choice!
