Pet care experience

Experienced & adoring pet caregiver

I've taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats since I was about 10 years old. I absolutely adore animals, which has prompted me to frequently volunteer in animal shelters where I walk, bathe and play with dogs, as well as clean their kennel, feed them, and even provide medical care. I've always owned dogs and have frequently watched friends' and family members' animals. I have proficient experience with both puppies and senior dogs. My genuine love for animals moves me to care for your pet as if it were my own.

Julia was awesome with our two big dogs. She spent a week watching them and kept us updated the whole time. She also did a fantastic job with my dog who has seizures and handled it very well when he had one. I will definitely rebook with her!

Julia was amazing at caring for our little pup, Molly. She was responsible, caring and I could tell my Molly girl loved her time with Julia. She was wagging her tail so much and I look forward to using Julia again!

Julia is the most empathetic, careful, and loving dog sitter and walker I have ever had. Her experience volunteering in shelters in the virgin islands gave her a navigation with diverse breeds like I have never seen. She is extremely prompt, creates relationships with my pups, and leaves the dogs almost sad when she has to leave for the day. She is the biggest dog lover, with the biggest heart and the best cheeky grin across her face. Your doggies will love her!!

I highly recommend Julia! She truly enjoys being with animals and provides quality care. She is reliable, attentive and very respectful of my wishes. I know when my pets are with her they are not only looked after but well loved which gives me great comfort.

Schedule

My partner and I care for animals together. So between the two of us, there is almost always someone available to walk, play with, and generally care for your pet. I'm a strong believer in frequent potty breaks for dogs and frequent playtime/stimulation if they're energetic and need more activity. I am happy to accommodate in whatever ways necessary to make sure your animal is happy and well taken care of!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very patient and generous with love and cuddles. I understand it can be stressful for pets to be away from their families and homes, so I always go the extra mile to make sure they feel comfortable and loved while always from their favorite humans!

A typical day

I love being outdoors and exploring new places. I'd love to take your dog on new walks, to new parks, and just generally ensure that they're being stimulated mentally and physically with fun new smells and games. I believe it's really important to ensure an animal feels safe and comfortable. I accomplish this in many ways ranging from having calm but playful energy around your animal to taking my time to allow your animal to get to know me and ultimately trust and love me :)
