Pet care experience
Huge animal lover. Husband works from home so at least one of us is always home for constant care & supervision. Completed standard & Family Obedience Training w our borador, Noire (57lbs collie/lab). Have been pet sitting (feed, walk. Supervised yard time, cuddles) for 6 years. Active volunteer with local dog rescue, Paws for Life K9 Rescue. My husband & I foster when we can. Comfortable with all size cats & dogs. Fenced in backyard, a private room upstairs for overnight guests, plenty of toys & peanut butter to share. Baby gates for safety. Our dog & cats have been raised together so they are completely comfortable with other dogs /cats of all sizes. We've hosted teacup Yorkies to Danes & mastiffs.
Reviews
Julia really helped us last minute - I know Gus is in great hands.
Julia was willing to take a very late/last minute request. Gus loves walking with her.
Julia is so amazing! I had a last minute ask and she helped out. She sent so many fun pictures.
My toy poodle rescue is so afraid of everyone, but such a sweet little guy. Julia was so patient and wonderful with him, gave him him lots of loving attention, and made him completely comfortable with her. He clearly bonded with her, and that is a huge achievement. She is a wonderful pet sitter who has a special connection with animals.
