Safety, trust & environment

In your home I am happy to take dogs out for potty and stretch breaks, play time, and active training. I can provide basic training and exercise in the form of play and conditioning exercises in your home as well! Treats, pets, and praise abound as we have fun and burn off that extra energy. At home I have a friendly border Aussie, and two indoor cats. There is a fully fenced backyard, hundreds of tennis balls, and a wading pool in the summer. I can provide a guest crate in the house as needed.

Information Julia M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special things I can do to ensure your dog feels as safe and comfortable as possible in my care! I use forearm crutches or a wheelchair full time, but I'm sturdier than I look! I do prefer to work with dogs who will not excessively jump on standing humans or rush doors as I am a little slower to get in. Please let me know if your home has more than a couple stairs to enter or navigate so I can get more information from you on whether we are a good accessible fit.

A typical day

I love to work on all kinds of training with your dogs, from reinforcing the basics, polite leash walking and house manners, to advanced tricks, and light conditioning exercises. I am happy to set up and supervise safe food puzzles, play fetch, tug, and of course get in the best belly rubs.

Puppy and training enthusiast!

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner for 5 years now, but animals have always played an important role in my life. In the last 3 years I have fostered both puppies and adult dogs, participated in training and competing in multiple dog sports such as flyball and agility, and helped to raise and train numerous puppies for friends and teammates.

Julia took such good care of our cats. She was available for a fairly last minute need which we couldn’t have been more grateful for. We’d definitely have her come back!! She gave us great check ins, was very responsive, and sent us such cute photos of our cats while we were away. Highly recommend her.

Julia was great!! I reached out to her last minute when our plans changed. She was flexible and attentive to our dog and cats. She had open communication and sent a lot of pictures. I would have her watch our critters again in a heartbeat!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
