Pet care experience

Wags to Whiskers

Hello, I'm Julia! I'm thrilled at the prospect of caring for your furry companions. My love for animals spans from my childhood days when I took care of my toy poodle, Lucky, to currently confidently walking all four legged dog breeds. Dog-sitting experiences have been a woofing good time for me, and I'm up for various activities like trips to the dog beach, visits to the dog park, or engaging in a spirited game of tug-of-war. For those with special needs, I'm equipped to administer diabetic shots to dogs. My dedication extends beyond personal pets—I've volunteered as an animal foster parent at Ruby Whisker's Animal Shelter and contributed as a dog walker and cat cage cleaner at Heartland Animal Shelter. I also have been a dog walker for 15+ years. I'm genuinely excited to meet your furry family members and you!

Julia did an excellent job caring for our two pitty mixes while staying in our home for a week. She managed our dog’s quirks with patience and professionalism. We returned to happy dogs and a well-kept home. Highly recommend.

Julia was a pleasure to work with and did a great job taking care of our two dogs and watching over our home. Definitely recommend Julia and look forward to booking her services again when we need to leave town and need someone to watch over our canine pals.

Julia stayed at my house with my dog for a week while I was on a cruise. She was attentive, sending me texts about my dog for the week I was gone. She was friendly, caring, and followed my directions for my picky dog. I would recommend Julia with a full five stars and will be using her again in the future!

This was our first time using a pet sitter and we were very happy with Julia! Our animals were very comfortable with her and we felt relaxed on our vacation knowing she was there watching them. We got regular updates. We would book with Julia again! We have already recommended her to our family.

I would love to know about your pet before sitting him or her this way I can know what your pet likes and how I can make him or her the happiest while you are away. I have no breed preferences. I am also open to various types of animals besides cats and dogs. I have watched bearded dragons, chickens, hedgehog, chinchilla, etc. I am also up to learning how to take care of a new pet that I haven't taken care of before, just ask me!
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.
