Safety, trust & environment

I do not currently provide boarding in my home, but when you book me to stay with your pets at your home, you can relax and trust that the home and pets you left me in charge of will be in the same condition, if not better, when you return home. And I am always just a call or message away, 24 hours a day.

Information Julia P. would like to know about your pet

All of our animal companions are special and beautiful creatures, and each one comes with their own unique physical and emotional needs. I'm ready to pamper your pets as much as you'll let me, and I'm always just a call or text away if there's anything different or special with your pet that you'd like me to pay extra attention to, whether it be administering medication, or a special diet, I know that each one of them has their own little quirks and big personalities to be discovered and enjoyed, so feel free to share with me any advice that you think would make our time together the best time!

A typical day

There's so many fun things to do with dogs (and kitties too!), and I'm not the type of person who's going to force your dog to do anything they don't want to - but I WILL always try to find a positive alternative to bring up their mood as well as their physical activity, so even if the great outdoors isn't your pets idea of a good time, I'll make it my goal to find out what it is that makes them light up, maybe it’s a puzzle, or maybe a nice cuddle with some scratchings in just the right spot, and be there ready to deploy that special something, because it’s hard enough when mom or dad has to go away, they shouldn’t have to feel lonely too!

Pets

All my love, all my life, for dogs

Pet care experience

I cannot remember a time in my life that didn’t have a dog in it. When you choose to let me love and care for your dog, cat, or other beautiful creature, this is what you can look forward to: an experienced, dedicated, friend for life who’s going to be there for the most important (fur) person in your family! Whether it’s just a walk around the block, company for your dog on date night, or a full-time friend to stay at home with your pets when that important work trip or big vacation comes along, I’ll be there to provide all the care and comfort your pets need, and always with a dose of extra TLC to help make the time away from mom or dad fly by. I’m kind, considerate, and ALWAYS falling in love with another dog. I’ve been a provider through Rover in LA for over 4 years now, I have worked as a kennel attendant for Estrella Veterinary Hospital in OC as well as a shift lead at Petco, which gave me a solid foundation and confidence in most any situation that involves animals. But don’t just take my word for it, let me show you how much love I can give your pets while you’re away. “Dogs are not my whole life, but they do make my life whole.” - Julia Pruitt I live in a studio apartment with my big little husky Kaya, so unfortunately we don't have the space to host your dog here, but when you book annovernight stay in your home with me, you can be assured that when you return, it will be in the same condition or maybe a little tidier than you left it, and there will be a happy and contented animal waiting for you!

Julia was amazing! I was in town for a morning meeting 8-12 and I needed my dog Tig to be entertained for the period as I couldn’t leave him at the hotel alone. They went on a mini hike and visited a cafe and looked at street art and Julia shared pictures all morning. It was clear they were having a good time together and Tig was well cared for. Would absolutely book Julia again - she was a gem! Great communication, and she was flexible with pricing since I needed a weird time coverage.
