Your Pet’s New Favorite Sitter

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and reliable pet sitter who genuinely loves animals. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I make it my priority to give them plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply some company and cuddles, I’m happy to help! I’ll follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet like they’re part of my own family. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾

Julia is an amazing pet sitter and is one of the only people I trust to watch my rescue dog, Remy! He can be very shy and skiddish, but warmed up to Julia immediately. She is reliable, caring, and incredibly attentive to my fur baby’s needs. She has always treated my baby like her own, and I never have to worry when Remy is with her. I would absolutely recommend Julia to anyone that is looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!

Julia has lovingly cared for our family dogs for over 15-years. She is incredibly dependable, attentive, and experienced, especially with senior dogs and pets who require extra patience and specialized care. She has confidently managed medications, strict medical schedules, special diets, bathing, overnight stays, and dogs with anxiety. Julia treats every dog as if they were her own and always makes sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Knowing our pets are in her care gives us complete peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and highly capable pet sitter!

Schedule

I currently work from home, so I’m home most of the time and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be readily available and accommodate you and your pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m pretty flexible with dates and scheduling, so just let me know what days you’re thinking, and we can find something that works!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a spacious, clean, pet-safe, and fully fenced patio where your pet can safely enjoy some fresh air and outdoor time. I’m also happy to come to your home if that’s more comfortable or convenient for you and your pet. I’m flexible and always happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs!

A typical day

A typical day with your dog is centered around their comfort, routine, and individual needs. We’ll start the day with a potty break and some time on my spacious, clean, pet-safe, fully fenced patio for fresh air and outdoor play. Throughout the day, I’ll provide plenty of attention, companionship, and age-appropriate exercise, whether that means walks, playtime, or relaxing together. I’ll follow your dog’s usual feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule as closely as possible and make sure they have plenty of fresh water and a comfortable place to rest. I’m also happy to care for your dog in your home if that’s more familiar and convenient for them. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Every dog is different, and I’m happy to accommodate special needs, unique routines, and individual behaviors. Whether your dog is shy, anxious, energetic, reactive, needs extra patience, or simply has a specific routine they’re used to, I’ll take the time to understand what makes them comfortable and help them feel safe and cared for. Please feel free to let me know about any special needs, medications, fears, triggers, or behaviors ahead of time. The more I know about your pet, the better I can provide personalized care and make their time with me as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
