Julia was great! Sunny had a great time staying with her family and didn’t want to come home 😉

Hunter clearly enjoyed his stay with Julia and her family. My kids and I appreciated that he was a part of a family away from home. Thank you!

Drop-In Visits • Dec 16, 2025

Julia took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were out of the country. She visited them three times every day and made sure that all of their needs were met. Julia is also very good at responding to messages promptly. We never worried about anything at home during our trip.

Julia is the best — shows up on time, communicates well but doesn’t bombard you, and my dog loves her

I have a huge yard for the dogs to play in. We also have a great neighborhood for walking in. If it is really nice day, we can even go to the canal path and go for a walk. I have tons of toys at the house and will give your dog lots of treats (within reason/your permission) and belly rubs. Everyone in the household is a dog lover.
