Animal Lover, Former Dog Trainer
Pet care experience
During grad school I worked as a certified dog trainer. I'm an animal lover, and have had pets and helped to care for them for my entire life. I have a Jack Russell/chihuahua mix and a black cat at home. I'm really looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful furry friends!
Reviews
Once again, Julia was fantastic! The house was immaculate, Cous was happy and I didn’t worry a bit while away- Julia checked in to make sure the care needs were still the same and sent photos and updates. We love Julia!
Julia was fantastic! This was our first time with her, and the first time leaving my furbaby at home instead of boarding him elsewhere. She arranged a meet and greet, and bonded with him instantly- I could tell she "got" him right away. She was asked questions, took detailed notes, and was prompt and courteous every time we communicated, While we were away, she checked in frequently with photos and updates. She took great care of the house as I would want. It was so easy to come home and have the house in order and pup calm and happy. I will definitely use her again!
Julia was really awesome!! Our two pups took to her instantly. Our older puppy usually isn’t very affectionate at first but she was already giving her licks and rolling over for belly rubs within the first few minutes of meeting her. We got photos and communication all throughout her stay. She’s really knowledgeable about dogs and you can tell she just really genuinely loves dogs.
Honestly, I can't say enough about Julia. She came over 2 times just meet us and then the puppy once we got her. She sent me daily photos and a video or 2 while we were away. I came home my house was clean and my puppy was happy and healthy! It was great knowing that someone was also in the house while we were away. Already spoke to her about our next trip away!

Availability
I'm currently transitioning to a new job (I'm a speech therapist). I have a little extra spare time while I complete onboarding, and will be working only part-time hours, so I'm hoping to have the chance to help with some furry friends as I enter this new phase :-).
