Genuine, Careful, and Loving.

Pet care experience

Like my title says, I am a genuine, caring and loving pet sitter. Whether your dog is coming to stay with me or I'm looking after them in the comfort of their own home, I promise to give them my all. When your pet stays with me, you can be confident that you're leaving them in the care of an experienced sitter. I used to own dog care business in Chicago and I shared my life with my own dog for 16 years (he passed away last year). I miss Little lord Bruno all the time and though his passing has broken my heart, I have a lot of love left to give to other dogs. Big or small, I can take care of them all! I am very friendly with my doggy neighbors and Riverside Park is literally right outside my door, so we can go on pleasant and beautiful walks. Dogs get one on one attention from me. They are constantly petted, talked to (and if they don't have a nickname, I'll be sure to give them one! Some of my clients have been dubbed Princess Pandora, Sir Bronco, Lady Sasha, or Fun-time Frankie. I'm happy to brush, pet or massage your dog so they can feel relaxed while in my care. I take pictures and face time with owners while on walks or at home (whichever the owner prefers). Walks are engaging and playful! I love getting exercise with my four legged friends. I work from home so I can spend a lot of time with your dog and it is quiet, peaceful and clean. I'd love to get to know you and your dog, let's set up a meet and greet!

Julia was amazing!!! This was our first time using rover and leaving our babies to a stranger and we have a new puppy that is only 4 months old. We were worried because our 2 year old maltese is still adjusting to the new addition to the family and we are still in the process of potty training the puppy. She was very pleasant and made it very easy to talk to her about our concerns and you can tell she understood our anxiety and really made us feel at ease. We talked before I even booked, which was nice. She asked a lot of questions about the dogs and their habits and what we wanted, which I liked ( you can tell she cared). She was even willing to do a meet and greet. Drop off was easier than I thought. The pups immediately felt comfortable with her and her place. She lets them roam her apartment and take over her bed (which is good because my pups are use to that) She sent a bunch of pictures and updates and when we picked them up they were happy. We will definitely be using Julia again and I would highly recommend her!!!!

Julia is reliable and communicative. I really appreciated the updates and photos she would send while she looked after our dog, Hansel. She takes her responsibility seriously and has a great disposition. Hansel got a great balance of play, exercise, and rest while he was with her. Thrilled we found her!

Information Julia R. would like to know about your pet

I like to meet dogs before taking care of them and do require a Meet and Greet. I also want to know their usual habits, personality quirks and temperament. If they have any conditions or medications that they take, let me know! I want to provide the best care possible to keep both you and your dog happy.

A typical day

We will go for walks in Riverside and Central Park to stretch our legs. Your dog will enjoy being brushed, massaged, petted, talked to and played with. I will play catch or fetch or run them If they need exercise. At home dogs have toys and treats are talked to and held. I'll treat them like my very own family.
