I love taking care of fur babies!

Pet care experience

I've taken care of animals, mostly dogs, since my first job when I was 19. My past and current employment has been in daycare & boarding facilities as well as vet hospitals. On a day to day basis I handle animals with all temperaments, with different necessities (like medication administration & keeping up with training), and conditions.

Julia was amazing and went above and beyond any expectations I had. Sent pictures and very accommodating with my dog since she’s animal reactive. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Julia would be a great rover dog sitter. Being her coworker at the kennel for over two years now, I have witnessed nothing but exceptional care that she provides each and every animal. She has a vast knowledge of animal behavior as well as animal care. I have learned a ton from her over the last two years of working with her. Additionally, she watched my own dog while I was on vacation. I trust her whole heartedly and did not worry about my dog at all while on vacation. I knew she was in good hands. Lastly, Julia has a great attitude and is a very warm and welcoming person who always has a smile on her face.

Julia is not only one of the most diligent and hard working employees, but also one of the most compassionate. She loves the pets she cares for and is kind to everyone, animal and human alike! Her years at Valley Inn and Valley Vet have given her valuable experience in the handling and care of dogs and cats, and I would trust her to be responsible with any pet she was caring for.

I am Julia's supervisor at her job and I have known her for about three years. Julia has shown me time and again that she is compassionate, insightful, and communicative. I would absolutely trust to care for my own pets. I have worked with dogs for years and Julia has been one of the most reliable, kind, and competent people I have worked with.

Information Julia R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what your dog's personality is like before meeting them. Are they energetic and crazy, a couch potato, or maybe in between. It's also important for me to know how I can make the dog feel more comfortable. For example, do they prefer to sleep in a crate, do they have any anxieties, and any fears they might have.

A typical day

Your dog and I will go on walks around my neighborhood or go to a local park where we would have a safer space to roam around. I love playing fetch or playing with a favorite toy. I also love to snuggle or have photo shoots for everyone to enjoy. I'll enjoy finding out what your pet loves the most.

I currently work full time at a daycare & boarding facility so I am looking to pet sit as a part time job. My schedule varies so I will be available at different times and days but can be flexible. For boarding services I can be more flexible as the pet will be coming to my home for a sleep over!
