Pet care experience

I’ve got your tail covered.

With eight years of hands-on experience in animal care, I am deeply passionate about providing top-quality care for a wide range of animals. My experience spans across dogs, cats, and birds, and I am well-versed in handling various breeds and temperaments. As a certified dog trainer, I have developed specialized skills in working with dogs of all behaviors, from basic obedience to addressing more complex issues. In addition to my training experience, I have worked as a veterinary technician for a year, where I gained valuable knowledge in animal health and medical care. I also spent time at a dog boarding facility, further honing my ability to manage multiple animals in a structured, safe, and caring environment. Whether I’m training, offering medical care, or simply providing love and attention, my dedication to animals shines through in everything I do. My ability to connect with animals, coupled with my diverse experience, allows me to confidently care for animals of any breed or temperament, ensuring their well-being and happiness.

Safety, trust & environment

I have an unfenced yard. I live within a few minutes of two big parks. The dogs love to run around at the parks and even just walk around the neighborhood and get all the smells in!

Our cats are in LOVE with Julia! Cat #1 met her at the door for the "meet and greet," and after quickly approving, went straight to her shoes and dove in. Cat #2 is very shy, but within a few days, was also smitten with Julia. No kidding! Julia sends photos every day. You can see the happiness in the cats' eyes. She went "above and beyond" when we changed our travel plans and had to add 4 days to our service! We have already booked her again.

Julia replied so quickly and took care of my dog on a very last minute request. She was very attentive to my dogs needs!

Booked Julia for the first time today, and it went great! She was so responsive when I reached out a few weeks ago, we completed meet and greet soon after. We have a skittish, deaf and mostly blind 16 year old senior, and a very small little girl chihuahua. Booking Julia again for a drop in this weekend!

I have 3 dogs and 2 cats. One of my dogs has special needs, a stroke. Julia is always very attentive and caring. She makes each pet feel loved and loves them as well. They all look forward to Julia's presence.

It’s important to know if a dog has any health issues and needs medication. As well as, if the dog has any form of anxiety towards anything or reactivity.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
