Highlights
Pet care experience
All Creatures Great and Small <3
Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve always had a deep love for animals, but my professional pet care journey began in the UK, where I walked dogs simply for the joy of it. Since then, I’ve gained extensive experience working with dogs and cats across Ireland, the US, and my local shelter in Salem, Oregon. As a Level 2 Dog Walker, I’m trusted to handle dogs who may be fearful, reactive, or otherwise challenging. This specialized training has equipped me with the patience, understanding, and skills to care for pets with unique needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog, or a furry friend needing extra reassurance, I pride myself on a personalized approach to ensure your pet feels safe and happy. I’ve also achieved Star Sitter status on Rover, thanks to my dedication to providing exceptional care and building strong relationships with pets and their owners. With glowing reviews, return clients, and a history of reliable service, I’m committed to offering your pets the love and attention they deserve. As the proud owner of a high energy German shepherd rescue, Archie, I’m well versed in managing large breeds and understand the importance of training, exercise, and tailored care. I also prioritize your pet’s comfort by caring for them in familiar surroundings, helping reduce stress while you’re away. Looking ahead, I plan to invest in a fenced yard to offer secure, fun playtime for returning clients, a special treat for pets who love a mix of adventure and relaxation! Let’s set up a meet and greet to discuss how I can provide your furry family member with the best care possible!

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize your pet’s comfort and security by offering care right in their own home, where they’re surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and routines. This approach helps minimize stress and keeps their day as normal as possible while you’re away. Looking ahead, I’m planning to invest in a fenced yard to offer an exciting treat for returning clients. This future addition will allow your pets to enjoy a fun, secure playtime by the creek and in our spacious yard—a great way to let off some steam and add an extra touch of enjoyment to their care and let them lounge on the couch after an exciting day. For now, you can trust that your furry friend will receive the utmost attention and care in the cozy environment of their own home.
Ratings and reviews
As always Julia is awesome! She took such good care of our corgis while we were out of the country. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands while we were away. Julia sent us pictures every time she saw them multiple times a day for the entire time we were gone. In all the pictures I could tell they were so happy to have her watching them. I appreciated all the updates and the care she has provided for my boys! I highly recommend Julia and plan to have her watch my corgis in the future. Thank you, Julia!
Julia has walked and cared for our 9-year old Lab and 10-year old Labradoodle many times. She is very experienced and knowledgeable about animals and our dogs love her. I highly recommend Julia to other pet parents without a moment's hesitation!
Another wonderful cat sitting for Vienna! Over the long holidays, Julia provided her with play and attention and made sure she had enough water throughout.
She was a new career but our high-anxiety Ghost took to her like a long time best friend. Our confidence also grew over time as we saw how comfortable our boyz were.
Julia is great! My corgis seemed so happy throughout all the updates Julia provided while we were on vacation. Videos and pictures multiple times a day, which is so nice to see! I highly recommend Julia, thank you!
Very sweet and accommodating of my cat. Julia makes sure my shy cat is open to playing or interacting and not forcing anything. She is always communicative before, during, and after visits. Would highly recommend to my friends and family.

Schedule
Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, as I’m currently volunteering at the local shelter. This experience keeps me on my toes and well-acquainted with a variety of pets, but I’ve built in plenty of flexibility to accommodate your furry friends. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or a more extended stay, I’m adaptable and ready to provide your pets with the attention they deserve, while making sure they get the same love and care as my shelter buddies or my own dog!
