Auntie Julia Spoils 'Em Rotten

Pet care experience

**About me** Often compared to Dr. Doolittle, I am a true animal whisperer. I have owned cats, dogs, birds, fish, hermit crabs, turtles, and many other creature friends throughout my life. In fact I've never NOT had a pet. Animals are my passion, and I love spending time with them and doting on them. I've become the go-to pet sitter among my friends and family, and would love to help you take care of your furry, fishy, or feathery friends! I'm extremely reliable, and won't take a job if I don't have time to give your pets the utmost care. I love taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, frisbee, or tug-o-war. I enjoy dangling string for kitties and letting them chase me around with it. And of course I'll give everybody plenty of pets, cuddles, and kisses (if they like it, that is). Let me know if you have any questions! **About my home/services** I will always supervise animals outdoors, and make sure they stay in the yard or on a leash. I will also make sure they are fed and watered whenever their schedule requires it. I don't mind staying with them overnight, and if they prefer/are allowed to sleep on the bed, they are welcome to join me! I'm incredibly flexible in what services I can offer, with the exception of boarding them in my home. (I have 2 very territorial cats). Happy to help however I can otherwise! **About my neighborhood** I cannot bring animals to my home at this time. My cats would be very unhappy. However, I don't mind at all coming to your home. Your pets would probably prefer that anyway. **What to expect** Cuddles, fetch, walks, belly rubs, tug-o-war, you name it! **Special rules or requests** I can pick up and drop off dogs for walks if necessary. No breed restrictions. No real restrictions on types of animals except rabbits (I'm very allergic, unfortunately).

Julia was great with our two kitties, Leif and Fern! She provided updates daily along with photos, changed litter, watered my plant(s), and made us feel at ease knowing our cats were in good hands! We will definitely be contacting Julia again!!

We had to go out of town for the first time since adopting our second dog, Norma, and we were anxious about leaving her at a kennel over the weekend, so we were thrilled when Julia was able to watch her and our other dog, Liam, in our home. Norma has separation anxiety and we've done a ton of work with her to help her feel comfortable and safe at home, but she still requires a greater amount of care and watching than most dogs. Julia was more than happy to spend the time with Norma that she needed, even though it meant Julia would be 'stuck' at our house most of the weekend. Much of Norma's routine is complex and after writing about five pages of notes, I was worried Julia would be overwhelmed, but she wasn't thankfully and was more than eager to do whatever was needed to make sure Norma had a good weekend. In addition, our other dog is older and requires a few different medications that are administered through his food. In short, we gave Julia quite the list of tasks and detailed routines to follow for both of our pups and she happily followed everything perfectly! Leaving our newer dog for the first time was stressful enough and adding on that was feeling guilty about asking so much of someone else, but we are forever grateful that Julia took such good care of Norma and Liam and that we could trust her to follow our complicated, but necessary instructions! Julia is a wonderful, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter and we will be using her from now on to care for our sweet pups!
