Pet care experience

Home Full Time and Enjoy Animals 🐾

I have had pets all my life. I also through Rover, have gained experience with service animals, in addition to special needs, terminally ill, and senior pets. I've cared for small to large dogs and puppies. I will give your dog plenty of outside time and couch naps. They will get lots of potty breaks and meal time as many times necessary a day. If they like, they can cozy up in my bed as well. I keep on hand treats, toys, and a few dog beds for comfort in my home. I am capable of handling 1 or 2 at once. If you are interested don't hesitate to contact me. I have a laid-back cancellation policy so if something comes up, it won't be held against your wallet. Hope you see your precious pet will do great with my home and family and chose me as your verified, experienced sitter. Please look through my photos to view so.e clients ive had in the past, and some regular clients as well i still care for today, you will find a picture of my backyard property on the lake and aome photos of myself as well. Thank you. Happy tails! I am home full time, only stepping out for upto 1 1/2 hours at a time maximum to attend bookings in person for Rover clients, if i am away, someone is always in the home, its unlikely your pet will be alone and have a need to be crated because i understand this is an unfamiliar place. I have assistance from my partner, Tre' as well in the home while im away, if necessary you may meet him as well. This applies to boarding visits! I stay home all day until my children come home 5pm and are in bed by 8:30pm, so if your pet does not like children, no worries, i will keep seperation from my tiny humans until bedtime. I watch tv, cook, and clean and enjoy my clients company on the couch or in the kitchen. I have multiple gates, toys, treats, dog and cat necessities in my home in order to make your pet feel at home in a new environment. I have experience in the basics of caring for animals with medications, disabilities, and any special care necessary from volunteering at my local animal shelter in 2016- 2019. I apply this experience with troubled animals to calmly allow the animals to adjust to a new human and trust me quickly.

Julia was wonderful in caring for Frankie. I appreciate her willingness to go above and beyond in making sure Frankie came home happy and relaxed.

Julia took great care of our fur babies. Her updates were wonderful and multiple pictures were a joy to receive. She even brought our packages inside! Great communication. We will definitely request her skills again.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a very experienced pet owner, and take ownership seriously as my pets are like my children. I always ask many questions to be sure your baby is treated the way you’d treat them in my care.

Pets

A typical day

I typically take my client's pets out on the lake deck to watch geese and ducks swim around, take in fresh air, maybe even chase a squirrel around my neighborhood complex. I allow the animals to play or be a lazy bones depending on the pets demeanor and likes. I will gladly stick to the schedule as you would and treat your pet as my own.
