I'm an animal-lover athlete in NYC!

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Julia S and I'm an actor and comedian in NYC - I've been in Astoria since 2017. I have over 15 years of experience dog/cat sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and professionally in NYC. In my NYC dog walking career I cared for and walked dogs all around Manhattan and Brooklyn through a wonderful agency based in Union Square. Independently, I sit for dogs and cats all over NYC, and I do walks more locally in Queens. I'm also the go-to person for my friends with pets (cats and dogs are my specialty). I'm an avid runner so I'm outdoors in all weather (and of course I love a furry friend to join me for walks or runs!). I grew up around golden retrievers and labs, but have plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes and needs. I pay close attention to detail in specific instructions and requests, and I take pet care seriously. Your pet's health, safety, and well being is my number 1 priority when on the job. Let's have some fun! One thing to note - I may add small extra fees for things like early call times for sitting, longer distances from home, and puppies/kittens who require extra care! I love all of these things and am always happy to do them, I just don't want to catch you off guard if I mention that when booking :)

Having done walks for us in the past to get to know our pup, Julia stayed in our house with our 1.5 year old 65lb mix for a few days and it went really well! Julia is super responsive and sent great pics throughout their stay of all the walks they went on and hanging together at home. We're still new-ish dog owners so it definitely comforted us knowing he was in good hands while we went away. We already booked her for another stay.

Julia is totally awesome. She has cared for our dog several times. Every time we arrive home, Lillie is happy and healthy!

Julia was incredible with my pup. He is a newer rescue and I was really nervous about leaving him. From the moment we connected I felt very comfortable with Julia- she was extremely responsive from when we booked throughout the trip. She was great with his meds and communicating about some tummy issues he was having. I got photos and updates daily and my pup was really happy. He was looking for her upon my return. The house was very clean when I came back and I look forward to working with Julia again in the future.

A typical day

Since I'm in Astoria, I love Astoria park and walking by the water. I always try to find some sort of nature close by, depending where we're walking. I also love taking cute pictures with the dogs if requested!
