Highlights
Pet care experience
Lover of ALL dogs, small or large !
I’m a Registered Nurse by profession with 25+ years of experience ( most of that as a Labor & Delivery nurse) and I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was about 10 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their beloved pets. Then I was lucky enough to call one dog my own for 12 years. She showed up as a stray one day and my life has been changed for the better ever since. Sadly she passed away a few years ago. Because my life makes it hard to commit full time to another dog I nowadays rather dogsit someone else’s precious pet. Like yours !
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Julia boarded my dog for a week, and did a wonderful job! She sent daily updates and really made me feel like my pup was in a caring and pampered environment. My dog was treated to a vacation while our family was on vacation. I highly recommend Julia.
I truly cannot recommend Julia enough! If you are looking for a rover who will treat your pup as their own, she's the best. From the very beginning, Julia took the time to understand my dog’s shy nature, and daily routine, which put my mind at ease. Julia is also wonderful to communicate with and extremely reliable. Olive is already looking forward to her next visit with Julia.
Julia was communicative and caring from the meet and greet through the whole stay. Flora got great walks and came home happy.
Jupiter had the best time. He looked completely relaxed in his photos. Julia was exemplary in her communication. I am very appreciative.
Julia is awesome. I'm looking forward to the next time she can care for our pup. She went above and beyond when I had a few snafus in my day before dropping my dog off, took the dog for a spectacular walk, and then gave me a fantastic dinner spot recommendation.
We are so happy to have found Julia — our dog is in love! Julia is so flexible, communicative, and sweet. She was so generous with her time and energy, taking our dog on long walks or multiple walks each day. She shared updates and responded to my messages very quickly. Bongo loved her Alameda vacation and is probably sad to be home now ;)

Schedule
I’m currently working from home part time and have plenty of time to play with your dog and go on long walks. I miss those walks since I lost my own dog !
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog is welcome to roam my entire home as well as my deck which is overlooking the water in Ballena Bay in Alameda, as well as my private, closed in courtyard.
A typical day
I live one the water, so there’s plenty of visual stimulation for your puppy all day long. And I’m a few steps from a quiet bay front walk with plenty of nature and space for your dog to satisfy it’s senses and need for exercise.
