Responsible & Expert Fetch Player

Pet care experience

I've grown up my whole life with dogs, I've spent years pet-setting my friend's and neighbor's dogs and cats. I have a cat & live with a dog!! I've cared for pets with medical needs before (anxiety, diabetes, asthma, allergies, etc.) I've been a nanny and a babysitter who takes care of any pets as well as kids. I’m a former Elementary school teacher turned recruiter If I'm coming to your house to care for your pet, I want your furbaby to know that I'm another human who cares about them. I'm ridiculously good at fetch and tug a war and love giving belly rubs.

Julia has watched and cared for my 70lb, high anxiety pitbull mix on multiple occasions and I could not ask for a more trustworthy and reliable person to have with my dog. She communicates well and often, treats my dog as if it were her own, and gives my pup a lot of love and exercise while I am away. Julia is someone I regularly think of when I need reliable assistance for my pup at any point in time.

I was very fortunate to have Julia check in on my cat Debbie while I was away. She was quick to respond and was even willing to help on the 4th of July for a good price. Not only did she feed Debbie but she also gave her lots of attention. Definitely would book again and recommend to others.

Julia is so good with my dog Olive, walking her, playing hide and seek and playing in general. Julia is a responsible, communicative person and Olive loves her.
