Pet care experience
My main motivation for joining Rover is purely my love for animals; I want to give great care to and bond with the dogs I walk to prepare for the dog I want to adopt within the year. My personal experience comes from owning various cats since 1998 and dog sitting for various friends over the years since 2008. I helped train two within the last five years; a Standard Poodle and an Australian Shepard. I work at home as a programmer, so a walk in the morning, midday, or evening (or anytime on the weekend) would be choice. Lately I’ve been watching dog training videos from Zak George and really appreciating his training style focusing on positive reinforcement; that is a style that I want to adopt into my own care for dogs. If I sound like a good fit for a dog walker, please reach out! I definitely would love to meet your dog.
Reviews
I needed a last-minute daycare situation for my 11 week old golden retriever, Murray. I am incredibly grateful that we found Julian for Murray’s care while I went back to work. Julian has gone above and beyond by not only walking and playing with Murray until he’s fast asleep, but they have also helped with his ongoing puppy training. After the first day, Murray’s leash skills had improved greatly and I owe it to Julian. We are incredibly happy with the care that Murray has received!
Julian has dog sat for me on multiple occasions for several nights at a time, and has been fantastic each time. They have provided sweet, thoughtful, and excellent care for both of my dogs, including my senior dog who had dementia and arthritis and was on several medications, and my younger, high-energy, heeler mix. Both of my dogs ADORE them. Julian always keeps me up to date and is very responsive, as well. I absolutely recommend Julian!
Julian is not only loving and fun, Julian is disciplined and skilled. I have trusted Julian with two dogs and three cats over the last decade. They will follow instructions, meticulously and remember all the details. Julian understands both people and dogs and will give each what they need. They will cuddle, walk and bike with your dog, based on the dogs needs and the owner’s decisions. Julian is one of Shadow’s top five favorite people. Shadow is a Standard Poodle. He is four years old and has spent a lot of time with Julian starting from the week we brought him home.
Julian took care of our two dogs pre-covid and stayed at our home with them. One of them was an older dog with many special needs, and Julian took great care of her. I usually feel apprehensive about leaving those tasks to someone else, but I was able to completely relax knowing that they were both in Julian's care. Julian is a true dog lover and it shows. Would recommend to anyone for walking or sitting.

Information Julian K. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know your pet’s personality, age, training, history with other animals, and any special needs. I have no breed restrictions at this time.
A typical day
We can stick around the neighborhood, go to a park, or go a little farther out to nature and go hiking; it’s up to you. I will also play fetch (a long ball thrower is excellent) and run your dog in a vetted field or dog park. If your dog has any dog friends, I can help facilitate a meet up in a public place as well.
