Hi, I'm Julie—a lifelong animal lover with over four decades of hands-on experience caring for pets like they’re my own family. I grew up surrounded by dogs and have been passionate about animals my entire life (I'm 55 now, and that love has only grown stronger!). I've raised, trained, and cared for puppies through their energetic early years all the way to gentle senior dogs who need extra patience, soft handling, and comfort in their golden years. On my previous ranch, I managed a variety of animals, including horses and cats alongside dogs. That meant daily care routines, grooming, feeding, and building strong bonds with each one. I've also provided dedicated support for sick or injured animals—nursing hurt dogs and horses back to health, assisting with post-surgery recovery, administering medications when needed, and monitoring their progress with care and attention. Whether it's playtime with a bouncy pup, quiet companionship for a senior pet, or gentle rehab for one who's under the weather, I approach every animal with compassion, observation, and a calm, steady presence. Your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being are my top priorities—I treat them with the same devotion I'd give my own. I'd love the chance to care for your furry (or hoofed!) family member and give you peace of mind while you're away. Let's chat about how I can help!"
