Availability
I work part-time in home health services, so my schedule during the week tends to vary. I am, however, shifting my focus to pet care and have multiple openings Monday-Friday for drop-ins and dog walks. I am more than willing to pet sit during the week, and my shifts would take me away from the house for 2-5 hours. I have full availability on weekends for drop-ins, dog walks, and pet sitting.

About Julianna H.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I believe that working with cats and dogs requires a mutual understanding and respect. In training my own dogs, I do not yell at or punish them for misbehavior; instead, I provide positive feedback to encourage good behavior. When walking a dog, I let it take its time and do not tug or rush it along, as a walk is for the dog's enjoyment. I like to build trust with an animal and love giving them all the attention they deserve (which is an infinite amount). Accidents happen, and when a pet makes a mess, there is no shame or guilt involved. I believe that any outburst or accident from an animal is a response to a need not met, and work to satisfy the need instead of punishing the behavior.
Information Julianna H. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what commands the pet knows, its routine, and the type of behaviors it displays when it needs or wants something. I also like to know about any medical conditions and have all instructions written down. Additionally, let me know about their favorite toys and treats!
A typical day
A typical day includes, above all, lots of love and pats. It includes multiple long walks throughout the day where the dog is allowed to lead the journey and sniff to its heart's content. If you have grooming supplies, I love spending time grooming pets as it builds trust and helps to get in touch with a pet's physical health. If your dog loves to play, then play time is all the time. I always follow instructions as closely as possible, and align my routine with your animal to promote a low-stress stay.

Capable and passionate about pets!
Pet care experience
Hello, here I will introduce myself by my preferred name, Fern! I graduated with a degree in Biology from the University of Maine and am passionate about all things animals. I am comfortable with all shapes and sizes of pets, and grew up with both a 10-pound chihuahua and a 150-pound Anatolian shepherd. Pet care is something I take great pride and joy in, and I love spending hours walking, grooming, and playing with my clients' pets. I am experienced in administering oral medication, caring for multiple animals at a time, and working with reactive pets. I currently work part-time, but I always have weekends off and part of the week free for pet care services. If you think that I might be a good fit for your furry friend, I would love to connect!
Reviews
Fern did an amazing job with our 2 dogs while we were away for a long trip. She updated us including photos everyday. Would highly recommend and we are likely to ask for her help again for future trips.
i call julianna everytime i need a cat sitter. she is so amazing, so communicative, so lovely. my cats love her, the house is always clean, and she really goes out of her way.
Julianna is my favorited and preferred pet sitter always! She sends all the photos i ask for (too many), the cats love her, she’s very detail oriented, and she’s clean! She is very communicative and follows all directions perfectly. I really recommend her for your pets!
Fern did an amazing job with my anxious senior dog, Cookie. She walked Cookie from mid-July to mid-September, 2025, often daily. She was patient and helped problem solve how to have Cookie feel at ease. She built trust quickly, paid attention Cookie's patterns, followed a consistent schedule, and welcomed the cat as a bonus guest to the daily visits :) Fern was responsive, prompt, communicative and accurate in her updates. She has my highest recommendation and I would jump at the chance to have Fern work with our pet family members again. ~Audra
