I would treat your pup like my own!
Pet care experience
Hi! I love dogs of all sizes, and spend lots of time walking and hiking with my 5 year old coonhound Todd. We go to the Lake Padden dog park regularly, hike on the trails or walk around the lake. Todd is very friendly and social with people and dogs of all sizes. I'm used to high energy dogs and I can provide exercise during dog boarding or daycare. We can go on a walk, run, to the dog park, or a hike in the Bellingham area. I have also cared for an older dog for a bit, so I'm ok taking things at a slower pace and hanging out at home too. Dogs are welcome to spend time in our house and fenced yard or take a snooze in one of our dog beds or on our couches.

Quickly responds to messages. Keeps you up to date on pets stay. Jack was relaxed and happy when I picked him up.
Julianna was a great sitter for our pup Tika! She kept us updated and sent pictures which eased our mind while on vacation. I could tell that Julianna really cared for the well-being of our pup and made sure she was comfortable and received enough exercise. Thank you so much…from our whole family!
Julianna was great with Ginger! After Ginger stayed with Julianna, she came back home tired and happy. I would definitely have Julianna watch over my pup again, as she was able to handle my energetic puppy (and my many training habits) in such short notice. I really appreciated her taking the time to work with Ginger and welcoming Ginger into her home.
Julianna was Caring and thoughtful for our pup when we had to leave her for half a day. Would definitely consider leaving Trixie with her again.

Information Julianna S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know what your dog's daily routine is and what level of exercise fits them best. Please let me know how your dog behaves around other dogs (small dogs, large dogs, puppies). It would be good to know if your dog is allowed treats, and if they have any medications or allergies. I have given oral medication to dogs before, so I'm comfortable doing that if your pup needs it. I'm ok sitting dogs of any size or breed. I would love to take care of your dog, and Todd loves having a friend around too! :) It's probably best to do a meet and greet first, so let me know if you would like to arrange one!
A typical day
If your dog stays with me, you can expect that I'll walk your dog twice per day (once in the morning and once in the evening). If you would prefer that your dog doesn't go on walks - that's ok too. I usually take my dog on hiking trails near our house and/or walks in the neighborhood. I only walk dogs on leash. I am home during the day if I agree to sit a dog, so you can expect that your dog will have potty breaks whenever they are needed. We have a fenced yard that is just big enough to play a game of fetch if your dog enjoys that. I have an assortment of safe dog toys that your dog is welcome to chew to keep busy as well. :) In our house dogs are allowed to rest on couches, chairs and beds - we are pretty easy going. I'm used bathing my own dog (he is short-haired). If you would prefer that I wash your dog during the stay that can be arranged. However I'm not a professional groomer by any means so it would be a simple warm bath w/dog shampoo, rinse, and towel dry followed by staying indoors for a bit to keep from getting too cold. :) In our house I always feed dogs separately (separate rooms) to make sure everyone has good behavior. My dog Todd hasn't shown any resource guarding but we do it as a precaution to keep things friendly.
