Looking forward to meet your pet!
Pet care experience
I've had dogs my whole life. In addition to working with my fearful and reactive dog Willow, I also volunteer at the AWLA walking dogs. I cat sat a lot growing up and have enjoyed watching quite a few cats through Rover ensuring I go their speed. I am trained to work with fearful and reactive dogs at the shelter. I love all animals and am happy to come check on and hang out with dogs, cats, or other animals as well. I also foster Guinea Pigs for the shelter, and am comfortable working with them and giving them Vitamin C via a syringe.
Reviews
Amazing as always! Julianne is always so kind and accommodating
Julianne was amazing! She was super attentive to my cat and offered suggestions and feedback throughout her visits to make sure that it was as low key and unstressful for my kitty.
Julianne is great as always!
I had a last minute need for a sitter and Julianne stepped up to the plate! Great communication and care for chica! Will definitely use Julianne again!
About Julianne J.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm happy to take dogs out on a walk around the area. If you're working on training I'm happy to reinforce good behavior on walks. I have no problem sitting and hanging out with dogs or cats in your home as wished. I also have a strong and reactive dog and work with shelter dogs of all shapes and sizes, so I'm comfortable when any size and most temperaments. I have to give my dog pills every day for her allergies, so I am comfortable with that as well.
Information Julianne J. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know more about your dog's personality. At the shelter my go to pup is usually big and strong and high energy as they remind me of my dog, and often don't get as much attention. While I have a lot of experience working with reactive dogs, I would like to know how they react and what you do to manage it. If you have specific places you'd like me to walk your dog or specific phrases you use with them, please let me know! I'm happy to accommodate all kinds of needs.
A typical day
I enjoy going on walks with dogs and exploring the area. I'm used to keeping my distance when passing other dogs or people as my dog is leash reactive, so I try to give everyone some space. I enjoy playing fetch with dogs, and have been trained on teaching basic commands with dogs.
