Information Julie A. would like to know about your pet

I always want to be aware of any injuries, allergies, or other important health-related or behavioral information. I also appreciate knowing about any skills you are currently working on with your pet.

A typical day

Long, leisurely walks that give dogs the opportunity to smell the world and explore without getting into anything stinky or gross. If it’s hills your dog enjoys running up or down or a game of chase, I love getting my cardio in. I'm happy to help with any of the socialization needs your pet has.

Pet care experience

I live in Strathmore and work downtown. My absolute favorite things in life are my sons (who are amazing human beings!) and animals. Now that my sons are independent and out of the house, I enjoy being around and caring for animals. I have experience with all kinds of animals (e.g., dogs, cats, tarantulas, snakes, insects, and more). And I have had and loved dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from mini dachshunds with serious Napoleon complexes to larger-than-life Rottweilers and Great Danes. If you need a trustworthy, reliable, and affordable caregiver, feel free to reach out. :) Please note: Rate adjustments are available based on financial need. 😊

Julie is one of the few people I would trust with my dogs! She’s responsible, caring and reliable, not to mention trustworthy! I’m certain you’ll feel the same way!

You couldn't ask for a gentler soul to watch your beloved pets. Julie is an amazingly kind and loving person who lives for contact with every animal, from squirrels she feeds peanuts to during her daily lunch walks, to the neighbor chicken she feeds daily, to her own two wonderful dachshunds she adores, to the spiders and houseflies she re-homes instead of exterminating. You will certainly be in the best of hands!
