Dependable Compassionate Pet Lover!
Pet care experience
I am currently enrolled in an online master's degree program, so I can come to your home and be there to give your pets plenty of love and attention while you are away. My husband and I had at least one dog for most of our 25 years together, but I haven't had pets of my own since he passed away in late 2018, so I miss that wonderful doggy companionship. As a single person with no children, dog sitting helps fill that gap in my life. Further reasons why I am a great house and pet sitter include: -I'm responsible and dependable, and I will respectfully care for your home as well as doting on your your canine/feline companions. -I've lived many years as a traveling vagabond, so I'm at home in unfamiliar settings. -I'm a pretty calm and mellow person, which puts animals at ease. -But not too mellow! I love getting outside, walking, and being healthy, so I will be motivated to make sure your dogs get the daily exercise they need. While I have far more experience with dogs, I also enjoy the company of cats and would be happy to care for your feline friends, too.
Reviews
Julie was a great dog-sitter and house-sitter, she took great care of our dog Arctos in our space and left everything tidy and in good condition! Highly recommended!
Thank you so much!!
I can’t say enough about how kind and warm Julie was when we met. My dogs can be a handful, but when we got home from our trip they were very obviously happy and calm in a way we’ve never seen after leaving them with a sitter. Thanks again Julie! You will be our go to gal every time!
Super great for Archie and house sitting

I am not able to bring animals to my home at this time. I will come to your home and stay with your pets there.
Information Julie B. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting a dog, I would like to know: -Their feeding regime -Daily routine -Where we can go for walks -How they are with other dogs (aggressive, shy, etc) -How they are with people -What kind of treats I can give them -What toys are available
A typical day
I love getting out and walking, and I know that dogs also love and need that on a regular basis. If your dog loves to fetch, I'll toss balls for them until one of us can't do it anymore. If they're not so keen on retrieving balls, I'll find some other activity to engage in with them and have fun. There will also be plenty of tummy rubs, scratching behind the ears, and other hands-on showing of affection while I am staying with your pets.

Availability
I am currently working about 30 hours a week; and since I largely work on my own schedule, I can easily adjust to your animals' needs.
