Pet care experience

I have a 12 year old cat and an 11 year old beagle, who has been living with diabetes since 2022. Growing up with dogs my entire life has made me very comfortable and patient with them. A good friend that trusts only me to pet sit for her 2 large dogs and cat, told me about this site and since 2017 I have met many pets and their parents, gaining a few long term, repeat visits. I am also a pet photographer and work with all types of animals. I have volunteered at Dakin Humane Society and received some basic training on animal care and have also gone through many obedience classes with multiple pets that I have had. Feel free to ask any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

Julie was absolutely fantastic - communicative, friendly, and too so many really wonderful photos every day. She clearly established a lovely bond with Pumpkin and made her feel safe and comfortable each day I was away. Highly recommended!
