Pet care experience

I love dogs and cats! And I love to walk and run! Looking forward to combining these loves. I am a long-time pet owner. We have had dogs in our family for the past 30 years (Friday, a standard poodle mix, and two Springer Spaniels, Nick and Freckles). Those Springers are high energy dogs and I am quite used to taking long walks/runs with them! We also had a cute black and white kitty named Marie. Please know that I will treat your pet like one of ours (spoiled, of course!). We are just moving back to Chicago from the suburbs and I look forward to having time to spend with new furry friends. You can be assured that your precious pet will be well cared for.

Julie is the best dogsitter we have ever had. She was so great with our pup who can be a nervous gal, and she made her feel right at home. It was like a vacation for our dog, with walks to the beach and parks every day. Julie is so kind and communicative as well, keeping us updated throughout our dogs stay. You can tell she really knows how to work with all kinds dogs, including dogs like ours that have high energy or prey drives. If you’re looking for a Rover in Chicago, book Julie! She is amazing!

Julie, Thank you for offering to take care of our fur baby Chance while in the Chicago area. It gave us peace of mind knowing that Chance was being spoiled. We appreciated your prompt response to our request, and your numerous texts and pictures through-out the day in your care. With out hesitation, I would recommend Julie and would request her services again if we are in the area.

Julie was fantastic! She frequently sent pictures and updates, and made sure our cat was happy and taken care of. She really went the extra mile to make sure that our first time being away from our pet was a stress-free experience!

Information Julie C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, please let me know ahead of time. I only accept dogs that are house trained for boarding.

A typical day

Some dogs can play fetch for hours, and I’m there for them. I try to match my energy to that of the dog that I am watching. Sometimes, we just cuddle on the couch, if the dog is lower energy.
