Pet care experience

Around-the-clock doggy love & care.

I ran a responsible breeding program, where I took dog health and development very seriously, giving special attention to lots of love and play. My home is clean, safe and full of doggy love! I am located in the Anthem Merrill Ranch community in Florence. I provide services to only one pet owner at a time, ensuring a calm environment for your dogs and allowing me to respond to any needs promptly and with utmost care. Please reach out with any questions. I aim to provide an experience based on trust — putting you at ease while you are away. I’d love to set up a meet and greet so we can all get to know one another. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby!

This was the first time leaving our fur baby since her birth 7 yrs ago. Julie sent pictures of her daily and we could tell our girl was having a blast. Julie sent updates and even though we were out of the country, we were still able to communicate if needed. The next trip we take, we will definitely book with Julie D. What a great experience for both our fur baby and us. We highly recommend Julie D. - 10 toes down! Thank you Julie D. and kiddos.

Julie is the best! We booked Julie while we were away on vacation and it was our first time leaving our dog home alone. She made us feel so at ease and relaxed with her coming to check on our dog. She’s great at communicating and our dog absolutely loves her! She always showed up on time and was great at letting us know how our dog was doing and how much she was eating and drinking. We will definitely reach out to Julie again in the future to watch our dog while we are gone!

Julie took care of our Riley with so much love and care while we were on vacation, that we never worried about a thing. Riley has anxiety and isn’t always comfortable around other dogs who have a lot of energy but Julie took Riley for daily walks and gave her the space she needed to acclimate. We recommend Julie and will be contacting her again for future trips!

Julie was great with our dog Riley and patient with her as she adjusted to a new environment. We have already booked with Julie again and are relieved to have someone we can trust when we need to go out of town.

Julie was excellent with Lucy. She had her for 5 days and nights and communicated every day to let me know how she was doing. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone who wants to be assured their dog is in great hands.

We were more than pleased with our experience with Julie D. From the meet and greet through the boarding, Julie was accommodating, gracious and exactly the environment that I felt comfortable leaving my high energy dog. I would definitely use Julie in the future and recommend her highly.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. My goal is to create a stay where dogs feel comfortable and cared for — while their owners have the reassurance that their furry companion is receiving attentive care.
