I'll Walk with your Pup!
Pet care experience
There’s just nothing like getting to provide a pup with the love and care they need to thrive! Dogs offer us unconditional love and happiness, so being a pooch sitter allows me the very humbling opportunity to give a little bit back to them as well. Dogs just want to spend as much time as possible with us and are so happy to even see us walk through the door. That’s why it’s my job to make sure that every pup has a smile on their face and happiness in their heart! I have had dogs for most of my life, although my experience with pups doesn’t end there. I have been a pet sitter for many years with different breeds and sizes, and have loved getting to know their unique personalities and temperaments. Getting to be a sitter has been such a rewarding experience! In addition to being a sitter, I also volunteered for a time at a shelter. I really enjoyed getting to take care of dogs that needed a little help transitioning to their forever families, and watching them thrive under my care is a memory I won’t forget. Currently, I work in the medical industry and volunteer a few hours a week at Saddleback Hospital. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all. I treat my canine clients as if they were my own loved one! I make sure they have different types of fun activities and walks every day so they never get bored or anxious. There are tons of great walking opportunities nearby, but I also enjoy cuddle time on the couch and like having conversations with my pups too. Some are so vocal and hilarious! For owners, I provide detailed updates each day along with pictures showing all the fun we are having. I keep all of my lines of communication open in case any questions or concerns arise, and am always available by call or text.
Reviews
Julie is a wonderful person who loves being with dogs and makes strong connections with people and dogs alike. We would not hesitate to have Julie in our home and in charge of our furry loved ones.
We highly recommend Julie for house and pet sitting. She is dependable, reliable and very much pet engaged. Our Jack Russell ( his name is Jack Sparrow) gets so excited to see her when she would walk in. So sad that she is not available for Jack now, due to her relocation. We truly miss her and so does Jack. If you have any questions, feel free to message us. Thank you, Denise and Steve
Shes great she looks after my dog frequently. My dog adores her as do I. Id let her look after my kiddos too. Shes my go to person to watch my animals.

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
I do work full time Monday through Friday so I’m not able to sit with a pooch who needs potty breaks every two hours. I do make sure to take a short walk right before I leave for work and as soon as I return, however, and I also adjust my personal routine or schedule when I have a canine client waiting for me. With that being said, spending time with pups is always a wonderful experience. My neighborhood is super accommodating to fur babies. I love that there are many dog lovers in my neighborhood, and we have a really nice dog park and nice walking trails. We also have two lakes to walk around, which are so fun for any pooch hoping to get some exploration in. I’d be happy to head to the park, lake, or beach with tons of toys and get lots of exercise at any time!
