Safety, trust & environment

I care for everyone's pets with the same love and devotion I show my own pets, but with different physical needs depending on the pet I'm caring for at the time! I'm more than happy to send photo updates during my visits to help reassure you that your pet is happy and safe! My pet care will always be tailored to both you and your fur baby, so each animal will receive its own unique pet sitting experience! For example, if you're looking for someone to walk your dog while you're at work, we can organise times that you think would be best for you and your dog so that they're not left on their own for too long! I have OCD, so I am extremely careful about making sure your home is safe and locked up after my visit! If you have mobility issues and need someone to come in and help care for your pet while you're at home, I'm very relaxed and bubbly, I'm happy to either chat with you about how wonderful your pets are, or if you prefer quiet, I can do tasks such as emptying litter trays and feeding pets in a calm relaxed atmosphere!

Information Julie H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any medical conditions or special needs ahead of my visit, before I look after your pet I will bring a form round and we will talk though the details and needs of your fur baby! This puts my mind at rest as I have any and all information instantly available to me if I can't get hold of you! Details will include the name and number of the vet practice where your fur baby is registered.

A typical day

I will greet your pet calmly at first, especially while we get to know each other, taking a seat in your home and letting them come to me, then after they've greeted me I'll give them love and pets! We will play intellectually stimulating games and go over any training if your pet is still learning commands or tricks in a fun way with treats! For dogs I'll take them to the park for a nice walk letting the dog lead in terms of how long the walk will be. For example if its a cool day we might go for longer but if it's really hot and your dog is having a struggle we will do a shorter walk. I'll also play some energetic at home games such as fetch, hide and seek etc before making sure that they have food/water and saying goodbye till next time!

experienced pet sitter looking to lend a paw ❤️

Pet care experience

I'm an fully insured, DBS checked, and first aid trained pet owner, sitter, dog walker & photographer who has grown up with small pets as well as dogs and cats! I adore being around animals, and have enjoyed volunteering at a variety of places, including: Horse Stables, Hedgehog Rescue Centre, Donkey Sanctuary & more! Being around animals gives me a sense of peace and I'm happy to take the time to get to know more shy fur babies! I have a passion for photography! So it's highly likely that you'll receive the cutest photo updates and images if you choose to book with me! 📷 Other advantages of choosing me to look after your fur baby include comprehensive forms that go through every single detail about your pet, because they're not just a pet, they are family ❤️ I've learned lots of skills along my journey and I would love nothing more than to meet your furry family members! It always makes my day ❤️ As with all animals who grow older, additional attention is needed, with small pets such as hamsters I'm proficient in weighing them daily, as well as administering any medications. I have senior care experience with cats and dogs as well, gentle exercise, soft massage, delicate brushing and proficiency in administering any medications as long as full comprehensive instructions are provided.

Couldn't have been more pleased. Julie and John were excellent and kept us updated with plenty of pictures. It was also great that they left an end of day sheet to let us know what had happened during the day with our girls.

What can I say! This lady is amazing at her job. I had to resort to asking someone I didn’t know last minute to look after our sausage dogs and Julie was amazing. She provided us with lots of updates, the dogs loved her. She is compassionate, loves animals and makes a really good pet photographer. I’d have no issues asking for her help again. Thanks Julie xx
