Information Julie H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dogs are on any medication, if their medical care is up-to-date, and if they have any allergies. I would also like to know if they have shown any signs of aggression, or have any triggers. In addition, learning what makes each dog happy and content is important to me.

A typical day

First, I like to ask the dog owners what activities their dogs enjoy doing on a daily basis, then I incorporate them into the dogs' daily routines. Then I do light grooming on the dogs as needed. Getting fresh air is a big part of the day, weather permitting. Playing ball and walking are also part of a normal day.

I cared for (and spoiled) many relatives' pets when they went on vacation through the years. I also lovingly cared for my elderly parents for over a decade.

We were so happy that we found Julie to watch our senior dog. She sent us pictures and updates daily. I could tell that our dog seemed at home with her. We will definitely use her again!!

We are so thankful for the outstanding care Julie and her son provided our dog Star! Julie kept us updated daily with fun texts and pictures and gave us such peace of mind that Star was having a great time without us! :) Julie's care is genuine and devoted. They went above and beyond to treat Star! I can't say enough good things about her care and communication.

Julie treated my dog, Lily, like a family member. I was able to relax and enjoy vacation because I knew she was being cared for so well!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
