I am a go to dog sitter for many friends and family members. I recently lost both of my own fur babies within six months of each other. They were an integral part of our family. We are not ready yet to adopt or rescue again and would love to walk dogs or have dogs for boarding or day care. I work from home and do travel a bit, but my 19 year old daughter helps when I’m unavailable. She loves dogs and has completed an internship with a local emergency veterinary hospital. I also love to run and walk with dogs. Would love to run and or walk with your dog if you have one that does. I have 6 older children (only 2 are in the home but others visit) who also adore dogs and look forward to visits from those I sit. I have experience with dogs who have storm and separation anxiety. Love and snuggles are plentiful here as well as supervised trips outside.

This is the 2nd time we have brought our “babies” to Julie. They absolutely love her!!! And so do we!!! We have no worries at all when leaving them with Julie. She gives us complete peace of mind. I love the daily texts and pictures. I will continue to go to Julie whenever we need a Rover.

Julie was a such a joy to have watch our dogs! We don’t have the easiest dogs and they absolutely loved her and warmed up so quick. She was so thorough in making sure she understood care instructions and followed them all! We loved all of the updates and pictures she sent every day. We would 100% love to have our dogs stay with her again!!

This was Yoshi’s first time staying with Julie and I can’t find enough positive things to say! Not only was he well cared for and loved, but Julie and Joy kept us updated with funny videos and lots of pictures. They were also incredibly flexible as we ran into some unexpected issues on either side of our booking. We are so grateful for all they did for us!

Julie was great with Cheri and keeping us up to date with things as well as pictures. Cheri got lots of walks and Julie was able to throw the ball with her. Would absolutely book with Julie again.

Schedule

I work from home and am able to snuggle and be close by your pup during the work day and in the evening. I typically walk at least a mile or two a day and can take your dog with if they enjoy walks.

Pets

Walks nearby in my neighborhood as well as SM Dog Park and Cedar Niles trail. Plenty of space for fetch and play in my backyard. Car rides too if your pup likes to take drives.

I don’t have breed preferences. Likes and dislikes are important to know as well as allergies or special needs and a typical day in the life of your dog(s). I like to do meet and greets in my home to ensure a fit and for you to see where they’ll be during their stay.
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.
