Availability

I am home full time, however, usually run out for short amounts of time, usually 1-2 hours on Mon - Fri. Weekends are varied and depends on what is going on. However, when watching your dog, that would be taken into account. If your dog likes being out, it could come with us to sporting events or outdoor activities. Or if the dog would rather stay home, that’s ok too! We are active and like to take walks and be outside. We would love to have your dog join us if they’re up for it!

Pet care experience

Though my family doesn’t currently have a dog, we are dog lovers! My husband and I grew up with dogs and have many years of caring and loving on dogs. We have helped neighbors with the occasional dog sitting and dog walking, and after realizing how rewarding it is, want the opportunity to do it more often! Most recently, we kept a 5 month old golden retriever over night and loved getting to take her on lots of walks and cuddle up with her. We have 3 kids in our home ranging from 5-10, who also love dogs!

Julie is an A+ Rover! I had my 2 year old dog stay 1 night with her, she was super communicative and sent photos to let me know that he was settling in and doing well. Julie is very kind, and I felt comfortable leaving my pup with her. He came back better behaved then when I dropped him off!

Julie is a total lifesaver! It’s rare to find someone who treats your pets as if they were her own, but Julie does exactly that. She was incredibly attentive to Bree and Brodys quirks and kept us updated the entire time we were gone. Julie provided daily photo updates and detailed check-ins; it’s clear she has a genuine love for animals. We came home to a super happy pups with zero stress. If you’re looking for a sitter who is reliable, professional, and genuinely caring, look no further than Julie! Highly recommend!

Julie was absolutely incredible, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the moment Bentley stayed with her, I felt completely comfortable and confident that she was in the best hands. I was on my first family vacation and did not have to stress about who my dog was staying with and if she was being taken care of and treated well! Julie sent multiple photos and videos every day along with thoughtful updates and thorough communication, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Bentley had the BEST time.. Julie’s daughters absolutely adored her and gave her so much love and attention (we were nervous she wouldn’t want to come home LOL!). She also has a wonderful, spacious backyard where Bentley could run and play freely. During Bentley’s stay, we even experienced a medical scare, and Julie went above and beyond in every possible way. She personally took Bentley to the vet, administered her medication, and kept me informed every step of the way. That level of care, responsibility, and compassion meant everything to me. We will absolutely be using Julie for all future trips. Knowing Bentley is safe, loved, and so well cared for is priceless. She is truly exceptional. THANK YOU!!!
