Information Julie L. would like to know about your pet

How do they walk on a leash and react to other people and animals? What’s their motivation? Food, play, head scratches? What home and pet safety might I need to know?

A typical day

Breakfast and exercise can help beat away that sleep feeling before settling into the day. Midday breaks involve potty and play time before a longer end of day hangout! The order of events can be adjusted to each pets needs.

I had to cut sitting time short due to unexpected weather event. Julie was very cool about it.

Julie accepted my last-minute booking without hesitation, and I'm so grateful she was available! She was incredibly responsive, kept me updated, followed every instruction perfectly, and took the sweetest pictures of my dog. It was clear my dog felt comfortable and loved being with her. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. I truly wish I could give more than 5 stars!

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.
