Pet care experience
I've cared for many different types of animals including dogs, cats, rodents, fish and reptiles of any age. I know how hard it is to leave your pet for any amount of time, but sometimes life gets in the way. You can rest assured that your fluffy family member will be in good hands with me! No amount of attention or affection will be spared! Each day with your pet will be filled with enriching activities, relaxation, and exercise. I love each pet I care for as if they were my own. Animals have always been a major focus in my life from the time I was born. My mother is and has been an avid member of the local animal shelter and rescue community, and I've followed in her footsteps. I have volunteered at many local shelters and have been involved with trapping stray animals and feeding local colonies. I believe all animals have the right to be loved and to have a home and family that loves them. Leaving your pet at a boarding facility when you go away can be very scary, you really don't know how much personal attention each dog will get. I focus on a very specialized one-on-one care with every pet I take care of, and I like to cater your pet's stay to their own personal needs.
Reviews
Julie O would make a great caregiver for your pet. She cares for mine through high school and all her college vacations. She's mature, incredibly responsible and goes above and beyond intuitive in caring for my aging dog who is frail and has arthritis. Julie has become like family. She even texts between caring for her to inquire as to how she is. I would highly recommend her!!! Ann

Information Julie O. would like to know about your pet
I want to know everything there is to know about your dog beforehand to make sure their stay is as comfortable as possible. I have a very thorough list I like to go over with doggie parents to make sure I know their pooch as well as I can before their stay. I know the transition to a new place and a new person can be hard, so I'm always available for meet & greets prior to any stay.
A typical day
Walks are at a leisurely or active pace depending on what the dog prefers! If you have a young and energetic puppy, the pace of the walk will be faster than a walk for a older or slower dog. I always try to make the walk varied in locations, for example we will go to the park to check out the greener setting with nature and much to explore, but also the sidewalk for a change of scene. All walks remain interesting for the dog, and at their pace. I only walk 1 or 2 dogs at a time, in order to focus on providing the most enriching experience for them.
