Pet care experience
I am energetic and strong (if your dog is the kind to take you for walks). I regularly walk and care for my grandpa's terrier, who can be quite difficult and assertive at times. I helped to retrain him, to obey my grandpa, following the death of his primary care giver, my grandmother. My family and I owned a dog in the past; he died at 16. In his later years he was blind, deaf, and on multiple medications. I made sure paths were clearly and from the door before walks. I also made certain me took his medications (by hiding them in peanut butter) every morning. I have recently cared for a family friend's dog, while she was temporally living in a building that did not allow animals. I enjoy being around dogs of all ages and have experience providing care to a wide range of abilities.
Reviews
Julie was so sweet with our anxious pup and incredibly responsible. She stayed in our apartment while we were away, and she did an awesome job managing our dog’s routine, responding to his needs, and keeping an eye on our place. We’d be THRILLED to have her stay with our dog when we go on vacation next!
Julie did a great job taking care of my senior pup, Eevee! I reached out with not even two hours notice and she was extremely accommodating and enthusiastic. She’s responsible and very friendly. She sent me pictures of her time with Eevee and made sure to keep me updated. Definitely recommend!
Julie was great with our dog. She was very flexible and was willing to work around my crazy schedule. Defiantly asking Julie to walk our dog again!
Amazing walker. Very reliable and trustworthy.

Information Julie P. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting or walking your dog, I would like to know if your dog is comfortable around strangers and other dogs or animals. I would also like to know if your dog has any triggers that might cause unexpected behavior.
A typical day
This past year, I moved from Fenway to South Boston. This neighborhood has lots of green spaces including 2 fenced in dog parks. There is also the beaches, perfect for splashing on a hot day. Being this close to greenery would not stop me from traveling to the Charles River Esplenade for a walk or run or the hills of the North End. We could also travel to the Sommerville Dog Park to make some new friends!
