Med student and long time dog lover

Pet care experience

I'm a full time graduate student and started missing my dog at home, so signed up to sit via Rover about a year and a half ago. My boyfriend and I have been dog sitting on Rover for the past year and have loved taking care of each of them as our own. Between the 2 of us, we have a very flexible schedule to care for dogs. Have grown up in a doggy household all my life and have dog sat for numerous friends and family in the past. I'm familiar with training new puppies as well as taking care of older dogs with special needs. Very dog friendly neighborhood with ample areas for walking and willing to make special accommodations for dogs with particular needs. No small children or other pets in household. Available for short or long durations for dog sitting stays.

Julie was great with Fritz. This was my first experience with Rover and I was a bit apprehensive. Julie was very reassuring, friendly, provided updates on how Fritz was doing, and got along well with my dog. Definitely would recommend her.

Julie took great care of our 6 pound dog while we were away for a weekend. She sent us a picture during the middle of his stay showing that he settled in nicely at her home. He was in good spirits when we picked him up. We will use Julie again for our dog hotel needs!

Julie came when expected and took my Henry for a nice long walk. Everything was in order when I got home. Will definitely book again.

Julie is the best sitter someone could ever find! My dog got sick hours before I dropped her off at Julie’s house and she was totally comprehensive, she took care of her and kept me posted all the time! She also took the dog to the vet, waited patiently for everything and followed all the instructions the vet said. She takes care of dogs with love and that is what brings excellence in what she does. I still don’t know how to say how thankful I am for everything she had done!
