Pet care experience

Lots of love and personal care!

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I currently have two dogs and three birds of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets—they’re family! If you need boarding care, my home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to play, relax, and feel at ease. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, cozy setting, I make sure they feel safe comfortable and loved and that they feel right at home. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and safe. On walks, I make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, stimulation, and attention. During sitting or boarding, I stick closely to your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and favorite activities. I’m also available on weekends and holidays, making it easy to count on reliable care when you need it most. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always feel connected while you’re away.

We’re so happy to have Julie as our go-to doggie sitter for Ollie, our deaf and vision-impaired Cockapoo! Julie treated Ollie like he was her own, and she was so thoughtful, accommodating, and kept us in the loop with adorable videos and pictures. We’re also so glad that Ollie enjoyed being around her other dogs, Freddie and Teddy! Julie is just one of the warmest and most welcoming people my wife and I have ever met. Thank you, Julie!

Thank you so much for another wonderful stay for Charlie! I appreciate so much all of the updates, pictures and videos and was so happy he was getting along with other dogs and neighbors. I know he really enjoyed all of the love and walks you gave him. Thank you again!

Our pup had a wonderful time with Julie! She was incredibly kind and caring, and it was clear that she treated our fur baby like one of her own. We loved getting the pictures and videos while we were away—it gave us so much peace of mind. In every photo, he looked so happy and relaxed, it honestly seemed like he was smiling! We highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog boarding experience.

Julie was amazing.Our first time using Rover and 100% would book her again. She sent pictures and updates frequently and I think Oreo would have chosen to stay longer if he had the option.

Julie is the absolute best! She is so loving, caring and thoughtful. Our dog Balloo has separation anxiety, and he tends to not do well when we go on vacation. But he had a blast with Julie! She was so caring and patient with him, and even slept next to him on the couch one night when he seemed to be missing his family. She is very attuned to dogs and dedicates herself to providing love and care for her own two dogs and your dog. Julie sent us updates at least twice a day, anticipating all of Balloo's needs as well as our needs. Her two dogs are wonderful and were great companions to Balloo, providing him lots of great socialization. Julie also takes them to the park and on walks twice a day. Life with Julie is any dog's dream, and I wholeheartedly recommend her and feel so grateful that we found her.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment wherever I care for pets. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m attentive on walks, always using secure leashing and staying aware of surroundings, and in the home I make sure pets are supervised, safe, and stress-free.

Pets

A typical day

My day always starts with the dogs first. Going out for a quick walk in the am then breakfast followed by a walk in the morning. Potty breaks throughout the day (every few hours) lots of activity ball, toy play time. Evenings we do dinner then I talk them for a long walk before we end our day together.

I always follow a routine - dogs love to feel safe by having a regular routine, that could be as simple as a favorite toy or how they like to take walks and what time of day. I like to make sure any of the pets I care for have all of those special things they love to do with you.
