Julie is so great to work with. We had a complex case with a pup having a recent broken leg, and everything went well. We immediately felt confident and comfortable having Julie in our home while we were away!

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.
