Professional level animal caretaker

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs & many other animals. I have over 35 years experience caring for numerous animal species as an adult. I was a dog parent for 25 years. I currently do not have animals of my own at home which has allowed me to work as a professional live-on-site rescued animal caretaker for the last 6 years that’s provided me with extensive experience from orphaned babies to seniors, hospice & those with special medical &/or emotional needs. My primary background is with canine & equine but I also have several years caring for cats, birds & livestock (including rescued poultry, & waterfowl) at a professional level.

Julie is a real animal lover. Zelda loves her right back. I would highly recommend. We weren’t gone for very long, but Julie sent pictures along with an update.

Another absolutely awesome dog sitting session while we out for the morning! It's so nice to know our pooch was well taken care of - it always makes the time away much less stressful. Thank you Julie 😃!!

We are so glad Julie was available to watch our miniature dachshund! After our meet and greet the weekend prior we felt she was a perfect fit and that certainly held true! She is an animal advocate from the get go, so sitting with our pet was second nature for her. I received pictures and videos and know that our instructions were followed. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to request Julie again!! Thank you Julie 😃!!
