Pet care experience

Hello: My name is Julio. I have been doing overnight care and dog sitting for over 15 years now. Have experience with dogs such as maltipoo, shitzu, German Shephards, english bull dogs, Labradors, chihuahua etc. I am great with dogs of any size. I will provide overnight stays and day cares and if needed will do any training the dog may need. Hope to meet you all soon!

We trusted Julio with our golden retriever while out of town for a week. We received many smiling photos of our pup assuring us she was in great hands. Julio is nice to work with and we’ll be boarding with him again.

Friendly, thoughtful and trustworthy, adjacent to a very large outdoor area. Capable of handling your energetic dog and managing various dog personalities. Has a huge cage in the main area if needed, and a clean home. Definitely booking again.

Fantastic sitter! Pump was clearly very well taken care of and I loved getting updates while I was away. Reliable, communicative, and very kind. Highly recommend!

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.
