About: Coming from a family that loves animals, I’ve always been around and taken care of pets. My experience has been walking/petsitting for family and friends, mostly dogs but occasionally cats. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I have a very flexible work schedule. I am currently a student in flight school, which only requires short daily in-person commitment, so I am very flexible with timing. Most of my studying is done online so I am able to care for your pet at any time it is convenient for you. I am unable to provide care in my own apartment due to its size, but I am very clean and respectful of clients homes when visiting for care. I am a great communicator and will respond quickly as well as follow any requests or instructions you make.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely just love being around them. I’m very active, love going on walks, and your dog will definitely get plenty of attention and exercise with me! I’ll treat your pup like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I am currently a graduate student at USF with a consistent schedule. I love to exercise and go for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise with me if they like it! I do a lot of work from home, so will be home with your dog too! When I do have clinic or class, it’s only 2-4 hours at a time I will be gone. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while they’re in my home. I love spending time with dogs, so they’ll get lots of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I also try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible so they feel relaxed and at home.

About: With a lifelong passion for animal welfare, I bring extensive, hands-on experience to pet care. Having personally raised two cats and two dogs from their earliest stages as kittens and puppies, I possess a deep, intuitive understanding of the unique developmental needs, patience, and specialized attention required at every life stage. Beyond my personal experience, I have long served as the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends, building a reputation for reliability, compassion, and unwavering dedication. Whether navigating complex feeding routines, managing energy levels, or providing gentle, nurturing companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. My approach combines professional diligence with the heartfelt devotion that comes from a genuine love for animals, ensuring that every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and truly cherished while their owners are away. As an active online student, my schedule is naturally flexible, allowing me to provide high-quality, on-demand pet care. I specialize in one-time, high-attention visits that offer families total peace of mind when their regular routines are interrupted. Because my academic workload shifts weekly, I am excellent at communicating my upcoming openings and maintaining a reliable, professional standard for every single visit. I am eager to provide tailored, loving care for your pets whenever your needs arise. My care philosophy is centered on consistency, safety, and individual connection. Whether I am in my own home or yours, I maintain a structured, calm environment that prioritizes the pet's well-being above all else. For Client-Home Visits: I prioritize keeping the pet’s routine exactly as they know it. Before any visit, I conduct a thorough 'pet briefing' to understand their unique personality, favorite play styles, specific dietary needs, and any health protocols. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect, ensuring that I am not just 'checking in,' but providing meaningful enrichment and companionship. With experience raising my own pets from infancy, I am highly attentive to environmental hazards and subtle changes in behavior. I am dedicated to maintaining a clean, secure space and providing undivided attention throughout my time with your pet.My goal is to provide a seamless experience where your pet feels safe, engaged, and truly loaded even if it is just for a single, high-quality visit.

About: Connecting with animals has been my life journey. I have extensive experience and knowledge with all kinds of animals, domestic and exotic. I have had cats, dogs, rats, birds and the occasional rescue of baby raccoons, opossums and turtles. Right now due to my father’s health, I resigned from corporate and have made the decision to care for him. Initially, I took a leave of absence. Prior to these current issues, I always took my girls ( Lucy & Deja ) up to spend weekends all together anyway. Since my mom passed 3 years ago that routine was in place. I am available to be of service to my fellow animal parents and ensure you that I come with a lot of love and respect for your babies. 🌼 I currently am living in a condo with my dogs Lucy and Deja. They get long walks and playtime with their friends in the neighborhood. We all sleep together and I have a gaggle of cats/kittens (from a feral pregnant stray) I took in. When I had my house of 30 years, we had a fenced yard and everyone I know calls me when they have animal “issues”. I have been contacted through work internal team chats to go help the crow that flew into a window (at work). I have carriers and necessary supplies to help in these situations. That crow went immediately to Blue Pearl ( who will take in anything and help save it, humanely euthanize it, or then send to wildlife rehabilitation centers. I can care for all animals and want to be there for your pets.

About: I got my first pet in middle school and have cared for animals ever since… dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and even rats. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and check in on their pets. I’m very attentive to routines, personalities, and comfort levels, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether they’re energetic, shy, senior, or a little sassy, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I balance work and school, but pet care fits easily into my routine. I’m available most weekdays with the ability to do check-ins throughout the day as needed. My weeks are very flexible, so I can accommodate longer visits, walks, or drop-ins to match your pet’s normal schedule and keep their routine consistent. I’ve had my dog for going on 8 years and my handsome kitty for 3, and they truly are my babies. Caring for them daily has taught me how important routine, patience, and attention are for pets to feel safe and happy. I treat every animal I watch with that same level of love, care, and responsibility, like they’re part of my own family.

Julianna was amazing with my English bulldog, Sabel! She communicated clearly throughout the entire walk, kept me updated, and made me feel totally at ease. Bulldogs can be a bit particular, and she handled Sabel with patience and care. I could tell Sabel was comfortable and happy, which means everything to me. I’d absolutely recommend Julianna to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and trustworthy dog walker. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.

Alexa was very kind and compassionate, and she knew how to communicate with my dog on his level, which was super important for me when picking a dog walker. My dog is very picky with who he trusts, but he gravitated towards Alexa because she made him feel comfortable. Alexa is also very easy to work with, and she was always quick to reply. If you want a reliable dog walker with a big heart for animals, Alexa is the way to go!
