I can rave and rave (how much time do you have ) about Julie, her pups, and the supplies/toys. I trust Julie with anything & everything, including my pup Rue! I've learned so much from just knowing her.

Julie is awesome! I ordered two of her wraps for male dogs and she was very accommodating of my special request. Packaged beautifully and she was so sweet when I picked up! I highly recommend working with Julie!

Great care giver. Dogs have daily activities and social interaction. They get to pick toys from a toy bin filled with excellent toys from her etsy store. Recommend Julie 100%

Julie has been watching my pets for years while I'm away. I don't trust my pets with just anyone, but I always have peace of mind while they are in her care. She's wonderful and my pets love her!

Julie is the best! Our yorkie starts going crazy when we are about 5 blocks from her house. He loves it there! I am so happy we found her. I never worry that Oliver isn't getting treated like the little baby he is.

Julie is the sweetest. Defiantly has a very strong connection with animals and cares deeply for them. I trust her to watch my babies any day. She never fails to make contact on how they are doing.
