About
For as long as I can remember, animals, especially dogs, have been my greatest joy. That love inspired me to start Paws First Pet Care, where my goal is to treat every pet like my own. I offer dog boarding, overnight sitting in clients’ homes, and dog walking, making sure your pets get the comfort, care, and attention they deserve, whether they’re at my home or in yours. I also care for cats, chickens, and other animals, so no family member is left out! With 5+ years of experience, I’m fully insured, bonded, and pet CPR certified, so you can feel confident your pets are in safe, loving hands. At Paws First Pet Care, your pets always come first🩷

Julia was SO accommodating. I am moving to the area and needed a dog sitter on short notice, and she was willing to get me out of a bind same-day. Her whole family is lovely and all took to taking care of my buddy immediately, and made me certain he'll be well-cared for. They even invited me to dinner! You could get worse care for your pets but I'm not sure you can get better. Julia and her family will take care of them as if they were their own.

Julia is a very kind and capable pet sitter who genuinely loves animals. My dogs and cat were very happy while I was away! She is professional and prompt when communicating which makes working with her easy and pleasant. I will definitely ask her to sit again.

Julia took care of my two pups while I was having my daughter. They where so happy there and when they came home. She kept in contact and sent pictures throughout the time my dogs where with her. This was the first time Iv left my dogs and she made it less stressful for me. She took them in with short notice as well. I would definitely recommend Julia to other people looking for pet care and would use her again if the situation arose.

Julia took great care of our 3-month-old puppy and older dog while we were away! She was very responsive and dependable, and the dogs were very happy when they came home. I would absolutely recommend her pet care services!
