About Julie

Hi there! My name is Julie. I'm 27 years old and I've been living in Australia since Sept 2022. I love the sunshine compared to my usual rain, however, I am completely heartbroken missing my 2 dogs at home in Ireland!
I have 2 small dogs, Joey & Frankie. Joey is 2 and is a Chihuahua and Jack Russell mix, whereas Frankie is 2 and is a Jack Russell and King Charles mix. They are honestly my babies and although I feel like a neglectful mother having left them behind, I know they are being very well taken care of at my home house with my Mum and brothers who love them dearly. I Facetime my Mummy every day just so I can see them (I think even my Mum has caught on that I'm more interested in seeing the dogs than her half of the time haha).

I'm a qualified renewable engineer who always dreamt of moving to Australia to pursue my dream of working on solar energy to create a more sustainable world. Therefore, once Australia waved the green flag to travel again after covid I knew I had to go whilst I had the opportunity. I'm currently working on a rare earth mine where I work as the Environmental Advisor. Our mine is unique and provides a huge resource of rare earth minerals that can be used for renewable technologies, e.g. wind turbines and electric cars, so I feel like I've achieved my goals so far in Aus! I work a 2:2 roster and would love to spend my R&R with some doggies.

My passion for joining Pawshake is simply to share some of the love with a cuddly friend that I once gave to my dogs. My favourite thing to do was putting my dogs into their car seat (yes, I did have a car seat for them as seen in photos) and taking them on a hike up the Irish mountains or to the beach. Walking the dogs made both them and myself very happy, plus it got my steps in too which was an additional bonus!

I truly had my dogs at home spoilt - from baking them birthday treats that were dog-suitable, buying them new coats and jumpers, taking them everywhere with me, and cuddling and loving them. I promise I will care for your pets the same way I could care for my own.

I've always loved animals and my first job was working as a dog groomer at the age of 13 and it was my favourite job ever! I never even cared when the large St. Bernard dogs covered me in drool.
I'm happy to walk, feed, wash and clean up after your dog. I have my full Australian driving license and a car so can travel as needed.

I don't have accommodation suitable to have a pet in so I'm happy to take your dog out for walks whilst you're at work or house sit. I've dogsitter/housesitted for my neighbour who had 5 dogs (3 large labradors, 1 shihtzu and 1 chihuahua) which are also included in some images. My dogs really got on with them so it always felt like I was taking my children on a playdate rather than actual work which I loved.
