About: I have been a dog lover since I was little. My family had a sweet Shepherd-Boxer mix who sadly passed away within the last year, so I know how much our pets truly mean to us. I’ve also had the opportunity to dog sit for many different families over the years. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks and playtime or is more laid-back and wants to relax and cuddle, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of their routines, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. I’ll treat your pup like they’re my own! I recently left the corporate world and am transitioning into part-time work, so I currently have a very flexible schedule. This gives me plenty of availability to spend time with your pets and accommodate walks, drop-ins, and other care needs throughout the week. I’m able to work around your pet’s schedule and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship to best fit your needs! Your home is your pet’s safe space, and I want to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll follow your routines and instructions closely, be mindful of doors, gates, and other safety considerations, and give your pet plenty of attention and care. I’ll also treat your home with respect and leave it just as I found it. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident that your pets and belongings are well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages, not to mention I have experience with reptiles, amphibians, and fish. I’m available at most hours of the day to provide regular walking, feeding, or even playing with your pets. I’m currently enrolled part time in community college, so I’ll have a lot time available to take care of any pets. Any time from 7:00 AM to 10:00PM will work for me. In areas close to me, I can easily check in at least twice a day. I’m also open to staying overnight if there’s a pet that can’t be left alone for long periods.

If you choose to board your pup with me, I will ensure their safety and care in my home. I have a fenced-in backyard and a friendly pup to keep yours company. To make sure the boarding process goes smoothly, I ask that we conduct a quick meet-and-greet outside of my house so our pups can get acclimated to each other. As for how I will care for your pet in your residence, I will come with treats (with your permission, of course) and enter calmly so as not to frighten your pet(s). I will let them lead our interactions and show them love and respect.

I follow the routine you set for your pet as closely as possible like same feeding times, same walk routes, same house rules. I keep a close eye on any pets in my care at all times, I'm careful with locks/gates/doors when coming and going, and I always have a plan in place in case of an emergency.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bay Pines
Hilary is AMAZING! 😍😍 We are anxious cat Moms because we are home with our 3 cats most days. We were looking for someone who is great at communication, loves animals, and someone we vibe with. Hilary met and exceeded those on our first meet up, our cats were instantly comfortable. The first cat sitting visit went so well. Hilary sent pictures upon arriving, more of our kitties during the visit, and a message when she left. We could not be happier with Hilary. Our kitties are excited for their next hang out with her.
