Dogs Best Friend!

Hi! My name is Gillian and I am always happy to make a new furry friend and make sure they are well taken care of when they need it! I truly believe that these pets are our babies and we need to treat them like family. I have spent my life surrounded by pets. Almost all of my friends have dogs and I love making sure that they are happy, taken care of, getting enough exercise and having enough fun! Whenever someone says to me "oh no, you pet them, now you can't stop!" - that is like telling me Ive got a new BFF 😂 I love watching the progress in the little guys and gals. My previous dog, I had for 14 years. She was a chocolate lab. The longest I have ever watched someone else's dogs would have to be 6 months watching two fifteen year-old, untrained miniature poodles. I am certain that after that time, I can handle anything anyone throws at me. Let me know your preferences, favourite walk routes, favourite petting spots and if you prefer on or off leash, and we can make this the perfect thing for your fur baby! I love dogs, and dogs love me, too. I am a great friend and protector for any dog, any animal really, big or small! I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur family!

Right after our meet and greet, my little tough guy and I were very comfortable with Gillian. While it's very hard to leave your furry friends behind for a few days, it's great to know that there are still genuinely nice and caring people out there that will treat your pet like their own. And that was exactly my experience with Gillian. From the first to last check-in, Gillian was punctual, always keeping me up to date on what Jax and her did during her visits, took some awesome pics to share, and really kept my mind at ease knowing Jax is being taken care of to the fullest. Thank you so much Gillian for taking care of Jax, he misses you more than he missed me lol! Highly recommended.

Gillian stayed with our Ed for a week and it looked like he had a really fun time! You can tell she really loves dogs and has just as much fun as they do. She was always sending updates and awesome photos. Thanks for taking such good care of our boy while we were away!

Gillian was great! I loved that I was able to see when she arrived at my house, where they went on their walk and when she was done! She also sent photos of Oliver on the walk.

I would just like to know their favourite activities, toys, treats and places to be pet! Anything they don't like and if there is anything to avoid. I don't have any breed preference, I love all dogs. My personal dream dog is an English Bull Mastiff, but I also have a few other favourites... soft-coated wheaten terriers, any kind of bulldog or mastiff, Pomeranians, greyhounds, Yorkshire terriers and border terriers are just a few of my favourites!
