Pet care experience
I have grown up around dogs, having raised three dogs and a litter of puppies over the course of my childhood--not to mention cats, rabbits, and birds! I have also been petsitting since a very young age, and I have a wide array of experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. My practice is to care for others' pets with as much affection, responsibility, and dedication as I hope a petsitter would give to my dog. While I do work full time, I have a very flexible schedule and am usually able to modify my work times to fit any Rover jobs. I also have a sweet, 15 month old Labrador Retriever named Rosie who loves to meet and play with other dogs!
Reviews
Gillian was AMAZING to work with! She was very flexible and was great about keeping in touch. My fiancé and I drove up from out of town and needed a place to keep our pup for the day and it couldn’t have worked out more perfectly. I highly recommend Gillian—and her sweet dog Rosie!
Gillian is a super responsible caregiver and highly sought-after for pet care. She grew up with a house full of dogs, cats, a parrot and rabbit, and is caring and loving and prioritizes your pet as her #1 responsibility. I can't recommend her enough--you and your dog will be thrilled you asked Gillian to take care of him/her.

Information Gillian G. would like to know about your pet
While I do not have any breed preferences, I would like to know if the dog is friendly around other people and dogs, house trained, if they have any destructive tendencies (chewing things up, eating food off the counter, etc.), and how well they walk or if I should be prepared for some pulling. As long as I am prepared, I am open to sitting for just about any dog!
A typical day
I love hiking, and would love to take your dog on a hike with my dog if they would enjoy that! Otherwise I frequently take my dog on long walks and love to throw the ball for her, so this would certainly extend to any other dogs I'm watching. My pup Rosie and I are up for anything!
