Pet care experience
Most of the time, I get along better with animals than humans. My first entry into the dog world was my wonderful golden mutt, Thunder. He was huge and fluffy. He totally transformed me into the animal-obsessed person I am today. The only thing dogs ask for in life is love...and that is what I will always offer your beloved furry friend. I'm a kid at heart so playing with pups really fulfills me. I also always make sure to pay attention to my older fellows - they are just as sweet and giving! Additionally, I used to volunteer at the animal rescue shelter to feed and care for newborn kittens. Currently, I volunteer with the Shelter Transport Alliance in the River Arts District. I can’t speak enough about my passion and love for animals! They make the world a better place. I am so excited to meet your pet and help out wherever!
Reviews
Gillian was a great presence to have for my sweet old dog. She took great care with her as well as the house. I’d love to have her help again!
Gillian stayed with our three dogs for our week long vacation and she was awesome! She went above and beyond caring for our elderly pit bull, administering four different meds per day and making sure she got her daily naps on the front porch. She sent lots of pics showing silly, cuddly, comfortable dogs who did not seem to miss us one bit. She was beyond respectful of our home, leaving it even cleaner and tidier than we left it. Highly recommend!!
Terrific sitter - great balance of communications and snapshots. Happy to have Gillian part of the extended pack!
Gillian took wonderful care of our fur babies and was a perfect guest. She was a trooper and dealt with both a dog and cat accident, cleaned up the messes and made sure they were okay. She calmed our nerves sending pictures and updates regularly. All three of our pets enjoyed Gillian, as did we… 100% will book with her again!
About Gillian K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets with a lot of compassion and curiosity. If they need rest, I'll provide a safe space to do so. If they need play, I'll happily participate. Whatever they need, I got!
Information Gillian K. would like to know about your pet
How they get along with other animals. Sensitive spots on skin/fur to avoid. Triggers to loud noises/particular situations. And most importantly, their all time favorite place to be pet!
A typical day
My favorite places to walk with the pups are Beaver Lake, Richmond Hill, Carrier Park (if it's not too busy!), and throughout neighborhoods like Grove Park Inn and Montford.
