Dogs are my passion!!
Pet care experience
I graduated recently from WWU with a Human-Animal Behavioral Psychology major and have mentored under a service dog trainer and basic dog trainer. With a year experience at a local doggy daycare/boarding facility and a short time at shelter/training facility I learned valuable skills for almost every breed and age that I will use to help care for your pup as if they were my own. My favorite thing in this world is getting one on one time with a dog to get to know them and then adventuring with them by my side! Check out my Instagram for some adventures with pups!(: @gils_happy_place Growing up we had a rescue Australian Shepherd mix, Annie, for 15 years. Sadly she passed away, but don’t worry she lived a long happy 18 years of life filled with lots of snuggles! Because I had her so long I learned how to work with senior dogs and through working at the daycare/boarding facility I learned to work with all ages and breeds. I will gladly take your pup on as long of a walk as needed because what’s better than dog’s and exercise! I also have a passion in dog photography and adventures so I will gladly send you photos of your precious doggo during your trip! I dream for the day when I can adopt my own, but until then I will take care of your dog as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your cute dogs as well!
Reviews
Seriously so good with dogs! Made sure our pup played and had plenty of adventures! 12/10 Would book again!
Gillian has years of pet experience and it really paid off taking care of my old man of a dog for several days in her homr. He came home happy and healthy. She sent lots of pictures and he was having a good time.
Gillian, Thanks for all the fun photos of Chloe. She is a lucky pup to have you for daily walks. You are a lifesaver! Bellingham dog families don't need to look any further than Gillian for amazing animal care.
This was my first experience with Rover and it was excellent. Gillian took great care of our dog. We will be back for sure!!
About Gillian N.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat them as my own and keep an eye on their body language in case they’re trying to tell me something. I build my day around them to ensure they feel safe and comfortable by seeing if they need a walk or just some down time. I typically arrange my room depending on their needs so they feel cozy and secure.
Information Gillian N. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences, if it’s an animal, I will love it! I would just need to know whether or not I should look out for biting, if him/her is good with other dogs/people, if him/her is potty trained, and if off leash is an option! Any obstacle is okay, I’ll just need to know what to work with!(:
A typical day
We have an open backyard for quick potty, zoomies, and nature watching breaks. I love taking dogs out to explore nature so we could also drive to some local trails to explore the forest if your dog is comfortable with other dogs/people. I can also do anything else you have in mind, I’m pretty open and just want to make you and your pup happy!

Availability
Currently in the midst of job searching and relocating, but until then I’m staying at my parents who always love doggo friends too! I’ll have lots of time to take your dog out and explore and then cozying up to continue my job hunt.
