Pets are my business and pleasure!

Pet care experience

More than just walks and feeding, I can provide simple puppy training and care to fun stimulation for adult dogs to adoring care for your old best friend. Same with kittens and cats! Playing and litter scooping and whatever is needed. Let me love on your fur babies the way I would love on mine! Overnight stays at your house are available or daily visits as needed. My rates can be modified, depending on your pets’ specific needs.

Gillian is incredible. She drove down to meet Archie first, and he instantly was a puddle in her capable hands. She watched him before and after our wedding which allowed us to include him in the festivities and ceremony, truly such a phenomenal help!

Gillian went above & beyond to help me out when my flight home was canceled… she made sure my pet was well-cared for.

Gillian was very good in replying to my comments leading up to the petsitting. She watched our low-needs cat and high-anxiety rescue dog. When we got home a few hours later, both pets were in good spirits; no shaking or hiding. We will definitely call on Gillian in the future.

Gillian has been taking care of my dogs for over 20 years. My present pal pup, Archie, a Yorkie, loves her and after the initial greeting when she arrives he loves to cuddle up on her lap and get the hugs and rubs that she showers upon him. Gillian is a very special animal lover.
