Pet care experience
Before and during college and graduate school, I did a lot of dog sitting for folks in my neighborhood. I recently moved back to Wilmington to take a position at UNCW and want to spend more time taking care of our wonderful fluffy friends in the universe. I grew up with both large and small breed dogs and feel comfortable with all age ranges and breeds, and I fostered an English Bulldog for my last year in graduate school. I work full time during the week but have some flexibility to come and go as needed to ensure the best possible care for your pups. I have an undergraduate degree from UNCW and am very familiar with the Wilmington area and hold a graduate degree from Indiana University.
Reviews
Gillian took great care of my pup!
Gillian is a fantastic dog sitter. She has grown up with dogs along with fostered a dog for a year. The dog she fostered had a lot of medical needs including anxiety, which required significant dedication, responsibility and patience. Gillian spent a lot of time making sure this particular dog was well cared for and made progress in her medical care. I would recommend Gillian to care for any dog sitting opportunity because she is a dog lover through and through and will take excellent care of your four-legged kids!
Gillian and I were roommate last year where we looked after a friends dog for the whole year. Our friend was not in a position to keep her dog for the year so Stella (English bulldog) lived with us for the year. What I noticed is that Gillian has a great affinity for dogs, in particular stubborn, high maintenance dogs. Gillian loved Stella, was very patient with Stella (who was of a lot of things because of previous abuse before rescued), helped with bathing Stella (not a fan of baths), and made sure she got her proper medication. Overall I would say Gillian is very capable of taking care of dogs (especially high need dogs), and has a deep love for all the animals in her care.
I've seen Gillian take care of her three family dogs her entire life and the dogs of friends/families she is dog sitting for. Gillian is one of the most responsible and caring people I know and you can trust your pup is in perfect hands when you leave him/her in the care of Gillian.

I am a big fan of walks and runs on the greenway. I am a long distance runner and am happy to either walk or run with your pup. If your dog loves being social and active, I am big into spending times at parks and hiking trails.
