Safety, trust & environment

While your pup is in my care, I am more than happy to focus solely on your pup according to wants and needs you mention. If your dog needs to be active, I’d love to incorporate their needs to be physical and get a workout along with them!:)

Information Gillian W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs or behaviors I should look out for, or any special medications and conditions I should keep an extra close eye on:) I will also be more than happy to accommodate pups that will need to be babied such as having to be tucked in at a certain time or having to be spoon fed! Please let me know your pup’s routine and I will do it in your place when you are unable to 😊

A typical day

I would love to create a routine specialized for your specific pet(s). If they are big sleepy cuddle bugs, I’d be more than happy to laze around with them as I get my studies done. If your dog is more active and needs more mental stimulation, I would be more than willing to take them on a lovely walk and allow them to sniff to their hearts desire or be more one on one active with them by playing games like fetch.

Pet care experience

I do accept last-minute requests and will always try my best to accommodate you and your dog’s needs whenever possible.🙌 I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and started pet sitting while I was in high school. I’ve been an active Rover sitter for almost a year now. I’m comfortable administering certain medications to dogs and cats, including oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, ear cleanings, and nail trims. Our family dog, Mila, has a history of seizures, so I’m also familiar with seizure protocols and know how to respond appropriately if one occurs. My overnight rate includes basic care and simple medications, such as pills, eye drops, topical creams, ear drops, ear cleanings, teeth brushing, grooming, etc. While I’m typically a homebody, I may need to step out during the day for scheduled walks or drop-in visits with other clients. I always guarantee that I’ll be staying overnight in your home and provide thorough physical and mental enrichment for your pups. If your pet requires constant care throughout the day, I offer this for an additional $100 on top of my overnight rate. And on weekends only. Constant care applies to stays that require me to be on the premises for 21+ hours per day. Short outings of 1–2 hours to help other clients do not fall under constant care and won’t incur the additional fee.😊

I can’t say enough great things about our dog walker! She is absolutely amazing with our dogs- so kind, patient, and attentive. One of my dogs struggles with anxiety and usually takes a long time to trust new people, but she approached him with such calmness and understanding that he warmed up to her almost immediately. Now he actually gets excited when he sees her and looks forward to his walks every time! She goes above and beyond to make sure both dogs are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. She’s dependable, communicative, and always provides thoughtful updates after each walk. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that my dogs are in such loving and capable hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals and takes the time to connect with them, look no further, she’s the best!

Gillian takes great care of Pringle while I’m at work, and I really appreciate how punctual and responsive she is. I feel at ease knowing Pringle is in good hands, and I definitely plan to be a regular client!

Gillian is such a funny and outgoing person, but is also one of the most kind-hearted individuals I know. She has such a personable personality who can get along with others easily, and has great interpersonal skills! Regarding pets, she's got a big heart and a soft spot for all furry, four-legged friends. She is very attentive to making sure the pets' needs and wants are taken care of in a timely and gentle manner. Overall, Gillian is a very caring and responsible person and pet owner herself, so she'd be the perfect caregiver for your pet!
