Pet care experience
We're a couple in our thirties with one dog. We love to have four-legged visitors. It's a great way to extend our little pack! Polly Patches, our dog, likes having friends over but only if they are calm. She's an old girl and tends to get very grouchy around dogs that are less than 3 years old or very energetic. For that reason, we do not accept puppies or high-energy dogs. I work from home when we have a dog stay with us, so they are sure to get lots of love, attention, and walks. We live in an apartment and can comfortably accommodate 2 small dogs or one medium/large dog. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover my entire life and a dog owner for twenty years. I love them all and I've been the proud dog-parent of two schnauzers, a border collie - australian shepherd mix, and a pointer. I've had cats too! I used to have 3 dogs but now we are down to just the one. My husband won't let me get more but he does let me sit through Rover so I can borrow other peoples dogs for short periods of time! My experience administering medication Yes. Not a problem at all.
Reviews
Hilary was amazing! She watched Simon about a month ago while my boyfriend and I took a much needed weekend trip. Hilary was kind, capable and a good cuddler for Simon. Polly Patches, (Hilary's dog) is also the sweetest thing. Simon came home happy and healthy.
Hilary took great care of our dog, SHEA. She sent videos and pictures daily and gave us great info on how she was doing. We've had SHEA stay twice and it's been great! I highly recommend Hilary!
This visit for my dog Reese was such a treat. He was an abused rescue and I was a nervous mom never before trusting anyone to care for him. However with a vacation on the the way I knew I couldn't take him. I find Hilary and Eric and I couldn't have been happier They let me know on a daily basis how Reese was doing sent pics that showed he was being loved and cared for. Thank you so much for the piece of mind and Reese didn't wwant to leave his new friend Polly Patches. Thank you thank you. I will definitely use this home again and recommend them to anyone who wants to leave there dog with a good loving home for a couple of days.
This was my dog, Stump second visit with Hilary, her husband and their dog. He enjoyed it just as much if not more than he did with his first visit back in May. They treat him like he's their own dig. He sleeps with them (as he does with me), they take him in walks which he loves, and play with him. She sends me daily updates and pictures. He definitely will be staying there again when I need a sitter. I know that he's well taken care of when he's there and can relax.

Information Hilary I. would like to know about your pet
I'd love to know how your dog likes to play and exercise and whether or not he/she is good with other dogs. Does your dog have a strict schedule? Is your dog on a special diet? How old is he/she? Do you crate or let them roam free? Has your pooch ever shown any aggression to other dogs or people?
A typical day
I'll take your dog on regular walks in the large courtyard in front of my building. On occasion we may also visit the dog park around the corner. If your dog stays with us over the weekend we will likely go on hikes. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Anywhere it wants. Don't forget to bring their bed (if they have one)! Time I'll spend with your dog Quite a bit. I can work from home and if there's a new dog in the house I will be at home with it! I love to take the pooches out for walks and hang out on the couch and snuggle. When I do leave the house it is typically for 3 hours or less.
