Highlights
Pet care experience
Leave your paws in good hands!
Hi, I’m Hilary! I am a healthcare worker and animal lover who will make sure your pet isn’t missing out on any fun or cuddles while you’re away. My goal is to put your mind at ease with a dependable, consistent schedule and frequent updates. A little about me - I’ve lived with pets my whole life and I’m currently a proud mom to two rescue kittens. I feel comfortable working with cats and small to medium/large dogs of all ages, with a variety of medical conditions. My experience ranges from caring for kittens and puppies to senior cats and dogs, including pets with special diets and disabilities. I am open to any breed of dog and have especially extensive experience with chihuahuas and golden retrievers. I am available for walks, hikes, play time, overnight stays at your house, or quick check-ins. I’d love to get to know you and your pet, so feel free to message me with any questions!

Ratings and reviews
Hilary P. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Hilary took wonderful care of my dog, Gracie, while I was away. Although there were a few scheduling challenges due to her unexpectedly starting a new job, she was upfront about everything, communicated well throughout, and took full accountability. I really appreciated her honesty and willingness to work through the situation. Most importantly, Gracie absolutely adored her. It was obvious she received so much love, attention, and excellent care. Hilary followed all of my instructions carefully, kept me updated, and made sure Gracie was comfortable and happy. Knowing my pup was in such caring hands gave me real peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Hilary to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter.
Hilary did an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were away in New York City for five nights. She took wonderful care of both our puppy, Nico, and our older fur baby, Toto. Hilary was exceptional—attentive, reliable, and highly communicative throughout our trip. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Beyond that, she is genuinely friendly, warm, and easy to work with. We returned home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. We highly recommend Hilary and would absolutely trust her with Nico and Toto again in the future!
Hilary was great and my timid little girl warmed right up to her immediately.
Hillary was absolutely amazing. 🥹 This was the first time I left my baby for 5 whole days, so I was honestly really nervous, but she made the entire experience feel so safe and reassuring. She sent me the sweetest little updates and reports, kept me informed, and you could genuinely tell she cared about Killu and paid attention to him. That meant everything to me. He looked happy, comfortable, loved, and well taken care of the entire time. As a dog mom who is VERY protective and anxious about leaving her dog, I can truly say I would trust her again without hesitation. I’m beyond grateful for how patient, caring, and thoughtful she was with him. 💛🐾
Hilary was wonderful with our pup. She communicated frequently with us and left our home in great shape. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again. Thank you, Hilary!!

Schedule
Because I work full time, my availability for walks and drop-ins is limited to evenings and weekends. I also accept house sitting requests for the weekends or for pets who are accustomed to being home alone during the day on weekdays. My house sitting rates include walks and cover up to 16 hours of care. Constant care of up to 24 hours is charged at an additional 50% of the nightly rate.
