Hilary works from home and most dogs we watch enjoy keeping her company in her home office during the day. We have a fully fenced backyard where they can take as many potty and exercise breaks as they want, in addition to going on walks. We'll try to maintain your dog's daily routine as best we can.

Information Hilary R. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if your dog has any weird quirks or habits that you are used to by now but that might worry us if it's our first time watching them.

A typical day

Your dog will get lots of exercise at our house! I'm an early riser and will take your dog on a 1/2 mile+ walk or run around our Reedy Creek neighborhood as soon as I get up and then again as needed throughout the day. I'm happy to keep your dog uncrated; the first floor of our house is pretty much open to roam.

Pet care experience

We aren't quite ready to get our own dog yet but we'd love to take care of yours! We have a home with a fenced yard and room to play. We love going on long walks around our neighborhood and going hiking nearby. Hilary works from home Mon-Fri and loves having canine company. We typically only host one dog at a time (unless two dogs come from the same family) and we appreciate the opportunity to meet you and your dog(s) beforehand (so unfortunately we can't take same day requests when a meet and greet is not possible). We have two pet birds too, who have proved to be a great source of entertainment for the dogs we host. We also have a four year old who loves dogs! We are privately insured, so you can have peace of mind that your pup is safe with us!

Hilary was great! She sent pictures and updates and Annie came back home happy. We will definitely use her again!

Our dog Beau had a great time with Hilary and her family. She gave him lots of attention, took him on may walks and made sure he was eating and drinking appropriately. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter.

Hilary was very thoughtful of our older dog. She took very good care of him and we are happy to recommend her.
