I miss my dog!

Pet care experience

I'm an actress, and recently left a full-time job that kept me traveling across the country doing shows. I grew up with the best dog in the world, and have always wanted to get a dog but I couldn't own a pet with my work. Now that I'm home, I would like to offer my love of dogs as a service before getting one of my own! I'm lucky enough to be friends' go-to dog-sitter and walker, which has filled the void from time to time, and makes for some great experience. I'm also a long distance runner and love outdoor activity. What better way to get out than a cuddle buddy who wants to go too?! Rover, for me, is a good excuse to hang out with a dog and get a little adventure in my life. I don't have a yard, but a decent sized back patio that is completely fenced-in and locked. It's great for hanging out and fresh air on nice evenings after a long walk. I own a pick-up truck, so I'm happy to transport dogs if necessary and if it's available. I do my best to be around a majority of the time when I'm dog sitting, so number of walks and pee breaks is always negotiable. I also like having a companion join me out in my dog friendly neighborhood for the day!

Hilary was great! I had an inconvenience and had to travel a day before my planned trip, so I contacted Hilary last minute and she didn't have any problem in coming to my place one day earlier. She was great with Leia and she kept me posted everyday telling me about their activities and sending me pictures. I really recommend Hilary!

If only I could upload a video for this. Our dog Maverick is in LOVE with Hilary. Everyday on his walk he wants to go to Aunt Hil's for loves and treats. it always takes a couple a tugs on the leash before he agrees to go home. If that doesn't give you an idea of how awesome she is with animals, then I don't know what does.

We all know how much we love when our dog gets walked by someone that truly enjoys being with them. Well, that's Hilary! Hilary is my go-to dog walker, whenever I need my dog, Jasper to get some extra exercise and love when I'm at work late. Hilary has fun taking Jasper to his favorite spots and he loves when he gets to see her. Hilary is a true pet lover who really enjoys spending time with animals. Highly recommended!

Information Hilary W. would like to know about your pet

I love all dog breeds and kinds. It's helpful to know if they tend to get along with other dogs, people, and children, so our walks can consist of safe-zones for their comfort level.

A typical day

I live right next to Wells Park in Lincoln Park. It's a favorite spot for my dog-friend Jasper and I to hang out when he stays with me. I'm also not too far away from Montrose dog-beach for those sunny days in the summer.
