Dog lover w/ flexible schedule!

Pet care experience

Hey everyone! My name is Hillary, 29, and I am one of the biggest dog lovers you'll ever meet. I've grown up with dogs in my family my entire life. Five years ago, I adopted a dog of my own- a super friendly and active Yorkie mix (who gets along with dogs of all shapes & sizes)- and he has taught me so much about love, patience and responsibility. I am a super active person who will spend lots of time outdoors with your dog on walks, hikes, and at the dog park (with owner's permission.) I’m currently a grad student with flexibility in my schedule for dog and/or house sitting, drop in visits and walks. (Unfortunately I can’t sit dogs at my place.) I promise to treat your dog like my own and can guarantee that your pup will be happy and safe. I can be as strict or as laid back as you'd prefer when it comes to obedience. If there's anything else you'd like to know about me, don't hesitate to reach out and ask!

Hillary & Cam were great with Lennon! She sent pictures throughout her stay and took many trips to the dog parks. Cam and Lennon became the bestest of buds!

Hillary goes above and beyond as a dog mother, therefore I know she would be the best pet sitter. I once read her instructions that she left for her dog sitter, and I was stunned! She was so detailed and her instructions were incredibly thought-through. Reading this, I realized how much she cares for her dog Cam. Her instructions included things like anticipating when he would need to use the bathroom considering his feeding amount and time, descriptions of his energy levels per certain activities, lists of indicative behaviors for feeding, bathroom, and nurture needs; and so much more. As a close friend and dog-owner, I know that Hillary would give the same love and attention to my pet as she gives her own.

Since I have known Hillary, I have found her to be extremely professional. She has great rapport with my dogs and they are comfortable with her, even in my absence. Her true love and affection for the dogs in her care, allows me to feel at ease when shes caring for my pups. I have no hesitation recommending Hillary as a caregiver. I feel completely secure leaving her in control of my dogs when I am gone, and know that I will return that neither of them will be stressed out and nervous. Hillary is truly great!
