Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Hillary and I am a mental health therapist who believes that animals can help you heal ways that humans cannot. I grew up in a small, rural farm town and have cared for animals my whole life ranging from cats and dogs to chickens and goats. I am currently going through some big life changes and am hopeful that by helping ya’ll by taking care of your pets while you’re off on your own adventures, I can feel fulfilled and decrease symptoms of career burn out by giving pets and hugs to your doggos or kitty cats. I’m very excited to become your Rover!

Hillary was amazing with my dogs for drop in visits. She was very patient with my anxious pup and I loved getting updates on how my babies were doing while I was away. Thank you!

Hillary was nothing short of amazing. She took the absolute best care of my amazing Rose Bud. A weekend away was so much less stressful knowing Hillary was on top of my dog dad duties! Hillary thanks again for taking care of my baby!

Hillary has been amazing with my Boston Terrier, Titus! She’s been walking him for about a week and absolutely crushes it — she gets him a ton of exercise and usually covers around a mile and a half in just 30 minutes. She’s super reliable, clearly cares about what she does, and Titus always comes back happy and worn out (in the best way). Couldn’t recommend her more!
