Pet care experience

Now a mostly retired zoo professional, I have decades of experience in animal care, including having dogs for 30 years and caring for the pets of friends and family. I have a special fondness for seniors and have adopted several over the years. I am certified in pet CPR and I am volunteering at Muttville! Being in the presence of animals is my greatest joy.

Jill was super patient with my nervous senior pup. She really gave her time and space to warm up, and was great at giving updates throughout her stay! Thank you, Jill!

I love having Jill babysit Kony! He never wants to leave when I get him! Kony went back to her couch and wouldn't come with me. Thanks, Jill, for making him so comfortable.

Oh, where do I start with how much my dog Kony loved being with Jill and her family? First, he walked right up to her door without even noticing I was still there! When I picked him up, he did NOT want to come home with me because he wanted to stay with Jill. I literally had to drag and carry my 50 lb dog out of the house and into the car because he was treated so well at Jill’s. I can now fully trust her to watch Kony weekly and for overnight boarding. I’ll definitely be telling all my dog-parent friends to book her fast — she’s popular for a reason! Thank you, Jill. I truly can’t thank you enough. See you soon!

Absolutely fantastic. My pup had a bad stomach leading up the stay and we were both able to modify dates due to needing to take him to the vet, AND she still took in our sick dog! He’s a bit anxious but was very happy with them. Already booking his second stay.
