Pet care experience

I have extensive animal experience. I majored in Animal Science at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. I have experience with all types of animals from livestock (cows, sheep, pigs and poultry) to marine mammals (sea lions, seals and dolphins) to companion animals (cats, dogs and horses). I worked as a canine welfare/training technician for Guide Dogs for the Blind and took care of over 60 kenneled Guide-Dogs-to-be. This included monitoring play dates, walking, cleaning and administering medications. In addition, I trained behaviors and manners to career changed dogs to make them more adoptable. I also have extensive experience caring for marine mammals through my volunteer/internship work. I worked with the Navy's Marine Mammal Program and as a humane law enforcement officer for the San Diego Humane Society.

Jill gave me honest feedback about my sweet pup’s walk, was early, and available to chat about his walk.

We decided to transition from boarding to a drop-in sitter because even though boarding was a room with daily attention, they still didn't like it at all. We were nervous about having someone come in, but met with Jill before our trip, and knew she would take great care of our cats. She provided updates and pics, and upon our return, our cats were so happy. We think leaving them in their surroundings is so much better now, and won't hesitate to use Jill again!
