This is my job and my passion. I have the time to give to pets and their care. Life is better spent playing with pets. I do have neighbors so I don't take barkers. Even dogs that have never been crated can be taught to sleep in a crate.

Information Jill B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet is prone to injuries, has allergies or is afraid of storms, cats, loud noises, etc. Please bring their favorite blanket or toy, their bed, crate and something that has your scent on it for them to sleep with.

A typical day

We'll go for long walks (depending on how many are here), play on agility equipment, play fetch, cuddle and have naps and work on doing tricks. At the end of the day everyone gets tucked into bed in their crate. As a rule dogs are crated at night.

I'm all about animals

Pet care experience

I have a half acre yard, agility equipment and time. I like teaching dogs tricks and to keep them mentally engaged. I spend most of the day throwing balls or a Frisbee. I make sure they take breaks because some get really excited and don't ever want to stop.

The meet and greet went very well! She is personable and appears willing and competent to care for my special furry companion. When it is appropriate, I will be comfortable in reaching out for the care she will provide.

The pups loved it at Jill’s place! A doggie vacation with a large, fenced-in yard and a resident dog for company. She is well-equipped for dog sitting with beds, pens, and gates. We received daily text updates with photos. Thanks, Jill, for taking such good care of our pups!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
