Availability

I live in Russellville and work remotely for an organization out of Little Rock. I do spend Mondays in Little Rock and have other occasional day trips to Little Rock or Northwest Arkansas. I have quite a bit of autonomy and therefore I am usually available any time. I also don't mind working from your home if I need to be available for your animals for more than the standard 30-minute to hour time period.

Safety, trust & environment

Due to having several animals myself, I am unable to keep your babies in my own home. However, I am more than happy to take care of your pets in your own home and neighborhood. Your pet's safety, comfort, and trust are my top priorities. I'm happy to follow any instructions for your pet's care, including their preferences for food, treats, toys, outside play, walks, and sleeping spots. I'll ensure they feel loved and comfortable. Please provide me with your vet's contact information, so I can ensure prompt medical attention in case of an emergency. Let me provide your pets with the care they deserve, in an environment where they feel at home.

Information Jill B. would like to know about your pet

Your pet's well-being is my top priority. I always have a Meet & Greet with you and your animals before booking to ensure we're a good fit. During this visit and prior to the booking itself, I need to know about any special needs your furry friend might have. Whether it's dietary restrictions, medication schedules, favorite toys/treats, or specific behaviors, please share these details with me so I can ensure a comfortable and tailored experience for your pet. Clear communication will help me create a safe and enjoyable environment, guaranteeing that your pet's needs are met and exceeded throughout their stay.

A typical day

A typical day with the dogs I care for is a delightful mix of outdoor fun and cozy moments. We begin our day with a morning walk so the dogs can explore, stretch their legs, and enjoy the fresh air. I make sure to have waste bags and verify that they do their business and of course clean up after them as well. During the day I love to give them lots of attention and affection, depending on their preferences. They'll receive gentle pets, belly rubs, and calming companionship. As the day winds down, we head out for another leisurely walk to unwind and enjoy the peaceful evening atmosphere. Each day is personalized to cater to the unique needs and personalities of the dogs in my care, ensuring they have a fulfilling and enjoyable experience. Being without their humans can be a stressful experience, but I do everything in my power to make sure the doggos are happy, calm, and safe.

Loving, Available Pet Care

Pet care experience

As a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet parent, I understand just how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for animals — including cats, dogs, a horse, rodents, fish, and even an iguana — I bring calm, capable, and loving care to every visit. Currently, I share my home with three crazy kitties and one goofy, lovable dog named Finn. Our cats include Tesseract, the baby and yet somehow the boss, a three-year-old tabby; Box, a chatty Korat (we recently discovered this rare breed and are smitten); and our special, questionable, but sweet nine-year-old void keeps us safe from all the things we cannot see. Finn joined our family in late 2023 after the loss of our beloved Golden Retriever mix, Riley, who passed at 14 years old. Finn is his own kind of joy — playful, silly, and full of heart. While we’ll always carry Riley’s memory, Finn has brought new energy and laughter into our home. We also said goodbye to two of our senior cats — Edie in January 2025, and Fran in February 2025 — and through their care, among many before, I added extensive experience supporting aging pets and managing medical needs, including administering medications and navigating serious illness with love and presence. As a picky pet parent myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your beloved animals behind — which is why I go above and beyond to make both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll treat your animals with the same attentiveness, affection, and respect I give my own, and I’m always happy to share updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Let me be your pet’s second family — I’ll care for them like they’re my own.

Jill was awesome! She took and sent the most adorable pictures of our sweet boy while we were gone. She took him on walks and played with him in the yard. She even washed the bedding after she left. She was amazing! Highly recommend! We will definitely request her again.

Jill sent pictures without me requesting them. I never had to worry that they we’re all safe because of this attention. My animals loved her. My house was in perfect condition. She is absolutely great!! Would recommend!!!!!
