Safety, trust & environment

I have a large crate and access to smaller crates if needed. Otherwise, pets are welcome to roam free indoors all day & night. I'm in a 2 bedroom, garden-style condo. with a small patio that pups can be on a lead if they like. Otherwise, we can go to a little-known dog park that is grass surface and play for an hour every day (depending on weather). In your home, I can play with your pup, feed, medicate, whatever is needed. Overnights at my home are easy with last minute bookings. Thanks for reading :)

Information Jill C. would like to know about your pet

I can accommodate most dogs except aggressive types, hyperactive & strong dogs that pull excessively, and dogs with active diarrhea. What makes your dog comfortable? Do they like any special treats or toys? Is your pup toy-protective or do they like to share? I always separate dogs at meal time just in case of food aggression.

A typical day

I really enjoy playing with pups so we spend a lot of time outside and go on long walks around the lake. When appropriate, I go to a great grass dog park where we play fetch and I can run around and chase the pups, kick & throw balls for them, play tug-of-war...I'm just as active as the dogs & they bring me great joy & laughter! :)

Passion for Pups

Pet care experience

I've always been the family, friend, & neighbor go-to for pet care! I'm friendly, reliable, and I have a huge heart for furry friends. Your baby will be happy and free to roam the home all the time and play with an energetic, pup-friend (my boxer/hound rescue). Daily walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of love are guaranteed. I am comfortable administering medicine, and your pup is welcome on the furniture. Any questions just ask!

Another wonderful stay with Jill! Leo was super active with long walks and lots of play with Bruce. Jill carefully picked him up and dropped him off, sent plenty of communication and pictures, and gave Leo lots of love and treats. Couldn’t be happier!

Jill is absolutely amazing. Extremely communicative, kind, and caring. We got pictures and Leo got along with Bruce so well. We are so relieved to have found her!

Jill is an amazing sitter who we’d definitely use again! She was professional, caring and knowledgeable. She sent regular updates and we could see how happy Scout was each day. Thank you Jill!
