Information Jill C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know the following: How are they on a leash? Are they reactive to other dogs or people? Are there any special words you use for treats? walks? potty? Do they chew things or poop/pee in the house? Where do they sleep at night and during the day? Would it be ok for them to be off leash at a dog park/beach.

A typical day

I love to walk and take the dogs on little adventures in the car. I also love just chilling on the couch and watching TV.

Pet care experience

I love dogs and I love walking! I just move to Maine and I am looking to walk, board or just love on your dog! My 14 year old rescue Frenchie, Clarabell (pictured above with the most sass) went over the rainbow bridge so I am looking to love on other people's dogs because I can't imagine getting another. She was my puppy soulmate. (That sounds weird, I promise I am not super weird) Anyway, I want to be around dogs and still have a lot of dog love to give. I work from home so I am around a lot. If you have questions, reach out!

Jill was wonderful with our Chloe! We so appreciated knowing how well Chloe was being taken care of while we were away and hope that she can return to Jill’s home in the future.

Jill gave my dog, Finn, an amazing day when I had to travel for work. I always hate to leave him for long stretches of time, but I didn't have to worry at all because Jill gave him walks, took him to the beach, and even kept him company! When I came back from my long day of traveling, Finn was happy and tired from having a great day. Grateful to Jill for taking such excellent care of him!

Jill is a friendly, responsible caregiver. She followed my detailed instructions, including medications and treats, and I could relax knowing my older dog, Gus, was in her care. I will definitely ask Jill again.
