Trustworthy, Experienced, Love Dogs
Pet care experience
Non smoker with over 40 yrs dog sitting + walking dogs for my Clients. I love each dog's unique personality and pay attention to your detailed instructions. I moved to the Portland area from Ohio back in early 90's. Currently, I do not have a dog, but my lovable Lucy was a spunky energetic black lab. If transporting your dog is needed (dog walks at Port?), I drive a Subaru Crosstrek with a rubber mat. I also honestly am a square peg with a clean driving record! Washougal and Camas (east of downtown) are ideal locations.
Reviews
Jill is always so great with Zoey. I appreciate her reliability and fast communication while away. Thank you!
Jill is personable, reliable and a good communicator. She is a great resource for dog care (walks) on my long work days.
Jill has been so helpful! My fur babies love her and I love knowing they are in good hands!
Jill was wonderful, we came home to very happy dogs, and she took great care of the house and sent lots of updates. We'd happily have her watch our dogs again!
About Jill H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always schedule a Meet & Greet with prospective Clients. This provides the opportunity to meet the dog(s) in their environment and to learn about their needs. During this meeting, I wear a mask, even though I had my Covid vaccine. When I am dog sitting overnight, I am very careful to follow my Clients instructions, including locking doors and using the alarm system, if applicable.
Information Jill H. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences. Just let me know about any behavior/personality uniquenesses that I might need to know before caring for your dog. So far, I haven’t met any aggressive dogs.
A typical day
I will walk your dog on his/her typical route. I pay attention to whether a dog is social with other dogs and will avoid other dogs if this is needed. I love dog parks, and for social dogs taking them to a dog park can be the highlight of their day, other than the moment their owners return home! My current favorite walking park is along the Columbia River at the Camas-Washougal Port.

Availability
I work on my Washougal fixer house on/off, so my schedule is flexible. I am also a part time care provider for my 80 yr youngish, active mother who lives nearby.
