Special Needs Pet Experience
Pet care experience
Wouldn't it be nice if your furbaby could stay in the comforts of their home while you go on vacation or out of town? I can help by providing feline care services in Ann Arbor. No need to disrupt their schedule or environment. Your pet remains in their home which is their safe space. I'm flexible and consistent with their activities, routines and cares. During the day, I'm a healthcare provider and clinical researcher at the university. Outside those hours, I spend time with my Ragdoll cat, Murphy. I also possess previous employment experience at a cat hospital in Kalamazoo, Michigan. From my background at the cat hospital, my own cat, and clients I have experience administering medications and providing basic home care for special medical needs pets. Previously, I also provided dog care, but am only available for cat care at the moment.
Reviews
Jill was great with my cats and so conscientious! She handled medication smoothly, provided lots of playtime and attention, and sent great updates.
Jill is the best! She cared for our sweet kitty, Eddie like she was her own. Jill stopped in twice a day while we were out of state. And our Eddie knew how much Jill cared for her. She took to her right away and was at the door to meet Jill when she arrived each day. Jill sent us great pictures each time she visited. She kept Eddie active and kept her brushed and clean. She played with Eddie each time she visited. We feel so lucky to have met Jill through Rover and will look forward to having her here again when we take our next trip! Thank you, Jill!
Jill was a incredible companion for our Brady while we were out of town. Our friend that regularly watches our dog was unavailable and I was a little apprehensive to leave him with a new sitter. Jill completely put me at ease for our meet and greet. She was wonderful and I could tell he was happy there. Her apartment is comfortable and pet friendly. She was flexible with pick up when we were delayed returning to town which I greatly appreciated. I am so glad to have another sitter for our sweet dog. I appreciated the daily pics of Brady enjoying his stay. A+++ for Jill.
Jill is fantastic with dogs! With my dog Kelly Jill understands how to approach and handle Kelly so she is comfortable and relaxed while walking with jill. Jill is also very good at spotting aggressive dogs or situations that could make Kelly feel uneasy and create an unwanted incident when walking her and makes appropriate changes to the route to avoid these situations. Jill is also great at researching and understanding the different temperments of various breeds so she again understand how to successfully interact with most dogs.
