Life-Long Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I am available to provide pet walking, drop-in animal care, and boarding services in the north-central Austin area. I have loved and lived with animals my entire 36 years of life. My family consists of my husband, David, my 7-year old daughter, Anka, and our four cats. Anka has grown up with dogs, cats and birds her entire life and is gentle and kind to animals. She enjoys helping with pet care and training and loves giving pets and snuggles. Because we have cats and a young child, dogs booked for boarding must be of a generally calm and gentle demeanor. We ask the prospective boarders come to our house for a meet & greet prior to confirming the booking to ensure a good fit for everyone. We look forward to caring for your precious fur babies! I have experience walking, training, and caring for dogs with anxiety, leash-pulling, and leash and food aggression behaviors. I am also experienced and comfortable with administering medications if necessary. We are located in northeast Austin in the 78753 area, and I have my own, reliable transportation. I am generally available during the week from 8:30AM-5:30PM, but may be able to accommodate other schedules as well. I do best with some advance notice but can sometimes accommodate same-day requests. Send me a message with your needs, and I will reply promptly.

We were very happy with the care Jill and her family gave our dog! He was clearly well cared for, and they accommodated him with their other pets. He came home happy and well !! We look forward to working with Jill and family on future boarding for our pup !

Jill and her family were amazing dog sitters and we are so grateful to them! Lily came home so happy and we got lots of updates with photos while we were away.

Information Jill L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. I am comfortable working with dogs with a variety of unique needs but need to be cognizant of them in advance so I can provide the best care possible.

A typical day

I know pets need exercise and stimulation, not just a brief potty/food break, so I make sure to take them for walks (as appropriate) letting them explore, socialize, and interact with them with toys, lots of snuggles and pets! When your pet stays with us, they are a member of our family and will be included in anything we do as approved by you.
