Pet care experience

Pet Lover you can trust!

I have pet sit on and off since high school. I love animals and am very attentive to the needs of each unique pet! I grew up with a dog, have a 6 year old Bernedoodle now, and am looking forward to spending time with yours! I have been an active rover sitter since 2020.

House Sitting • Sep 14, 2026

Jill was not just not good, she was great. This was my first time booking her. It was an emergency booking, my scheduled sitter had to back out seventeen before I was leaving for a long weekend out of cell service. I reached out, she replied quickly and offered a time for a Meet and Greet. So besides being very accommodating to my needs, she was able to work with Wrigley. He was badly abused before I got him, at times he needs patience and understanding. The sitting went well. Wrigley was well cared for and I got lots of updates and pictures. OK, I was out of cell coverage except on a couple of mountain peaks and I would get a blast of updates. And it was clear that Jill had figured out Wrigley's quirks. I was very lucky to meet Jill and get her to sit for me.

Jill is truly the best pet sitter we have ever used. We went to Maine for a 8 days, 7 nights and she gave our two one-year-old cats the best love and care. She was a great communicator and went above and beyond every time. She even let us know when our fridge was having an issue after a power outage in the area. Will 100% be booking Jill again!

We never worry about our cats when we have Jill checking in. She’s on time, follows our care instructions and shares great notes and photos.

I've booked Jill multiple times and recently had one of my pets pass. She went above and beyond for me and my remaining pet, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

Huge thanks to Jill! She watched the cats for us back in May for a last minute Mother’s Day trip after our regular sitter moved. Then she was able to accommodate us again when we had to last minute fly to Europe, even meeting with my mom to get keys. Our girls have warmed up to her very quickly and we will continue to book as long as she is available :)

I do work school hours Monday-Thursday (8-3:30) but I am happy to help out before/after and on weekends! It is harder for me to do a mid-day/lunch time check in on Monday-Thursday.

It is helpful to know your dog’s schedule and any quirks they may have especially with staying in a new place or experiencing someone new. I always would like to do a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit for one another.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
