Im currently working part time, meaning I can pop in and check up on your animals whenever! I have always believed that an animals’ needs and preferences come before my own when I am watching them. Whether that means hanging out around the house or taking them on an adventure, I love to do whatever your animal loves to do.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a lot of experience working with large breeds, escape prone dogs, and puppies, which makes me very vigilant and comfortable with all kinds of dogs! I will do anything to take care of your pup. In terms of cats, I’ve taken care of 10 different cats, all with different temperaments and schedules. Whether your kitty is shy or extremely playful, I love getting to know animals and working with their boundaries to suit their needs!

Information Jillian D. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know the usual schedule for your animal, a little about their personality, and what they usually love to do for fun!

A typical day

I really love to cater my days to the dog/cat I’m working with. Whether your animal is a couch potato who just likes to spend time with someone around, a love bug who needs a lot of attention, or an adventure seeker who loves to go on outings and experience new things, I’m happy to adapt my day to accommodate any pets preferences.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Jillian, Im home from college and looking forward to taking care of your pet! I grew up around dogs, specifically large and working breeds. I’ve taken care of puppies and senior dogs, and I’m capable of dispensing medications, cleaning up messes, and reinforcing any training you’re implementing! I’m good at following directions and a quick learner, so feel free to throw anything my way!

Jill is a family friend who has been watching our animals for several years. We take frequent trips and she has never failed to help out. She even stepped in to watch our dog and cat last minute due to a family emergency, with only a few hours notice. She is helpful and consistent.

We love having Jillian as a sitter! She always goes above and beyond for our cats. We have a very specific routine with our cats meals, which involves a lot of different toppers and mix ins to ensure they get a full diet. In addition, we have very active cats and like to keep them on a very consistent schedule of play and eat. Jillian followed all instructions specifically and kept us updated every few hours on the cats, including photos and asking questions if she needed clarification. Our cats love having her and we are never worried when they are in her care.

Jillian is a very trustworthy sitter. I had her watching 2 dogs and 1 cat during a weekend trip and she ensured that all 3 animals were well taken care of and happy, going so far as to sleep in the house and wake up at 6 am every morning to give our two dogs individual walks. She was very good with our elderly dog and ensured he was comfortable and happy

Jillian arrived on time and reliably. She followed my outlined preferences in how to care for my pet. I could trust her word. My dog seemed to love her and was always excited to see her! She was even able to pet sit last minute a few times which was very helpful.
