Safety, trust & environment

My goal is to provide care that puts you at ease while also helping to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while they are away from their person. I am not offering boarding at my own house, but am able to hang out and spend the night at your house with your pet! I am able and willing to adapt in any way that best fits you and your pets needs.

Information Jillian G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any specific medical or behavioral issues that I need to be aware so that I can care for them as best as possible.

A typical day

I love going on long walks around the neighborhood and exploring different areas to ensure your pet gets as many new sniffs as possible! I also enjoy playing with toys and snuggles on the couch before bed :)

Pet care experience

I am an undergraduate student at UVM pursuing an animal-science degree with an interest in behavior, conservation, and research. I work at a public farm back home over the summer where I take care of a wide variety of both farm and companion animals (including horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, barn cats, etc.) and I also used to work at Rub-a-Dub Dog (self-serve dog wash shop) throughout high school. Additionally, I started a local business in 2018 and have been pet sitting, dog walking, and house sitting ever since. I have experience with dog, cat, rabbit, bird, fish, and reptile care, and am more than willing to learn how to meet the specific needs of your pet! I have worked with dogs and cats of all ages, along with reactive dogs, and have experience administering oral medicine in cats and dogs. I absolutely love photographing animals so you can expect tons of cute photo and video updates while I am with your furry (or scaly) loved one :)
