As a full-time student with classes spread throughout the week and a part-time job, I balance my schedule to ensure I can provide attentive and reliable pet care. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate pet-sitting needs, whether it’s daily check-ins, walks, or overnight stays. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make sure to prioritize their well-being while managing my academic and work responsibilities.

Safety, trust & environment

I exclusively provide pet care services in my clients’ homes to ensure the best experience for their pets and mine. By caring for pets in their own home, I help maintain their routine and comfort, making the transition easier for them while their owners are away.

Information Jillian G. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know as much as I can about a family’s pets ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible while you’re away. I like to learn about their daily routine, such as feeding schedules, walk times, and bathroom habits, as well as any medications or health concerns. Understanding their personality, energy level, and how they typically behave around new people, other animals, or loud noises helps me make them feel comfortable and safe. Having all this information ahead of time allows me to keep things consistent and stress-free for both the pets and owners.

A typical day

With dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks in your neighborhood or a park/trail, playing fetch, and tug-of-war. For cats, I like using wand toys, laser pointers, or even just cuddling and petting them. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away!

Pet care experience

I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, growing up with both dogs and cats, which gave me a deep love and understanding of their needs. For the past two years, I’ve been pet sitting for clients, providing personalized care based on their preferences. I have experience with a variety of animals, including birds, kittens, puppies, dogs, and cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring pets stay on their routine, I’m passionate about giving them the best care possible!

This is my second time booking with Jillian and she was wonderful. Incredibly communicative, arrives exactly when she says she is going to, and is very generous with all the time she spends with my dogs. My house was just as clean if not cleaner than when I left it, and most importantly, Pip & Tula were well-cared for. Thank you 🩷
