Pet care experience
I've grown up surrounded by puppy love at home. Since I was young, I have been the care taker for my two border collie mixes at home, responsible for feeding, medication administering, walking, and playing with them daily. I also have experience dog sitting throughout high school, mostly at a home with two chihuahuas and a young Labrador retriever for long periods of time. My years of retail management experience has helped me to become a quick problem solver, which I think is key when handling animals. Even though I'm a total dog person, I'm open to taking care of cats as well! I enjoy running and walking long distances, so I am open to all exercise needs.
Reviews
Jillian is definitely going to be our go-to dog sitter. Mozart and Loretta miss her already. Flexible and willing/able to work with my ever-changing schedule to meet for our meet and greet, and even did a second meet and greet when I got a puppy after my reservation was already booked. I even needed to extend my trip and she was able to accomodate an extra day. Incredibly responsive and communicative. She was comfortable administering oral medication to my older dog, and did an amazing job at keeping my 5mo old puppy on his potty training routine - and even improved his usage of the peepee pads while I was gone for 5 days! She sent the best pupdates with photos every day. 10/10 would recommend.
Jillian was amazing. I booked her for some drop ins and she did an amazing job with keep us posted about how around fur kids were doing. I definitely recommend her she it trustworthy
Jillian was an amazing dog and house sitter. As soon as we met her I knew Gatsby and Harper were going to love her and have a great time…and they definitely did! Jillian sent pictures and updates every day which made me happy and relieved to know that the dogs were being well taken care of and having fun. Jillian also took great care of my home. We ended up having a ceiling leak before we left and Jillian was willing to deal with the repair person, which was not what she signed up for but very much appreciated. I will definitely book Jillian in the future and I know Gatsby and Harper can’t wait to spend time with her again. Thanks Jillian!
Jillian was outstanding! We will be using her exclusively for our two crazy doggies. She sent great updates and hilariously adorable photos. She also made us feel so comfortable with our one dog who required medication. Thank you, Jillian!

I love to walk and run, so I will definitely keep them active if needed! Depending on the needs/comfort of each dog, I can take them for long distance walks or to any neighboring parks for a full day of play. I am comfortable administering medication and any other special needs for your pets.
Information Jillian H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know whether your dog is comfortable around other dogs/people so I have an idea of where our best walking destinations will be. Also please let me know of any special circumstances or behaviors of your pet, so that I can ensure the most comfortable and smooth sitting experience!
A typical day
I am open to a wide range of daily activities that match your pet’s energy level. For puppies, we will work on learning new tricks and good behaviors, starting with basic training if needed. For high energy breeds, I will be sure to wear them out so you come home to a calm, sleepy pup! Please inform me of any special requests, or if your pet has a favorite walking route!
