Experienced dog walker in NYC

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Jillian and I am an animal loving classical musician. From rescue dogs to lizards, I grew up with many different animals over the years, so I have experience taking care of a plethora of different pets. I understand that each animal has different needs! Most recently, I am the mom to two lovely feral born kitties, but have also consistently spent quite a bit of time taking care of indoor bunnies and doing daycare for a very sweet (but anxious) pitbull mix. As a musician, I have a fairly flexible weekday schedule often leaving the daylight hours available to spend time with your pet. Whether it’s a nice stroll on leash or or just stopping by to check in on your pet, I’m here for you! Looking forward!

I've been using Jillian to walk Gretchen for the past couple of months. She is reliable, responsive, and extremely caring. I highly recommend her!

Jillian was the perfect cat sitter for our holiday trip. She was kind, attentive, and never failed to provide us with a daily update. We would definitely book with Jillian again!

Jillian was a perfect sitter for my two cats over the holidays. Kept me updated and made sure they were well taken care of. Would certainly book with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I always treat pets as if they are my own! Plenty of affection and exercise is the name of the game and I am more than happy to maintain whatever training routine you have in place.

Information Jillian H. would like to know about your pet

Too much information is always better than not enough! Do let me know if there is anything I can do to make your pet more comfortable. Does he like to be pet a certain way? Do people or other animals make her nervous? Don’t hesitate to let me know.

A typical day

I always make sure to allow dogs time to sniff while on walks as long as they are maintaining good walking etiquette! Collecting sticks and using them as incentive to stay present with me as their walker has been useful as well when the pet is not being trained with treats.
