All the fetch, all the time!
Pet care experience
I work from home and love frequent walk and play breaks - I will be fully available through the day to play with your pup! I fostered dogs in my last city and am looking to make more furry connections now that I have moved to MA. I specialize in dogs with anxiety and think long walks/runs/socialization are key to a happy and healthy dog. I have one rescue dog in my home, a handsome fella named Jack who thinks every dog he meets is his new bff, so your dog will have an instant friend for socialization. I have experience administering medications and working with special diets and have a plethora of balls and toys on hand to keep your dog stimulated and entertained. Mid-day naps are never a problem with free reign of human beds and couches. I live in South Boston (City Point) in a neighborhood that’s super dog friendly for walks and near parks and beaches. My availability is very flexible and open to last minute accommodations. I love sharing dog photo updates so you won’t miss a moment while you’re away!
Reviews
Jillian was an incredible host for my dog. And her dog Jack is super friendly and welcoming to other dogs, looking forward to booking with her again soon!
Jillian was so great! She communicated really well and sent photos throughout the day. Her dog Jack was so nice to my dog Connie and she came home very happy and very tired after a day of fun with Jillian and Jack.
Jillian was amazing! She took great care of my 2 year old Maltipoo, Koda. She sent lots of photos and updates and her communication was excellent.
Jillian was great! She was very flexible and responsive. She sent a ton of pictures and when we picked up Doug he was happy and exhausted, the perfect combo!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every dog like they are my own, am able to follow any special directions or adapt for any needs you and your dog may have (prior to my rescue pup I had a senior retriever with anxiety - so am able to pivot for leash or general canine anxiety needs).
Home
Information Jillian L. would like to know about your pet
Any allergies/medications needed, feeding schedule, if treats are permissible, any leash anxiety, any anxiety around dogs or children, number of photos/updates preferred through the day, any training areas you are working on to be mindful of.
A typical day
The day involves many walks through South Boston and lots of indoor play! I prefer to not take dogs to dog parks to err on the side of caution, but I have fitted my yard with astro turf and an Amazon surplus box of tennis balls for a diy park.

Availability
I work from home in a marketing role and am fully remote with a puppy in my apartment. There are frequently squeaker toys in the backdrop of my calls and in the words of my colleagues: ‘Dogs are always welcome on calls!’ Your dog will have nonstop human and pup attention with regular walks, play and naps integrated into the day.
