Supervised and Engaging play!

Pet care experience

I am a longtime dog owner, with experience ranging from toy breeds to terriers to pitbulls to hounds to large shepherds. I grew up with two high energy dogs (a Westie and Labradoodle). I am a part-time Graphic Design student with a Medical Alert Service Dog (Barley, the 2 y.o. lab/shepherd mix. He is incredibly chill, loves other dogs, great with puppies and kids, and gentle. He is up to date on vaccines and neutered. I provide supervised and engaging play. I house up to 2 additional dogs at a time, and have a small fenced in backyard that they enjoy playing in when not on a walk or at the park. My favorite dog park is less than a mile away and we go everyday. Any and all special needs are attended to, if any. Meals are scheduled and safe, as dogs are fed spaced apart and separately, if needed. Baths are also provided if necessary! Pictures of your dog's stays are always provided too! We would love to spend time with your dogs :)

Would give more stars if that was an option! I really don’t have enough positive things to say about Jillian. Between daily updates, tons of photos and videos, and simply being a pleasure to interact with, I could not have been happier with how our pup’s time was. Really, I would use her every time I have to leave town. You could not ask for your pet to have a better home away from home.

i can't say enough good things about Jillian! I always get nervous leaving Winston when we go away and Jillian was awesome with sending me frequent updates and pictures! I could tell he was very well taken care of, she even cleaned his ears! He came home happy and tired!

Jillian was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Our day was a little up in the air and she was very accommodating about pick up times. Our dog Ellie seemed to have a great time, and we got lots of pictures of her.

Jillian took excellent care of our dog Luna! Luna is usually pretty shy and we were so happy to see from photos and videos that she had a ton of fun with Jillian and seemed very comfortable there. We highly recommend! (And Barley is adorable, highly recommend him as well)

Information Jillian L. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. Would like to know temperament and any special needs. We’d prefer dogs that do well with other dogs and non-aggressive is crucial, since there is always at least 1 dog around!

A typical day

Barley and I enjoy long walks around town and into stores. Our favorite activity is the dog park less than a mile from home!! It is perfect for letting energy out in a safe and enclosed space! There’s always fun to be had and plenty of friendly and sociable dogs to chase and wrestle with. My backyard is small, but dogs like to relax on the porch or play on the patio when they feel like it :)
