Pet care experience
Dogs are a huge part of my life! Ever since I got my first dog, I’ve always done everything I can to take care of them. I love helping dogs be happy, and doing what I can for others as well. Since pups are just always there for us, I want to be there for them too! Because I have a small dog, I can only board dogs who get along well with other dogs, especially little ones! I have lots of experience when it comes to taking care of dogs. In addition to being a long-time dog owner, I also have plenty of experience working with animals in professional capacities. Firstly, I’ve been a professional dog walker and sitter for some time now, and have worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments! I’ve also worked at a few animal shelters, so have learned all the ins and outs about giving great care to animals in need as well. No matter what, your pup will be in good hands! One of the best things about me as a sitter is that I work full-time from home! That means that I’m available 24/7 to take care of your pup. I’m a great fit for dogs that are already used to having a human presence around them during the day, or for ones that could benefit from that! I know that no one likes to keep their pup in a kennel or crate while they’re away, so I want to give them all the freedom they need to thrive! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I perfer for out dogs to meet before the stay, ina neutral space. I want to show them that my dog and I are a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all.
Reviews
Jillian is truly the best. Total dog lover. Always goes well out of her way to take the very best care of our pups. Also very considerate. Cannot say enough good things
I cannot say enough good things about Jillian. We have a couple pups and they have some challenging behavior issues. We trust Jillian completely with them. Not only did she take great care of them, but also was great about communicating with us to let us know how they are doing throughout the visit.
I felt so at ease leaving my cat in Jillian’s care! It helped smooth Mela’s separation anxiety - and mine as well! I highly recommend Jillian as she is a kind and compassionate soul who will care for your creatures while you’re away. I’ll definitely be booking again!
Jillian is fantastic - communicative, careful and kind. We couldn’t have asked for a more reassuring helper for Finn. Thank you!

Information Jillian M. would like to know about your pet
Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Is your dog up to date on their medication and vaccinations? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
I lead a very active lifestyle, so your pup will be treated to tons of exercise! I love getting out and about and exploring the city, so we’ll make sure to have lots of adventures together. I live very close to Mccarren Park, which is a great place to bring a dog! It’s a wonderful place to enjoy some time in the grass and sun, with maybe some fetch as well! My dog Rosemary and I LOVE to go to the dog park, so your pup will come along with us everyday! My neighborhood (Willamsburg) is very dog-friendly, so we’re bound to make some new friends along the way.

I work three days a week at a restaurant a block and a half away from my home. So I will never be far from your pup, and can always stop my in breaks to check in and take them out to potty.
