I'm Here For You And Your Dog!
Pet care experience
I am available in Minneapolis and neighboring cities most everyday for dog walking and sitting. I also can accommodate same day bookings for any last minute needs in case you unexpectedly need a dog walker or sitter! :) If you have a favorite dog park or your dog would like to walk with a dog friend - I am happy to oblige! I can accommodate any length of time or time of day - just check out my calendar availability and let me know your preferences. Any questions are welcomed! As a longtime animal lover, working with Rover is my dream job. I have two Chihuahuas -- Sam and Emi -- who have been socialized with all type of dogs, ranging from miniature breeds to large breeds. Two of the dogs I’ve had have been rescues (Sam is now 14!) and I adopted a Terrier mix that lived until she was 17 years old. I definitely have a soft spot for senior dogs and I grew up with a variety of breeds from Terrier mixes, Brittanys, Springers, Collie mixes and Chihuahuas. I’m currently working to get my certification in holistic pet care and small animal massage within the next year. I have an extensive knowledge for how to care for and I understand animal’s needs. I'm a genuine animal lover with a long history and background caring for a variety of animals that ranges from baby monkeys to hamsters. If your pup stays with me they will love the private, fenced-in backyard and my neighborhood (Bryant) is filled with animal lovers! There are also a few parks nearby -- Phelps is the closest -- so there’s plenty of places for us to get out and stretch our legs. If the dogs get tired of playing in the yard, there’s plenty of house for them to find their own private space to chill out or take a nap. I have a lot of other interests outside of caring for animals, one of those is attending the World Championship Quartz Crystal dig and my next adventure involves digging for fossils in the Midwest. I also like to spend my time gardening, hiking, biking and indoor climbing and I work as a designer and artist, spending time creating things with textiles and repurposing/refinishing furniture pieces.
Reviews
Jillian is a very detailed caregiver! She asked a lot of great questions during our meet and greet, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her. Her dog played great with mine, and my pup was happy and upbeat when I picked her up. Clean house and a safe backyard set up. Would recommend!
Jillian is such a wonderful dog sitter!! She is so attentive and cares about making sure my dog is comfortable and has fun during his stay. She is also great at giving advice about all sorts of tips and tricks for my dogs overall behavior and well being :). Definitely recommend!
Jillian was great with Leona. And it was so nice having her pups there to play with mine. She sent me updates and a picture and put my mind at ease. Leona was nice and tired when we got home and made for an easy evening for myself.
Thank you Jillian for making Kennedy feel so welcome. Appreciate your flexibility and easygoing attitude. Next time we are visiting Minneapolis I will definitely book a stay with you guys.

Information Jillian P. would like to know about your pet
I have had a lot of experience with different types of dogs, so I like to know if your pet has any particular routines, diet, needs or issues that I need to be aware of. I also like to know what their exercise routine is and how comfortable they are with other pups.
A typical day
I live in the Bryant neighborhood, near Phelps Park, which makes getting out and stretching our legs a breeze! There are also plenty of other parks nearby and if we want to stay at home, I have a great fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for playing with a pup’s favorite toys. My house is spacious enough to allow everyone plenty of breathing space, too!
