Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety is my top priority on every walk and visit. I've been living and dog walking in the city for a while, so I know to stay aware and keep dogs close. I'll pay close attention to body language, comfort, and energy throughout our time together. And I always communicate after visits so you're never left wondering how your pup is doing!

Information Jillian S. would like to know about your pet

The more I know about your dog upfront, the better I can care for them! I'd love to hear about their energy level, any leash reactivity or triggers, how they do around other dogs and strangers, their favorite routes or activities, and any health or dietary needs. If your dog is on medication, has mobility limitations, or needs anything special on walks, please share!

A typical day

I like to give dogs space to be curious, a walk is mental enrichment as much as exercise. I'll follow whatever routine you've set and make sure your pup gets play time and plenty of love.

animal lover!! 🐾

Pet care experience

I've adored and been around animals my whole life, and for the past few years in NYC I”ve continued to make them a large part of my world! I volunteer twice a week with PAWS NY and help out at shelters around the city. Being around animals is absolutely my favorite way to spend my free time :)

Jilly took incredible care of my geriatric bulldog Ziggy while I was away last weekend. She was a clear communicator of how he was doing, what they were up to, and any relevant questions that needed a little bit more guidance. Ziggy was particularly excited to see me when I finally got home. She clearly took great care of him, and we both sincerely appreciate that. I will definitely keep Jilly in mind for future Ziggy-sittings!

Jillian was so great and lovely as a house sitter for our two pups! We have one senior pup who can be a bit needy and she handled both of them with love and ease - she asked great questions, had great communication and sent lots of updates of my cuties! I’d definitely recommend her!

Jillian unfortunately had to deal with our dog not being excited to be out in the rain, but Jillian was great with her, dried her off afterward, etc. Recommended!

Jilly is such an amazing and caring animal caregiver. She is very responsible, loving and always looking for the best ways to care for her furry friends. Jilly has experience with lots of different sized dogs and she loves them all! Anyone would be lucky to have Jilly take care of their pet.
