Experienced trainer, caretaker
Pet care experience
I've owned dogs my whole life and have been actively training basic and advanced obedience for ten years as well as search and rescue training for three years. I have worked with all breed categories and ages from five weeks to 15 years. When I'm not running dog training sessions, I work as a landscaper so my schedule is extremely flexible. I've got experience with dog first-aid, dispensing medications, applying medications, cleaning wounds, and changing bandages. I can adjust exercise and play sessions based on the energy level and abilities of the client. If the owner would like, I will also be happy to provide hands-on obedience training free of charge while I'm taking care of my clients, including loose-leash walking and sociliazation manners for stress-free walks for everybody involved!
Reviews
It was perfect. Both dogs were glad to see us return but not over joyed so we know they were well taken care of.
Jillian has lived in the country and owned many animals all her life! She is a true animal lover and has always had a special connection with all kinds of animals! Jillian did all the basic training for my main dog (shepherd malamute) and currently oversees all the horse and dog care on our place. Jillian is honest, hardworking, very caring and completely devoted to the animals in her care! You couldn't leave your beloved pet in better hands.
Jillian took care of my dog while I was in the process of moving. My dog was nine years old and required extra care. Jillian made sure that my dog received the right amount of exercise, was extremely gentle with her and even made sure she took her required medication and kept her on a routine feeding schedule. My dog received the best love and attention. Jillian is someone you can trust your pets with, she will treat them like her own, keep them safe from harm and spoil them with lots of play time. Just beware - after that first visit, your furry friends will be begging you to bring them back for more fun with Jill.
First and foremost, Jillian has a sincere love of animals. She is caring and gentle when it comes to handling dogs and she has a real understanding of how dogs think, see, and respond to situations. Jillian has exhibited amazing skill in the training of dogs, as evidenced by the level of learning of her own dog Tango. I would trust Jillian to take care of my dogs and give her the highest recommendation without reservation.

Information Jillian S. would like to know about your pet
I enjoy spending time with any breed or range of breeds. Each one has unique characteristics which keeps things fun! I would like to know about any allergies, medical, or behavioral issues before sitting so that the experience will be as relaxed and smooth as possible for the client.
A typical day
I can adjust walks to each individual client! I would be happy to play fetch, go for a jog, slow down to sniff the flowers, or do whatever the client's favorite activity is!
