Jilllian gave us frequent updates and photos during her stay with Kiya. When we got home the house was clean and Kiya was calm. All in all a good experience we would book again if available,

Jillian was fantastic. She watched our puppy for a bit over a week. We got daily updates, and when we got home, our house was cleaner than we left it! She taught our puppy to play fetch while we were gone and we’re already benefitting from this easy way to wear him out. Highly recommend her.

Jillian took care of our two pups, in our home for four days. She provided frequent updates, pics and videos while we were away. She worked well with our youngest who is not great warming up to new people. We arrived home tons nice clean home and two happy pups!

Great with our two dogs -- and very patient with our younger one despite her quirks! She sent a bunch of pictures and kept us regularly up to date with how the dogs were doing. We came back to two contented dogs and a spotless house. We would definitely have Jillian back anytime.

Safety, trust & environment

I love to play catch with balls & toys in the backyard, go walking & hiking, give treats (but not too many). I am very attentive on our walks and I make sure that not only the dog is safe but that it feels safe as well. If the dog is ok with other dogs, I love taking them to fenced in dog parks if the owner is ok with that. I have experience with a lot of different breeds and all levels of energy and anxiety. A lot of dogs I care for have anxiety but I am able to allow them to feels safe and distract them with walks, toys and exercise. I'm very good at reading dogs and making sure they are comfortable and happy. I've been told I have very good energy. I've been sitting for more cats lately and love playing, petting and scratching under chin and making them trust me and purr.
