Lifelong Lover of All animals!

Pet care experience

Hi, I enjoy all ages of dogs and cats. I have had many, many dogs and cats growing up raising them from newborn puppies or kittens all the way into their senior years. I am well experienced in training puppies, playing with active cats/dogs and caring for sick or aged pets as well. I have also volunteered for many rescue organizations, most recently Meriden Humane Society. The joy animals bring me, far surpasses any other career I've had throughout the years.

Jill is great! We did a meet and greet and then later, I dropped my pup off for a full day. Ollie loves playing w her dogs and even met cats for the first time! Jill has the perfect yard for a lot of running and chasing and she even has a kiddie pool out for the dogs. When the weather is bad, she has a room for them to chill out in. We will definitely be using Jill again!!

Jillison is absolutely amazing. Ruby and I did a meet and greet before our first stay and Jillison was very welcoming. Ruby made herself right at home and instantly was loving Jillison's home and pets. She gives you a tour and goes through any expectations or restrictions you may have for your pet while they are with her. While Ruby was staying with her I received plenty of updates and pictures. I felt at ease and knew she was in great hands. Ruby and I will definitely be back ☀️🌞

Jill did a great job taking care of our Border Collie, Buddy. Jill’s a pleasure to work with, responsive and caring, can tell she really loves dogs and made sure Buddy felt right at home. We received regular pictures and a video. Great environment for our Buddy!

Jill and her husband Doug were great hosts for our young, active Border Collie. They went out of their way to meet our needs. I had mentioned that Louie liked to chase a Frisbee, and when we arrived Jill had added one to her big bucket of dog toys. I was happy about the big play yard, but while we were away I received some pictures from Jill of Louie and his pals running at the beach. What a great place to leave my pet!
