Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional Pet Care
I’ve had a pet (or 20) as long as I can remember but I’ve been working in the pet field professionally for 6 years now. Everything from fostering, pet care, dog training, dog walking & sitting, & working in a shelter. I also work with TNR everywhere I go. I love my scaly & feathered friends as well; I have experience across the board. I’m comfortable with bottle babies, seniors, pets with special needs (can administer most medications), & pets with high anxiety/reactivity.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I strive to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible while you’re away! Whether that means sticking to a detailed schedule, maintaining training expectations, or simply providing extra playtime and cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to accommodate most special instructions and quirks that help your pet feel comfortable and secure.
Ratings and reviews
I originally reached out to Lillian because my rescue dog struggled with anxiety around strangers, pulled constantly on walks, and had a hard time settling down in the home. I felt overwhelmed wasn’t sure if training would make a difference. From our very first session, Lillian made me feel hopeful. She took the time to get to know both my dog and me and explained everything in a way that actually made sense. What I appreciated most was that she never relied on quick fixes. Instead, she focused on building my dog’s confidence while teaching me how to communicate with him more effectively. She celebrated every bit of progress with us and adjusted our plan whenever we hit a roadblock instead of making us feel like we had failed. Throughout the entire process Lillian was encouraging, patient, and incredibly responsive whenever I had questions between sessions. It was obvious she genuinely cared about my dog’s success and wasn’t just watching the clock. I recommend Lillian to everyone who asks about dog training and I would trust her entirely to care for my dog while I’m away. She’s one of those rare people who combines professional knowledge with genuine compassion… and the animals seem to recognize that.
As both her riding instructor and her manager, I’ve had the opportunity to observe Lillian’s horsemanship and animal care over several years. She possesses the level of responsibility, situational awareness, and work ethic that I look for in someone trusted with the care of valuable animals. Lillian understands the importance of consistency, routine, and careful observation. She follows instructions thoroughly, communicates clearly, and is proactive in identifying concerns before they become larger issues. Beyond horses, her extensive experience with companion animals gives her a well-rounded understanding of animal behavior and handling across a variety of species. I have always found her to be genuinely invested in the welfare of every animal entrusted to her care. I would confidently recommend her to anyone seeking a professional and reliable caregiver for their pets.
I had the opportunity to supervise Lillian in a professional pet care setting; where she consistently demonstrated exceptional reliability, initiative, and compassion for the animals in her care. She quickly became someone I could depend on in a fast-paced environment that required close attention to detail, strong time management, and excellent animal handling skills. Lillian has a remarkable ability to recognize subtle changes in an animal’s behavior or health, and she approaches every situation with patience and sound judgment. She also communicated professionally with both coworkers and pet owners, earning the trust of everyone around her. I have complete confidence in Lillian’s abilities and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely compassionate pet care professional.
Lillian is an absolutely amazing caregiver to pets. As long as I’ve known her she’s had a deep seeded love for all animals. From rats to reptiles her knowledge, passion, and love for animals knows no bounds. Not only is she incredibly responsible (doing her due diligence to research animals needs and proper care), but she truly cares for every animal as if they were her own and takes her role as a caregiver to pets very seriously. You can trust that if Lillian is caring for your animals she is doing a remarkable job. I trust no one more!
Lillian is professional and reliable. She cares for pets as if they are her own. She is patient and sensitive to the individual needs of each animal and assures their needs are met. She is my dog’s favorite person, he is always super excited to see her! There are few people I would trust caring for my animals and Lillian is one of them.
