Highlights
Pet care experience
My Goal is to be your Dog's Bestie!
I have volunteered at a few animal shelters, including Pet's Alive in Middletown, NY. When I volunteered there, dogs were divided into green, yellow, and red. Green meaning that the dog was friendly and easier to handle, red meaning that only certain people could handle them, and yellow was a midway point. Throughout my time there, I was able to work my way up to yellow, which meant that I could work with the dogs that weren't always easy to handle. In my home life, I had a Treeing Walker Coonhound named Annie! We grew up together, and it often felt like she was my second sister. At a very young age, I had to learn how to safely walk a very strong, passionate, excited, and fast hound. Towards the last two years of her life, I made it my priority to make sure Annie was as comfortable as possible. This meant taking her outside often because of her incontinence, as well as helping her up the stairs if she needed help. Since then, I have looked after the dogs of many friends and family, and I'm excited to meet yours!

Safety, trust & environment
Above all else, I want you and your pets to feel comfortable, safe, and happy with me, so how I care for them depends on their personalities, what you can tell me about them, and what they need to be their healthiest self. I'm very patient and I love how unique all creatures on this earth are - I will have an absolute blast getting to know your furry pals! As much as I'd love to board, I have two cats who grew up with a dog when they were kittens, but it's been almost 7 years, and unfortunately, they have long since forgotten that dogs exist. To prevent confusing my cats, my care will primarily be at your house and property! I have always seen taking care of animals as a huge responsibility, and I genuinely do not take animal care lightly. I also take being in your home and property very seriously, because our homes should be a safe place for ourselves, our families, and our pets.
Ratings and reviews
Lillie is great - she wonderful care of my dogs a 14 year old and a 1 year old. She did everything I asked her to do while we were away. We loved the photos and videos she sent. We will hire her again the next time we go away (and hope she is available).
I have now had Lillie back to take care of my cat 3 times. She is truly the best!
Lillie was responsive and friendly. My cats were not. But she gave great feedback and tried to get my antisocial babies to engage. Very reliable. I would 100% engage her again.
Lillie is very attentive to my dogs and working hard to win over my grumpy old little guy. She is flexible and remembers instructions perfectly. I can recommend her!
This was my second time having Lillie care for my cat, Carrot Cake. She was wonderful. She was able to administered insulin for her without any issues ! She send lots of pictures and I can tell my cat just loves her. I highly recommend her and will continue booking with Lillie in the future.
Thank you so much for your kindness and for being such a "Dog Whisperer" for our puppy. You managed to keep our nervous dog calm and happy even with the unexpected arrival of both the lawn crew and the movers. We truly appreciate you, Ms. Lillie.

Schedule
I work from home, and I make my own schedule, so I'm very flexible! The only times I would most likely not be able to care for your pets in over night stays would be the day before a holiday and the holiday (example: Christmas Eve and Christmas.) For those who need a caretaker during odd hours that other caretakers may not be able to fill, my flexible schedule could definitely work!
