“Jillian walked our English Bulldog for 3 days. Jillian was amazing - very punctual and a great communicator. I would highly recommend Jillian to anyone seeking pet care.”


About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

I share my home with one dog and three cats, and since I live in an apartment without a fenced yard, I take my dog on multiple leashed walks each day.

When caring for pets in their own home, I strongly believe in the importance of routines and consistency. I always follow specific instructions to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
