About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including administering medication, senior pet care, and basic training for puppies. I treat every animal like family, providing a calm, loving, and attentive environment. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and ability to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. I'm reliable, flexible, and experienced with both high-energy breeds and pets with special care routines. Their comfort and safety are always my top priority. Although I currently work full-time, I make pet care a dedicated part of my evenings and weekends. I’m reliable with early morning or evening check-ins, walks, and overnight stays. My schedule allows me to plan ahead and give pets the consistent care and attention they need. I prioritize communication with pet owners to ensure routines are followed and pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved even while their owners are away. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment by maintaining their normal routines and surroundings. I follow all instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to medication needs, and ensure the home is secure at all times. I build trust through gentle interaction, consistency, and plenty of affection, helping pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. Cleanliness, respect for the home, and constant communication with the owner are top priorities to ensure peace of mind and the pet’s well-being.

I am very in tune with behavioral cues and strive to fit each pet’s individual needs.

About: I have had two dogs of my own, a lab & now an American bulldog & pitbull mix! I have also had two kitties.

I have a very unique bond with animals. I do not see them as different from humans. I treat my dog like I have birthed her myself and treat all animals with as much love as I would treat my own children! A quote about animals that I really resonate with goes like this: “every animal on earth is a living being; with feelings, emotions and a family life, just like you and I.” So it’s safe so say my passion for animals is unmatched! I am new in town so currently I am only caring for my dog Bella. I want to work for rover because of my love for animals! I care for my dog Bella every single day. Like I said before, she is like my own baby! So as for schedule I care for her 24/7! In my home, my dog Bella is cared for with so much love. She has free roam and loves to hang outside in the sun in our backyard! She does sleep in our bed because again, she’s like a baby to me lol. When it comes to pet sitting. I will care for your animals exactly as you do. I will follow the rules exactly as laid out and treat everything with the utmost respect!

“Hillary is such a sweet and amazing person and her love for animals is undeniable! She watched our lab overnight for 2 days and she continuously updated us. My dog was so happy in her care. She even went above and beyond with the walks and making sure he was fed right on time. Our dog felt so comfortable I caught them cuddling while watching a movie on my house camera 😂👍. I was nervous to hire a stranger at first but I’m so glad I found Hillary. I will continue to use her and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her services.”
