Hi! I'm Jill, an
eperienced, reliable, trustworthy and friendly animal-lover based in Yorkshire and happy to consider travel to anywhere in the UK.

I have many years of pet ownership as well as caring for pets for others and house sitting. I've had a number of my own dogs in the past and at one time 9 rescue battery hens and a rescued terrier. Bliss! I'm the person who can't walk past you without asking your pet's name and if I can say hello !

I've had my own gardens and a large allotment in the past, so am also adept at plant tending, deadheading, watering, feeding, greenhouse care etc. I currently live in a flat, so miss my gardening and as I'm not able to keep a pet, doing pet and house sitting works well for me.

When I started on here a year ago I was working full time and did pet sits for free. I'm now semi-retired and do make a small nightly charge and/or travel expenses for a sit. But I have more availability in return!

References are available from people who I have done pet and house sits for in the past. I'm also on a well known dog walking site and can refer you to references on there if you needed.

I love the outdoors and nature, wet dog walks, muddy fields, parks, beaches, rain, cuddles, licks, sniffs, throw and catch, cat care. Any animal really! So far, Ive sat with dogs cats, rabbits, chickens, guinea pigs and a parrot. I love all creatures. Im happy to look after gardens, greenhouses or veg plots too, if needed.

Im a driver and non-smoker.

I will be completely respectful of your home and beloveds. I pride myself on leaving someone's home clean and tidy and welcoming for you to come home to.


Happy to meet first or chat on the phone to answer any questions.

Hope to speak soon :-)

Jill was an amazing house sitter, with regular communication and responsiveness from word go. She looked after both dogs and parrot with great care and attention to detail, taking them on lovely walks and outings and treating them as her own. Nothing was too much trouble, house was immaculate on our return and we have already discussed and confirmed future sit dates with her as we are so happy with her Housesitting our pets. Thanks Jill see you soon 👍 Pierre & Sarah

It was my pleasure. Thankyou for making me feel very welcome. See you again soon. 😀
Jill is an absolute star find! Brilliant communication and she took such great care of my home (and hens). I’d definitely recommend Jill and would have her back in a heart beat. A perfect sitter! Thanks Jill ☺️
 
SARAH (Coalville England, Dec 2023 - 3 nights)
Jill was excellent to communicate with - and the dogs loved her. She kept in good touch whilst I was away and clearly the dogs were happy and their routine was closely followed. I felt confident all was well and came back to super tidy house and dogs that had been very well looked after. They probably miss all her attention!!! I would be delighted if she could return in the future.

Jill has now house sat for us several times and all i can say is that she is fabulous. Our dog Gracie loves her being around and Jill takes her on a couple of long walks every day including going to dog friendly cafes and pubs. She takes great care of the house and we could not recommend her more highly.
 
JONATHAN (Teddington England, Sep 2023 - 2 weeks)
Jill has been an amazing house and pet sitter, she has such a kind and caring nature about her, I had regular updates from her about their walks together along with photos and videos she made me Feel so at ease especially as this was the first time we’d had anyone pet sit milo. The house was clean and tidy when we got home too! We will certainly be using Jill again for future sits.
 
JADE (Chesterfield England, Aug 2023 - 1 week)
Jill is a very kind and trusting lady. She was amazing with my boxer dog Mabel. She kept me up-to-date with what they we're up to and followed the notes I left for Mabel very thoroughly. My house was left clean and tidy and communication with Jill was great. I highly recommend Jill and would be confident to get in touch with her again!
 
GEORGINA (Cleethorpes England, Aug 2023 - 2 nights)
Thanks Georgina. Mabel was an absolute joy to spend time with and I enjoyed it immensely.
Jill was a fantastic house sitter. She was easy to communicate with, and I felt really happy and comfortable leaving the house and our pets with her. She took fantastic care of everything, particularly our dogs, and the house was spotless when we returned. Thanks so much.

Thanks Chloe. It was a great first sit for me to do and whilst I was certainly kept busy, I thoroughly enjoyed my time with your mini zoo. Say hi to little Cinnamon from me!
