Safety, trust & environment

I always treat my clients' homes with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I value your privacy and maintain a clean and tidy environment. Your pet’s health and wellbeing are my top priorities. I pay close attention to their behavior, habits, and routines so I can notice any changes that may indicate they need extra care or attention.

Information Jacalyn G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any medical conditions, takes any medication, has any food allergies/sensitivities, and what their favorite toy or treat is :)

A typical day

I love to provide enrichment for both cats and dogs. Whether it's through play, brushing, walks, or quiet companionship at home, I enjoy spending time with animals in a way that comforts them.

Trusted Care with Vet Experience

Pet care experience

I have over 6 years of experience working in the veterinary field. As a former veterinary assistant, I've cared for pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities, and I understand that every animal has unique needs. I'm experienced in administering medications, including oral, topical, subcutaneous, and intramuscular injections. I also have extensive experience working with nervous, anxious, and reactive cats and dogs, and I always prioritize patience, positive interactions, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable.

Jacalyn is amazing with our senior dog, Gizmo. Gizmo is typically an anxious girl, but she’s so comfortable and relaxed with Jacalyn — it really says a lot. Jacalyn sends regular updates and is always attentive to Gizmo’s needs (extra important since Gizmo is 15!). We feel completely at ease leaving our girl in Jacalyn’s hands.

Jacalyn is a compassionate and detail-oriented pet caregiver. She ensures that all animals are well fed and physically and mentally stimulated, while also paying close attention to any changes in behavior that may indicate discomfort or stress. Her years of veterinary service reflect her commitment to animal health and safety. Jacalyn is my first choice for pet care, always!
