Pet care experience

Your pups new Auntie Jax! 🖤

Hi! I’m Jax, and I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life. My first dog, Rex (Choco Lab mix), was a sweet boy and the love of my life. Rex was my first rescue pup and came with complex medical needs, and through him I learned how to administer medications, give injections, and support special needs dogs with patience and love. My current dog, Valkyrie (Presa Canario/Lab mix), is a 7-year-old, 80-pound athletic bully breed who’s full of energy and heart. She’s taught me the importance of daily exercise for managing anxiety, burning energy, and keeping dogs mentally sharp. I understand the unique challenges—and the joy—that come with different breeds and temperaments. I love finding creative ways to care for each dog as an individual, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and engaged while giving you peace of mind.

Jax is the best - we’ve used her for overnights and for daycare. I never worry for a second when she’s got Otto. She’s so communicative and sends lots of photos and videos. She is always my first choice!

Jax is awesome! She kept us updated with so many pictures and took care of our fur babies and our home like they were her own.

I can't say enough great things about Jax! Our animals are a lot of work, and she takes such amazing care of them. Knowing they were in her hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy to watch your pets, I highly recommend booking Jax!

Jax was amazing with Maggie. My girl settled in immediately, got all of the play time, and had a blast. She's already looking forward to spending time with them again!

We had a great experience with Jax. Our dogs were so well taken care of, even over a particularly challenging weekend, the Fourth of July. Cannot recommend enough.

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your dog's in your home per your instructions. I don't like to do things with pets that the parents aren't comfortable with. If the day is too hot for walking on pavement we might just play in the back yard instead. I want to be mindful of all needs and care your your pet with your plan in mind.

Pets

A typical day

I like to accommodate the personality of the dog I am with. I am a big believer that a well excersized dog is easier to train, well behaved and more content. Pets love engagement so I usually always start with walking, or a good fetch session...or playing with their favorite toy. I also love to give reward, treats and snacks after a visit.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, favorite toys, or activities in advance. I am happy to administer medication as long as they aren't aggressive about application. I have had to find many a tricky way to give meds with my own dogs so I can work with you on getting creative if we need. But I want to know what your dog likes and do all the fun things with them that they like while I am there.
