Availability

I’m home full-time, so boarded dogs receive constant supervision, structure, and individualized care. My days are centered around caring for dogs, which allows me to safely manage multiple boarding dogs with different needs, energy levels, and routines. Each dog receives a balanced routine of exercise, enrichment, and rest in a calm, structured environment. I closely monitor behavior, maintain safe group dynamics, and provide plenty of one-on-one attention to ensure every dog feels secure and comfortable during their stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my top priorities. I maintain a structured, calm household designed to meet the needs of a wide range of dogs. I have multiple separate rooms available for dogs who do not do well with other animals, allowing them to relax comfortably without stress. For dogs who enjoy social time, there is plenty of space for safe interaction and movement. I require dogs to be crate trained overnight or reliably potty trained with an established routine, which helps ensure safety, cleanliness, and consistency for everyone in my care. My home includes a secure, fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and play. While structure is an important part of my household, dogs also enjoy playtime, enrichment, and appropriate freedom based on their individual needs and comfort level. With my experience and environment, I provide a safe, attentive, and well-managed space where dogs can feel secure and well cared for.

Information Jade G. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know ahead of time if your dog requires any medication, including what it is, the dosage, and when it needs to be given. Please also let me know whether your dog is crate trained or not, and if they are comfortable being crated. I appreciate being informed in advance about any behavioral concerns (such as reactivity, separation anxiety, or resource guarding) as well as any potty-related issues or routines. This helps me provide the best care and avoid unnecessary stress for your dog. Additionally, please share any special care needs, preferences, or routines that are important for your dog’s comfort and well-being, such as feeding routines, mobility concerns, or anything else you think I should know.

A typical day

For fun and enrichment, the dogs will have a mix of mental stimulation and play-based activities. These include puzzle feeders, frozen puzzle toys, and Kongs to keep them engaged and mentally challenged. We also use feeding mats to slow down meals and make feeding time more enriching. For physical and seasonal fun, we incorporate different play ideas throughout the year, such as pool time and water play during warmer months, along with interactive games and appropriate outdoor play. These activities help keep the dogs happy, stimulated, and well-exercised while also supporting calm, balanced behavior.

Care They’ll Wag About!

Pet care experience

I bring years of hands-on experience in animal care, including working as a behavior modification dog trainer and spending many years in veterinary medicine. This background allows me to understand not only canine behavior, but also health, safety, and early signs of medical concerns. I’m highly enthusiastic about canine fitness and nutrition, and I tailor care to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and routine. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, calm, attentive care, I provide a safe, knowledgeable, and compassionate experience. Your pet’s well-being—both physical and mental—is always my top priority.

I can't recommend Jade highly enough! Leaving your dog with someone else is never easy, but she immediately me at ease. It's obvious that she genuinely loves and understands dogs, and she took the time to make sure he felt safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout his stay. What really separates Jade from others is her knowledge of dog behavior and training. When my dog experienced a little separation anxiety and wasn't interested in his food, she worked what I will call her Jedi mind tricks to get him eating again. With the incredible patience and obvious understanding of how dogs think, she was able to help him relax enough and feel comfortable. That level of care and attention meant so much to me and showed that she truly treats every dog with unique care. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands gave me complete peace of mind. He came home very happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family while bringing an incredible depth of knowledge and genuine compassion, there is no better person to entrust your dog with. Will absolutely be booking with her again!

I couldn’t have been happier with the care Jade provided for my babies! I needed a dog sitter at the last minute, and she truly saved the day. She was incredibly responsive, sent photos throughout their stay, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I highly recommend Jade to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter!
