Safety, trust & environment

When caring for your pet in your home, I focus on maintaining your pet's regular routine, carefully following all instructions to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you are away. My top priority is safety. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure, use leashes and harnesses as directed, and monitor pets for any signs of stress, illness, or injury. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for! Additionally, I treat your home with the same level of care, ensuring it is kept clean, secure, and respected. I care for both your pet and your home as if they were my own.

Information Jade G. would like to know about your pet

Before a visit, I like to know your pet's daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise/enrichment needs, personality, any medical conditions or medications, and their veterinarian's location and contact information. It's also helpful to know how they interact with new people, other animals, and any likes, dislikes, fears, or behavioral quirks. For dogs, I'd like to know about leash manners, known commands, and any triggers on walks. For cats, I appreciate knowing their favorite toys, hiding spots, and comfort preferences. I find that the more information you share, the better I can provide a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for your pets!

A typical day

A typical drop-in visit or walk is tailored to your pet's personality and individual needs. For dogs, that may include a walk, playtime with favorite toys, brushing, potty breaks, water refreshes, feeding, medication administration, and plenty of attention and affection. Similarly for cats, visits can include playtime, cuddles, brushing (super important for long-haired kitties!), litter box cleaning, water refreshes, feeding medication administration, and lots of companionship. I want your pets to feel comfortable and cared for while you are away so I take the time to get to know your pet's routine, likes, and dislikes! Whether your pet is highly energetic and loves to play or prefers calm cuddle sessions, I will make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and enrichment that's right for them. I also provide plenty of updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you're away.

Reliable and personalized care!

Pet care experience

I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals through my work at animal shelters and a luxury cat boarding kennel! Throughout that time, I have cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including shy cats, energetic dogs, senior pets, and animals with special care needs. My experience includes feeding, administering medications, cleaning runs and litter boxes, monitoring health and behavior, providing enrichment and exercise, and ensuring animals feel safe and comfortable. Working in shelter and kennel environments has taught me how to recognize signs of stress or illness, handle animals safely and compassionately, and adapt to each pet's individual needs. I understand how important it is for pet parents to know their pets are in caring and capable hands, and I am committed to providing reliable, personalized care and regular updates during every visit!

Jade was super amazing with my shy boy! He had to take medicine both morning and night and she had no issues with giving him the medicine. She was super flexible with scheduling and helped me out a lot by helping with Sammy last minute. :) Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing to find someone to look after their fur babies.

Jade was excellent with June my German Shepherd! She was on time and did everything that we had agreed-upon. She took extra care and giving cuddles and fun time. She also gave attention to mittens my crazy cat. Couldn’t ask for a better Dog Sitter.
