Safety, trust & environment

As a guest in your (and your pets’) homes, I aim to be as unobtrusive as possible. My priority is to provide excellent pet care while blending into your daily routine. I will try my best to follow "Leave No Trace" guidelines during my stays as well.

Information Jia G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your pet’s usual preferences and schedule, any medical needs/concerns I should be attentive of, and how they do with other animals. My own dog is very reactive, so I am familiar & capable of handling fussy dogs, but do inform me ahead of time!

A typical day

I like to let your pet introduce me to all their favorite spots around the neighborhood. At home, aside from copious amounts of kisses, cuddles, and photo shoots, I’m happy to engage in a friendly match of tug of war (or any other game) - though I may get competitive…

New to Rover, not to pet care!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m a recent Tufts grad transitioning to post-grad life in Boston. My experience with pet care includes previous dog & cat sitting/walking services, caring for family and friends’ pets, several years of 4H obedience and agility training with my childhood dog, and volunteer dog walking services all throughout college. I am experienced in caring for a range of dog/cat breeds, ages, sizes, and needs. I have experience dog-sitting for puppies under 1 year, my childhood dog is now 14 years old, and my new roommate has the cuddliest cat. Outside of pet care, I am starting a new full time job (work from home), and am available to adjust my schedule accordingly for housesitting or drop-in visits. I’m no stranger to customer service, with 5+ years of restaurant experience under my belt, and I will strive hard to deliver the same 5-star care for your furry friends & home - complete with regular updates and pictures too!

Jia took care of my dog Ribsy (2.5-year-old pointer mix) for a week and was absolutely wonderful! Ribsy has a sensitive stomach and has some dietary needs, and Jia was super accommodating. As a puppy, Ribsy can also be pretty energetic at times, but Jia's lifelong experience with dogs was evident as she was able to gently manage all of Ribsy's puppy energy in a professional and calm manner. It's obvious Jia cares a lot about her work and was nothing but sweet and attentive to Ribsy; she'd definitely be the first person I'd call to take care of Ribsy again! Highly recommend!
