Experienced lover of all animals

Pet care experience

I’m a former zookeeper and vet tech and have experience with countless animals, from wolves and lions to hamsters and parrots. I love all species and am comfortable with varying ages and medical conditions. I’ve worked extensively with exotic, domestic, and farm animals - I love them all! I have a degree in Organismal Biology and have spent many years doing medical, ecological, and behavioral-related animal research. I’ve been involved with numerous rescue organizations since high school, and am still a passionate animal shelter volunteer.

I can tell that our dog loves Jordan. Jordan does an excellent job taking care of our dog and also sends some great photos!

Jordan was amazing! Our three dogs and cat loved her and were so well cared for. She is a natural and takes great care with your home and your pets! Highly recommend and would absolutely book again! ✨✨✨

Jordan did an amazing job taking care of my dog. The communication was great, and I can tell by the many pictures and videos that she sent of my dog that he was having a great time and being well-cared for! I will definitely ask Jordan to watch my dog again!

Information Jordan G. would like to know about your pet

How social is your dog? How active? Any behavioral or medical concerns I should be aware of? Any and all breeds are welcome! I love them all

A typical day

I would love to take your dog for walks on nature trails and around parks. I like to run and love an active dog, but also have a soft spot for seniors as a former hospice foster. I’m experienced with training and can also work with your dog on a few basic commands. Rides? Fetch? Belly rubs? All awesome. Pretty much, I’m down for anything! Whatever you recommend to make your pet happy.
