Pet care experience

Trusted, One Family at a Time Care

🐾 Compassionate, Experienced Pet Care - Trauma Certified & Private, In-Home Dog Sitting- One Family at a Time 🐾 —————————————————— Hi! I’m Jorie. I’ve spent over 10 years caring for dogs, cats, and even horses, and animals have always been the most meaningful part of my life. After a decade working as a Director of Events & Catering, I’m shifting out of corporate life and returning to my true passion of full time pet care. I offer a dog sitting experience where I only accept one dog family at a time. This allows me to provide a calm, personalized, low-stress environment with plenty of one-on-one attention, updates, and photos throughout your dog’s stay. Your dog will be treated like part of our family. —————————————————— 🐶 My Experience • 10+ years of dog sitting, cat sitting, and horse sitting • 10+ years of fostering dogs and cats, including medical and behavioral cases • Trauma specialist animal care certification from 5 years working as a Trauma Specialist for primates in South Africa • Skilled with shy, anxious, reactive, senior, and special-needs pets —————————————————— 🐕‍🦺 My Home & Family My husband and I have a 2-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog, Bailey, who is his trained service animal. She is incredibly loving, social, and great at helping nervous pets feel safe and comfortable. She LOVES to play and has a special fondness for pugs lol 🤣 —————————————————— We also have a fully fenced, large yard — perfect for playtime and fresh air. I work from home, so your pet will have company, structure, and attention all day long. —————————————————— ❤️ My Approach I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand behavior and body language, and I always meet pets where they are. Whether your pet loves adventure or prefers cozy naps and soft voices, I adapt to their comfort level.

Jorie did a phenomenal job caring for Tux and Toby! She cared for our pets as though they were her own. She was very considerate and patient with our pets' different needs and behaviors. Both Tux and Toby especially enjoyed their indoor and outdoor play time and space. Toby and Bailey became fast friends enjoying their playtime together. Tux loved his one-on-one playtime of fetch and retrieve. We felt very comfortable with and confident in Jorie's expertise in warm and tender care. We will definitely be booking again with Jorie and also highly recommend her pet boarding service. Thank you Jorie for taking such great care of Tux and Toby! They look forward to their next stay!

Jorie is wonderful! We have used her services multiple times and couldn’t be happier! You can really tell she loves dogs. She is excellent at providing text and picture updates to give you peace of mind while you are away on a trip. Finley had a great time visiting and playing with her pup Bailey. This last time he was so excited to visit he was pulling on the leash to get inside Jorie’s house. I think that shows you that Finley loves it there. (I can tell you that he sure doesn’t do that when we go to the groomer… lol). I Definitely recommend Jorie to care for your furry family member.

Jorie was fabulous!! From communication to a meet & greet walk to photos during his stay. Jorie went above and beyond to make sure that Zeus was comfortable. Zeus had a great time with Bailey too!

Joroe was fantastic with Olive! They were extremely communicative, sent multiple photo updates, and followed all my complicated feeding instructions perfectly. I could tell Olive was relaxed and happy when I got home. I will definitely be booking again!

I always ask about your pets personality! Some dogs are a bit more shy and need their space, while other dogs are true social butterflies. I have individual play areas for dogs that might need some peace lol!
