About
Hello! I am an animal lover who also makes sure your home and plants are taken care of while you are away on vacation or business. I have been doing this for most of my adult life. I am trustworthy, responsible and dependable. Currently serving the Cottonwood Heights/Sandy/Salt Lake/Park City areas. I offer private walks and group hikes. These hikes are a great way to socialize your dog and get him/her out into nature!

Jade was a pleasure to work with. She helped us feel so at ease leaving our doggos and going on an extended trip out of the country. Our dogs were happy and healthy and our house was cleaner than when we left it. Thank you Jade!!

Jade jumped in and helped with walking my dog, Lucy, when I had to go out of town. Lucy had fun and I appreciated it so much. I will work with her again!

We had to leave town for work and a soccer tournament and our beloved older cat had recently been diagnosed with diabetes. Jade was awesome. She came over to meet us and the cats and to see how to administer the insulin shots. It wasn't going to be an easy task and we were worried about leaving him. She made us feel very comfortable that our sick cat, and our house, was in good hands. While we were gone, she came over several times to feed and check on the kitties, and to give the shots. She was so nice and professional and on time with the visits. We really appreciate everything she did and we wouldn't hesitate to leave any of our pets (and our house!) with Jade and definitely will do so again the next time. She is kind, loves animals, and she is a professional, she takes the job seriously. And really fair and great price compared to many and especially compared with leaving them at a pet hotel! Can't recommend Jade enough. Thank you Jade

Jade is the best dog walker. She is upbeat and happy and loves our dog, Hanna, a full 116-lb Bernese Mountain dog. Jade handles her perfectly and comes at the times she schedules. She is so gentle and kind to Hanna that I know she is in good hands with Jade. Jade has made Hanna very happy during their walks, and Hanna has become enamored with Jade, which is a good indicator of a super dog walker.
I wholeheartedly recommend Jade to everyone looking for a dog walker.

I have experience working with animals that have medical needs. I can give medication and assist with inhalers. I love taking dogs on hikes especially.

I have always had a special bond with animals, both wild and domesticated. Friends would ask me to watch their pets and homes so it has become a passionate side hustle.
