Originally from Wisconsin, Jadie grew up with the family dog and eventually got her own: a husky named Link. She’s always had a special connection to animals and many people were in awe at how good of a team Jadie and Link were.

She eventually moved to the west coast, working at one of the top doggie daycares in San Francisco. There, she noticed how often dogs would be overly stressed in large play groups, often managed by untrained employees. This observation has remained consistent across the many doggy day cares and boarding facilities she’s worked at or visited. This is when she came to the realization that there must be a better way… and there is!
