About Jorge Rodriguez

Building a future where pets get the loving care they deserve, pet parents get the support they need, and vet nurses get the recognition they’ve earned. Hi, I’m Jorge. I’m a licensed veterinary nurse and the founder of Pawsita, a platform I’m building to make in-home veterinary nursing care more accessible for pet parents while empowering vet nurses to do what they do best: care deeply and skillfully for animals. After years working in emergency and specialty hospitals, training + leading teams, and offering relief support across practices, one thing has always been clear to me: pet care is at its best when it’s grounded in trust, connection, and community. I’ve seen firsthand how powerful personalized, compassionate care can be, especially when it happens where pets feel safest: at home. That’s exactly what I’m creating with Pawsita. Every step in my career has shaped the vision I’m bringing to life. I believe technology can be a force for good in vet med. I believe our pets deserve better. And I believe veterinary nurses are the future. I’m here to build something that changes lives—both human and animal. One step, one story, one connection at a time. Let’s connect. Let’s create something meaningful.
