About Us

Shared Care & Responsible Keeping

At Jelly & Friends, we celebrate the unique bond between humans and the animals we care for. Our goal is to share knowledge, experience, and appreciation for responsible exotic animal keeping while fostering a community built on curiosity, respect, and genuine care.

A Growing Passion for Animal Care

What started as a personal passion has grown into a desire to connect with others who share this interest. Through Jelly and Friends, we hope to document our journey, share insights on animal care, and build a space for education, learning, and mutual support. As Jelly & Friends grows, we look forward to expanding beyond blogging and offering thoughtfully curated products for fellow animal lovers.

From informed animal care to thoughtfully curated essentials.

Jelly & Friends Slogan

Hannah Launius

My name is Hannah, and I’m the heart behind Jelly & Friends. I currently care for nine incredible animals, including an African bullfrog named Jelly, five Australian White’s Tree Frogs (Jade, Opal, Pearl, Sapphire, and Topaz), a Northern Blue Tongue Skink named Fig, and a very loved mutt named Nugget. Each of them has taught me how to love and provide without expecting anything in return.

Nicholas Ebel

My name is Nick, and I handle the technical and operational side of Jelly & Friends. I manage the website, social media, and product logistics, helping turn ideas into something people can actually interact with and enjoy. I specialize in betta fish care and keeping, and I share my home with Raine, my sweet and affectionate cat. Working alongside Hannah, I’m proud to be part of the journey of building Jelly & Friends from a shared passion into something meaningful, thoughtful, and lasting.
