About: I’m Jacob, a full time nurse, looking for a side hustle to help pay off my student loans :) If you trust me with your pet(s) I will make them my top priority. I will shower them with attention, and take lots of pictures to update you with about our day. I work 3 days a week. I have plenty of free time during the week for your pet’s needs. It would be such a fulfilling past time for me to care for your animals. I live alone in a quiet apartment with no other animals. There’s a good amount of space. Quick and easy walk to the trail around lady bird lake.
“Kimberly really gave us peace of mind leaving Gil with a sitter overnight for the first time. He is an anxious and reactive dog but seemed to be at ease for the visit. Would definitely re-book with Kimberly!”

“Will 100% book another house sitting with Steven! I do not leave my anxious and timid Chihuahua with just anyone. She requires time to get to know people before trusting them. I was leaving for a day trip and needed someone to stay with my girl. Steve was easy to book and communicative throughout the entire process. We had a couple hours of overlap between me leaving and him coming in to take care of her. Within the first few minutes of meeting him and discussing her needs, I could tell he was going to be able to win my pup over. He kept me updated and let me know how she was doing at several points. It was so reassuring to have an attentive individual keep her happy and let me be worry-free for my trip. Thanks, Steven, for your patience and I appreciate you being so warm towards my pup! If you have a rescue pup, like mine, and are nervous about who to leave them with, Steven is your guy!”

“Mo was a wonderful sitter. Great energy, great communication, and the boys took to him immediately, which doesn't always happen. Took great care of the house as well. I'd feel very comfortable leaving my pups with Mo again. Will definitely rebook.”

“Melondy was extremely communicative and thoughtful during her stay with Layla. She made sure she came over right on time, sent me regular updates on how Layla was doing and followed the pet care instructions to the letter. Additionally she was respectful of our space and left the house spotless! I would absolutely book again!”

“Clair was great! Was very attentive, sent pictures and notes about how my 2 kitties were doing and even read through my crazy long cat manual/notes. Will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Cienne took great care of my pups! She stayed at my home and sent lots of updates which I love. My girls looked very happy and comfortable. Will definitely have her over again!”


“Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!”
“Can not rave about Alicia enough. She communicated with me the whole time, went out of her way to help me out and really took care of my dogs. Would absolutely book again if she’s willing!”

About: I have been blessed with many wonderful pets in my life, both big and small! I currently own a horse, Felix. Unfortunately, my dog Alfie passed at 17 years old in January. Although I am not quite ready for a new in home pet of my own, I'd love to help you with yours! I have owned both cats and dogs through my life from puppy/kitten stage to senior life. I have experience with watching dogs, cats, and horses. I have no problem administering medication and I'm comfortable with all ages, sizes, and breeds. 95% of my job is working from home, because of that I am quite flexible in my schedule. On occasion, I do travel for work/personal but will do my best to keep my Rover calendar up to date. My home is pet free, which means your pup will get my full attention! I live in a 2 bedroom apartment. I have a nice sized patio that is fully covered. The area has a lot of green space and sidewalks perfect for a long stroll. There is also a dog park available if your dog particularly enjoys being social. I allow dogs on my furniture and bed, however have no issue with sticking to the rules if that is not part of your daily routine.
“I'm so thankful we were able to have Lauren stay with our dogs & cat while we were out of town! Sounds like they had a great weekend full of cuddles!”

“Barbara was absolutely wonderful. She was able to help me last minute and took such good care of Millie overnight and helped me feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend her care!”

“Jessica was awesome! She watched our doggos while we were out of town, and we will for sure reach out again when we need a sitter. She was quick w communication, sent lots of pics, and took great care of our boys and home.”
“KB was great with Augie! Sent tons of pictures and videos everyday, followed all of our instructions/asks, and truly went above and beyond. Augie even enjoyed playing with Chloe, KBs precious pup. We will definitely rebook KB.”


“Melissa was great! The dogs loved her and were perfectly taken care of. Very responsive and sent pictures and videos while we were gone to make it a little easier to be away from them. Will absolutely book again!”

“Sage was incredible!! They instantly bonded with our dogs, a feat for two anxious girlies who don’t warm up to strangers easily. They sent lots of photos and took the girls on daily walks. They left our home so spotless and went above and beyond and laundered our sheets and ran the dishwasher. You can tell they really just love animals so dearly, and we are so grateful that our girls had someone as loving and kind as Sage to watch them while we were away. We hope to use them again in the future!”

“Carissa was a wonderful house sitter for my two cats and senior dog. The senior dog is nervous around new people, and upon learning about this Carissa showed up prepared with a new toy just for him that immediately won him over! She very thoroughly followed all house care discussions, and I arrived home to a clean house. What a wonderful experience!”

Sydney is the absolute best! She’s responsible, communicative, and both of our animals loved her! She stayed with our cat and dog for a week, and she took fantastic care of them. She respected our request to not leave our dog in a crate longer than 3-4 hours, and she made sure to give them both all the attention, playtime and snuggles they require, sending lots of pics and updates throughout our vacation. Highly recommend and will be booking with Sydney again!

The perfect sitter and house guest! Gave daily updates with pictures and videos on all 3 dogs which really put all nerves to rest. Did exactly as asked so the dogs would stay on their normal routines. Kept the house and dogs clean too! So grateful and will definitely use Kirby in the future!

Sara was great taking care of our dood over the 4th of July. Due to it being a difficult time to find sitters we actually had 3 separate sitters in a row and Sara was right in the middle. Changed sheets and helped prepare for another sitter after her. So appreciative of this!!

Daniela was wonderful with our pets! We felt very comfortable and our dogs loved her from the beginning. She was able to give them medications, stay at our house, and gave them plenty of supervised time outside. Everything was in great condition upon our return. I highly recommend her for your pets needs!
Stephanie is the best! She has watched our crew of four cats twice now and every time delivers care that is above and beyond. She is super communicative and sends a lot of photos! All of the cats were very happy and well cared for including one of our cats who has a URI that requires a few medications. Will definitely work with Stephanie again!!!

Bella is the best! She stayed with our pup, Marlo, for an extended weekend over the 4th and he had THE best time! Not only is she quick to respond, but she goes above and beyond by getting your pup out and about on trails, parks, and numerous walks. Marlo can be a bit skittish at times, but is filled with energy- taking him in public can be a bit nerve wracking, but Bella was able to help him get out of his shell to enjoy these new adventures. While she was here, she kept up with Marlo’s puppy training skills, loved on him lots, and bonus- left our home spotless. We couldn’t be more grateful and will absolutely be rebooking!

Ludo looked after our sheepdog & cat for a week stay and did an excellent job. He was great with the animals, gave them plenty of attention and they were clearly happy & provided lots of updates. Ludo was a great house guest, he left the house very tidy & was very helpful doing additional things like watering & taking the trash bins out. I thoroughly recommend him & looking forward to booking him again in the future! Thank you :)

Our dog and cat were in great hands with Baxter! She was communicative throughout the sit with updates and photos. It’s so important to know your animals are safe and happy, and Baxter provided all of that. Our house was in great shape when we got back as well. Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic experience with this in home overnight visit! Lauren arrived exactly on time, which gave us total peace of mind. We loved getting her photo updates while we were away, and they left everything perfectly clean and tidy. Our pup was so well taken care of—we will definitely be booking Lauren again!
