I'll be a home away from home

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Jacob and I LOVE DOGS! I am 26 years old, currently living at home with my mom, younger sister and our 3 year old yellow lab. I've had 4 dogs throughout my life, (all of them being labs) and I loved each one like a family member. I also have experience house sitting. For multiple summers in a row, the family I used to nanny for would have me stay at their house with their dog and watch over everything for a week. I can not express how much I love dogs and how much care and attention I will provide for your dog while you are away.

I have known Jacob for almost 7 years now and there is no one else I would rather watch my dog when I am out of town or busy. He is very reliable, easy to communicate with, and always has your pet's wellbeing and happiness as his first priority!! He has not only been caring for his own pet(s) over the years, but has experience walking dogs for other in Boulder, Denver, and Broomfield, Co. I call Jacob whenever I know I will be out of town for work and need someone to watch my puppy! Very trustworthy and reliable friend to have.

Perfect Visit. Dropping my dog off with Jacob allowed me to enjoy my vacation without having to worry about her care. When I picked her up after the trip, she came over excited to see me and then returned to sit by his side. Where she normally is scratching at the truck door to leave, she didn't mind hanging out. I will be using him for house sitting and dog sitting whenever I get the chance, and have already informed my neighbors of him in case they need some his services. Thanks Jacob.

Jacob is great with dogs, any breed. He is most caring partly because of the three dogs he has had since his birth. The most recent of which passed away just this past April, when he was most aware of the finality of that beloved dogs life and the role in which Harper had in his own life. He knows of the needs of dogs; attention, exercise, food, water and of love. Jacob is a loving, caring, loyal, trustworthy and conscientious man. It would be hard pressed to find someone more suited to care for your precious family member. I hope you give him every consideration.

Jacob has looked after dogs for over 13 years. Not only did he care for his own dog, an active yellow lab he would frequently take on hikes or walks, but is known in the neighborhood as the preferred dog or babysitter. Jacob is an active young man who enjoys the outdoors, frequently hiking Mount Herman or Limbaugh Canyon, and appreciates the company of a furry friend. At home the house is littered with multiple dog toys and has a large yard for a dog to run around in.

Safety, trust & environment

The home I currently live at has a spacious, unfenced backyard and a few trails within walking distance. We also have a 3-year-old yellow lab that gets along with other dogs.

Information Jacob B. would like to know about your pet

Is the dog potty trained? Is the dog friendly towards other dogs? Does he/she bite? I do not have any breed preferences and I am willing to discuss any special cases.

A typical day

We will go on walks, runs, or hikes (whichever you prefer) around my neighborhood and in a small valley right by my house. I will play with them outside and we have a bunch of toys to play with inside. I can pretty much do whatever you want to keep your dog happy.
