Pet care experience

Large house with a fenced in yard

I just moved to North Carolina from Minnesota. Have the summer free and I have lots of free time and would love to spend some of that time caring for dogs. I’ve owned dogs almost my whole life and I used to volunteer at the humane society. I live with my fiancee Jessie and she loves animals just as much as I do. I have owned many cats but currently we don’t have one. I have a 5 year old sheepadoodle and he is the happiest and friendliest dog I’ve ever owned. He would love to keep your dog company. We have a fenced in yard and live 4 minutes from a great trail where we walk daily. Thanks for looking and I hope to hear from you

Our boy was stoked to spend the weekend with Jacob and his dog, Burns. The big backyard and a sweet Dog Mom available for snuggles made ours feel at home. Cinnamon slept in for four days after the weekend with Jacob! We hope to have this Rover again.

Jacob was amazing with our pup! We recieved daily updates and pictures of Lucy playing with Burnes in the back yard. Jacob also went above and beyond when our dog was having a mild allergic reaction to some meds we were giving her; they gave her extra attention and kept us updated the whole time. Would highly recommend!

Jacob did a wonderful job of communicating with me. Pepper seemed very happy and content. I appreciate all his hard work and recommend him highly.

Jacob was super nice & took great care of our German Shepherd Duke! He sent pictures throughout the weekend to update us on how much fun our dog was having. Our dog must have had so much fun running around in Jacob’s backyard with his new friend Burns that Duke has been asleep since picking him up! Would recommend Jacob!!

Jake and Burns were great! My pup came home tired and happy from all the playing.
