Jacob did a great job of taking care of our collie and keeping us informed on his well-being. It gave us peace of mind while we were away.

Sadly, this was the last time that I will use Jacob as a sitter. I have never had issues before and have used him quite a few times. It has always been a wonderful experience. This time, though, I never saw Jacob. His mom came out to get my dog from me and when I picked her up, his mom is who brought her out to me. I do hope that Jacob is okay. I was told that my dog ate every bit of her food - that is concerning as she never eats that much and should not be eating that much. We left 24 cans of food, about 10 lbs of dry food, an unopened box of Costco dog cookies, and an unopened box of Greenies from Costco. We were gone 12 days. When I got Zulu home, she was vomiting everyday and sometimes multiple times. I got her into vet, she was very dehydrated, had a fever, and had lost about 6 lbs. Thankfully, she finally is feeling better better and back to herself after 15 days. I am not sure what happened and I do sincerely hope that Jacob is okay and this was just a fluke.

Jacob, I’m sorry for only 2 stars, but I was worried about Bailey. I came home early from my trip because of that, and if it hadn’t been midnight when I got home, I would have picked her up Thursday instead of Friday as I did. And for this I paid double your typical price because it being over Valentine’s Day. All the barking dogs in your yard and house worried me because I don’t know how Bailey would react to more than 1 or 2 dogs at a time. And you very clearly did not want me in your house when I dropped her off. There was little communication and I had to ask for pictures. I’m sure you’re a great pet lover. I just was very uncomfortable with this whole situation. I guess we can say one thing good. At least she was kept safe.

I believe it’s important to know the dogs temperament, feeding schedule, any health or behavior concerns and experience with other animals, and also any known allergies.
