Athlete who loves dogs!

Pet care experience

I am a 20 year old student-athlete at OCC in Costa Mesa who has grown up with dogs of all breeds. I live in a one bedroom apartment that overlooks a dog run that is open 24/7. Having grown up with dogs I understand that your dog is part of your family and with me, that doesn't change one bit! Dogs that stay at my place are free to hop on the couch and watch tv with me or be pet and walked till they have had their fill (if your dogs are anything like mine, they can never get enough!). All I ask is that guests are potty trained and know how to use their "inside voices". If your pup stays with me on the week days I do have one class in the morning and practice in the afternoon each day. Fortunately I live across the street from school so fitting in a walk before and after class and practice is not a problem! What Jake would like to know about your dog I would love to know about socialization, does your companion play well with others? Either way is fine, I just dont want to overwhelm your dog if he/she is not accustomed to public environments or other animals. Does your dog do well in cars? And of course medical background/history, and any behavioral issues or quirks. I can get all the details when we meet! looking forward to meeting you and your pup!

Jacob was great. My dog immediately felt comfortable with him and they went on plenty of hikes and walks to help her with her anxiety. Great guy, will definitely use again in the future!

Jake is the perfect friend for your active dog! My two dogs are more excited to see him than me. He can play, run or scratch till your dog is worn out. He truly loves dogs and it shows. Do your dog a favor and call Jake.

I met Jacob after he rescued my 8 year old Shih Tzu, Buddy. Buddy had gotten lost and Jacob found him and took him to the vet. He took great care of Buddy until he figured out where he belonged. Since then, Jacob has watched Buddy multiple times and takes him on walks regularly! I wouldn't trust anyone else with Buddy.

Jacob is an amazing caretaker of animals. He has watched my bullmastiff Rizzo for extended weekends and has taken him on walks. During Rizzo's time with Jacob i've gotten plenty of pictures and video of Rizzo enjoying himself at the dog park and even curled up on a pillow on the couch. Rizzo wags his whole booty when Jacob comes to see him, and you know what they say, dogs know best. As for the human part Jacob is flexible, takes the time to get to know my dog, and leaves me feeling confident Rizzo is in good hands. I will definitely leave Rizzo with Jacob again!
