Pet care experience

animal lover

Hello I am available everyday and I am experienced in giving medication, oral care and specialized diets. I have had animals including dogs and cats my entire life. I have a Chocolate lab myself who loves to play with other dogs, even the big dogs. I love to take trips to the dog beach. I am able to give baths and do light grooming. A happy dog is a clean dog. I can assist any care that is needed. Whatever you are teaching at your house, I am more than happy to implement that while I am caring for them.

Jacob did an amazing job caring for our dog, Spencer! We received several great photos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind and showed how happy and well cared for Spencer was. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that Jacob genuinely cared about him. We completely trust Jacob to care for Spencer anytime and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Highly recommend!

Jacob was amazing. He’s very nice and professional. He sent us pictures and updated us while we were gone. I didn’t worry once while we were away. We will definitely use his services again. Your pets will be in good hands! O

Jacob is absolutely phenomenal!! After 3 years I finally found the perfect pet sitter!! Plenty of pictures and updates. He took exceptional care of the pack! He went over and beyond taking care of everything, including making sure the plants and flowers were watered while I was gone for the week! I will definitely be rebooking with Jacob again

I have a nervous Nelly (my chocolate yorkie) and a tank of a cat who thinks she might miss a meal. I came home to a calm environment and my dog transitioned from him to me without a single bark (my preference) and no shivering. That means one thing to me as a pet owner. They loved Jacob and although I'm scared to give him such a great review bc it'll mean that he might be too busy for me next time, he has earned it. In addition, very respectful, responsive and trustworthy.

Jacob is the best dog sitter I have ever had. Bailey loved him and took to him right away. My boy is diabetic and has some health issues and I have a hard time leaving him with people, but not anymore. I will be planning my schedule around Jacob’s schedule from now on. He came on his own time to meet with us to observe our routine. He checked in with me regularly, sent me pictures, disrupted his own schedule to take extra care of Bailey. I trust him completely with my precious boy. On a personal note, Jacob is super friendly, gentle, kind, and a trustworthy soul, easy to talk to, so comfortable to be around. I can’t praise him enough. He is truly a blessing and a dog whisperer.
