About Jacob H.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I currently don't have any pets but I always adhere to whatever care instructions the owner requests. I gain an animal's trust really quickly and treat all animals with love and respect.
Information Jacob H. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if there are any medications I'd need to administer, if you have pets that have to be separated during feeding, how early they like to get up, and how they are on a leash
A typical day
I love taking dogs on long walks. I am open to driving them to hiking trails if they are good in the car. I'm happy to play tug of war or fetch.

Avid animal lover and caregiver.
Pet care experience
I have grown up with pets (mostly cats) and love all animals dearly. I have a special knack with them. They seem to trust me, even those who are often wary of most folk. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, mice/rats, rabbits, reptiles, birds, and a variety of farm animals. My partner and I currently operate a cleaning and animal care business called Hygeia & Artemis. If you are interested in having your home cleaned in addition to the pet care provided we can discuss in person. It's always nice to return to a clean home and happy animals!
Cat care experience

Jacob also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews



Jacob really puts in the work to make sure our animals are taken care of and to keep us informed on how they're doing while we're away. This was our second time booking his service and we'll very likely reach out to him again when we have more travel plans in the future. We highly recommend his service to anyone who wants to be sure their animals are being looked after by someone who truly cares about their well being.
Did great with my anxious pup! Jacob sent pictures daily and was very clean

Jacob and his partner helped look after our very high energy doggie while we were out of town! The house was spotless when we returned and it was clear Billie was in good hands :)

Jacob helped me out on short notice, coordinated seamlessly with another sitter, and sent photo updates at every check in! He is calm and respectful and is great with Billie :)
