I love all pets like my own.

Pet care experience

I've always had animals growing up, so I would like to assume I'm well versed in taking care of pets! I have also house sat and dog sat before but only for family friends or neighbors nothing in a "professional" sense I am currently a college student so thankfully I have a decent chunk of availability, as well as with not many classes or any at all being in person frees up even more time. This is a required field but unfortunately I am not providing home services due to my own pets being a little unfriendly to new faces

Jacob did an excellent job watching our dogs. His check-ins were always on time and he was great at providing updates and communicating with us. We will Definitely book him again.

Very friendly and flexible. All was right and our kitten seemed very happy when we got home.

Jacob is awesome! They listen to and respect all the expectations I communicate with my fur kids. They’re very responsive and easy to work with. I’m so very happy to have found them to care for my pets. Thank you for your time!
