Your reliable ATX doggo buddy :)

I’ve been watching family/friend puppers my whole life! Back home in Indiana, I’ve helped raise my families’ Golden Doodle and Vizsla. Here in Austin, I’ve been able to take care of friends with weekend getaway house sitting for Doodles as well.

We recently had Jacob stay with our dog and it was a 10/10 experience from start to finish. His communication was top-notch and he updated us throughout with photos of her and general updates. Jacob went the extra mile in ways that really showed how much he cares about the dogs in his care!! We are so grateful to have found him and will 100% be returning customers!

Jake has been great with both of our dogs: playing fetch with them, taking them for walks and providing lots of scratches! He is very responsible with a great attitude!
