Pet care experience

Every pet treated like family!

I grew up being the one primarily responsible for taking care of my family’s labradors. I’ve always been an animal lover. My family has both a Boykin Spaniel and a Russian Blue cat. I have also taken care of family friends and neighbors cats and dogs. I love going for walks and playing with furry friends.

Jacob is the best pet sitter! I’ve asked him several times to take care of my cat Cornelius and he does an amazing job every time. I also like that he doesn’t just show up, feed him, and leave. he’ll send us videos and pictures of him playing with Cornelius which I know my cat appreciates. 5 stars for Jacob (Cornelius’ best friend).

Jacob does an amazing job looking after my pets, and I can't recommend him highly enough!! He has come by multiple times now for drop-in visits when I go out of town, and always takes such good care of my dog and cat! He is excellent at communicating what activities he's done with the pets, and even sends the cutest pictures of them so I can see what they're up to while I'm away! My pit bull gets especially anxious when I leave town, but Jacob is always very patient with her and makes sure to keep me updated on whether she eats her food.

Jacob has been amazing with my two kittens. They love him, and he is very responsible. I highly recommend Jacob to anyone who needs a pet setter. You won’t find anyone as caring, responsible, or as thoughtful as Jacob!

Jacob was a wonderful pet sitter for my cat and dog. He was very responsible during the time he cared for them, keeping me up-to-date with photos and messages about how they were doing. During the 10 days while we were out of country I never had any worries.

Jacob is a conscientious and attentive pet caregiver. I know that when he takes care of my dog and cat they are in good hands. He gives my dog long walks and plays with and showers both pets with attention.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 2 story townhome with a small fenced in yard. My neighborhood is very pet friendly including a dog park. Although I have a cat and dog, they do not live in my townhome, and stay at my family’s house. Your pets would be receiving my full attention! I am very accommodating to any and all requests for your pet needs!

A typical day

I’d love to take your dogs for a walk around the neighborhood, or play indoors with your cats. If you have any requests please don’t hesitate to let me know!
