Jacob has been taking care of our pets for close to 7 years. He has always gone above and beyond for our dogs as well as our very neurotic green cheeked conure. He has also done pet sitting for three of our neighbors. And everyone loves him. Our next door neighbors dogs are very afraid of fireworks, and they were out of town over the 4th. Jacob was pet sitting for them and he went over and stayed with them until the city’s fireworks were over. It’s obvious that Jacob is a true animal lover. And they all return the sentiment.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am currently working part-time, which means I have a flexible schedule and can prioritize your pet’s needs. I am available throughout the day, so whether you need a midday drop-in, an early morning walk, or evening care, I can make it work!

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most safe and comfortable. I try and follow their routines closely to ensure your pet experiences minimal disruptions while you are away. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Pets

A typical day

Whenever I watch pets, I prefer to maintain their routines. If they’re playful, we can play with their favorite toy. On the other hand, if they’re not in the mood, I can create a more relaxed environment where they can receive ample attention and affection.

Please let me know if your pet has any specific needs or routines that I should be aware of. I’ll do my best to accommodate them and create a comfortable and stress-free environment for them!
