Jacob was a fantastic dog sitter for our two dogs Doug and Goomba. He provided exceptional communication with multiple updates + pictures each day. He was also very kind, prompt, and left our home very clean. We will absolutely request him as a sitter again and can’t recommend him highly enough! Thank you Jacob!

Jacob did a great job taking care of my kitties! They were comfortable with him from the start. Again, super job!

Jacob was great with my dog and cat. My cat is super chill, and loves everyone, but my dog can be a little pickier. But, it didn't take any time at all for her to warm up to Jacob. He spent two days with her, and when I got home from my trip, I think she was disappointed that it was me coming through the door, and not him :) I would absolutely use Jacob again in the future, and would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to take care of their pets.

Jacob was outstanding. He was prompt, attentive to the schedule we left for our puppy, and clearly had good experience in dealing with dogs. Our puppy loved him! We are sad he doesn’t live in Richmond where we live because we’d book him all the time! Thank you Jacob.
