Big Home, Loving People

Pet care experience

Ten years ago, I offered to watch a neighbor's energetic golden retriever while they were on vacation. Little did I know that this simple ask would enlighten my love for taking care of the precious animals we call family. Today, through my experience and knowledge of dogs and cats alike, I have become an experienced and professional dog sitter. From nervous meows to confident barks, I've become fluent in the language of furry friends. Whether calming anxieties during a lightning show, expertly handling a terminally ill dog by administering their medication orally, or simply providing a safe haven for an aging soul, my experience has sculpted me into a seasoned pet-whisperer, ready to care for your four-legged family like my own. So, if you'd like to deal with a professional, on-time, loving, and caring dog sitter, then look no further!

Jacob took very good care of our dog, while we were away! He also took extremely good care of the house, leaving it in tiptop shape for when we arrived back home.

Jacob was on time, asked a lot of questions so he was sure of how to care for our pup, and very friendly to work with. We hope to have him again!

Jacob took great care of dog, even giving him extra attention and care as Milo recovered from a sickness. He communicated well and was great with our requests and Milo’s needs

Information Jacob R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know whether your dog has allergies or not! It absolutely will not change whether I book or not, just important to know. Through experience, i've given dogs medication, (orally-havent attempted an injection before) fed them specific diets, and given them specific attention like training!

A typical day

Through experience, i've plaid fetch, thrown a big rubber ball, taught them tricks, and walked them around the neighborhood/surrounding areas. Whatever you normally do for your dog, just let me know and I'd be more then happy to accomodate! I want the dogs to feel like you havent even left :)

I have a 3 year old brown lab named Jax. I walk him, feed him, and play with him! I'm currently traning him, and he's learning very quickly.
