Jacob is SO courteous, kind and communicative! It is easy to trust him with our little pup, and he makes us feel at ease while we’re away. I’m confident Boog will get thoughtful attention and genuine care when he’s with Jacob. He was an easy “yes” for us to book regular services!

We had such a fantastic experience with Jacob! He was incredibly communicative throughout the weekend, sending us plenty of pics and updates that gave us total peace of mind. Louis can sometimes be cautious with new people and it was obvious he was well-cared for and had a great weekend too. Jacob even taught him a little behavioral training for barking we will now adopt into our lives! We already plan to rebook with Jacob and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!

Jacob is an amazing person to trust with your fur babies! He’s thoughtful, caring, and genuinely kind with every animal he meets. You can have complete peace of mind knowing they’ll be safe, loved, and well cared for in his hands. Jacob goes above and beyond to make sure pets feel comfortable and happy, and it really shows in the way animals respond to him. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter!
