Love animals

Pet care experience

I love all cats and dogs. i have had dogs and cats basically my whole life. I know how to give medicine from pills to insulin shots. I have worked at doggie day cares and have worked for petsitting companies. Animals are my life and want to make sure your animals are happy and full of love when your away. They will be happy when you get home. You won't have to worry about a thing! Pets are my life. I'll take care of your pupper or kitty as if they were my own. Will send daily updates to you if you want me to. Will show how happy and what fun your fur baby is having. Hope to be able to take care of your pet.

Jacob was very responsive with messaging and seemed knowledgeable about keeping dogs in house with his own pets.The meet and greet and drop off went well. I had no concerns at all leaving my dog with him. However, that ended abruptly. The eve of the first full night using Jacobs dog boarding services, I received a text from him saying, "I need you to find someone to get your dog". Apparently she was not getting comfortable, wasn't listening and was waking up their baby. Jacob ended up calling Rover and finding a new sitter who as able to pick Korra up. She adored Korra (3 year old female Great Dane) and had absolutley no issues at all. It was a very disappointing and uncomfortable feeling that I did not expect so just keep it in mind when booking this dog sitter or any dog sitter.

Jake took care of my pets for years and they love him as much as we do. We really miss him since he moved to Colorado.

Jacob (Jake) is fantastic! He is so great with all of my many fur babies, and even took care of my scaly ones too! You can tell that he truly cares for all animals, and I didn't mind leaving them with him at all. I always come home to happy pets! He is absolutely professional and didn't mind giving me updates. I would highly recommend Jake for anyone who wants to come home to a happy house. Sometimes going away can be worrisome and it is nice to cross one concern off my list!
