Pet care experience

Home full-time

I truly care about animals well-being. A pet can be a wonderful addition to any home, but whether you're an experienced pet parent or a first-time adopter, it's important to keep your pet companion's health and happiness a top priority. I enjoy playing with them and showing them new things. If someone leaves their dog with me they can feel completely safe they are taken well care of. I will treat any person's dog the same as I would my own. I know what to look for if the dog does not feel well or needs extra attention. I have a very good sense of dogs needs such as when they are hungry or need to go outside. I look forward to hearing from you.

Jacob was great with communication and my animals were all taken care of despite how short notice our trip was. I cant thank him enough for easing our worries knowing how well our fur babies were taken care of.

Jacob has been great. He came at the last minute to help when I was unable to walk my Toffee. Very friendly and helpful. Even gives me tips to help train my new dog. I'm greatful to have found him!

I was so nervous to leave my baby girl, Ginger, with a stranger for a week. However, Jacob was great. His dog was so friendly and he and Ginger got along wonderfully. I got updates and pictures. Jacob always returned my messages when I was feeling worried or guilty. When we picked Ginger up, she was excited to get back home, but I could tell she missed Jacob and R. too. I hope I don't need a dog care provider in the future, but if I do, I will be messaging Jacob.

I've just got to say Jacob T and his family were the best choice ever! Having 2 5 month old puppies is quite a challenge, and finding good caretakers is hard enough. My dogs Odie and Bailey were very happy on their doggyvaca. It felt good knowing they rec'd the attention, exercise, and love that they needed. We rec'd updates and great pics while we were on our human vaca. Plus our pups made a great new friend in Rowdy! We will be using them from here on out whenever we have to be gone. Thank you for this site. Without it we would have been lost. Thank you Jacob and Tara and family for such great care.. .... ( and teaching them stairs..lolol )although they still aren't allowed down ours alone..lol.......... rating 10/10 ......... most excellent!
