Pet care experience

Ive had 3 dogs and a few cats in my lifetime, so I have plenty of experience with both young and senior animals!! Had a shepherd/Husky mix from birth who lived to be 15 yrs old! She was pretty feeble in her last year, so I know how to care for dogs with some special needs. We also had a 10 year old Siberian Husky who we just sent over the rainbow bridge last year. Our Husky was a senior dog so she took a few pills for pain in her old age so I do have that experience as well. We currently have a 6 yr. old domestic cat named Jack! And now a 3 year old Corgi names Brie! I’m available most days and some evenings with a few exceptions this fall and winter. I’m also a local professional musical theater actor so that keeps me busy in the evenings. Would love to walk or care for your fur kids! Prefer to stay in your home if needed for overnight stays but could also do short term stays at our place but your pup “MUST” be Good with Cats!;-) Thanks!!

This was the first time Jacob watched our dog Daisy. He sent me daily updates which was very reassuring. He seemed to really enjoy watching Daisy, he is a true dog lover. I would definitely recommend Jacob and I have already booked him for two other trips to watch our dog.

Can’t speak highly enough of Jacob! He went above and beyond while watching our pup. Was in communication and sent updates with pictures, which I loved! I was never worried and knew Todd was in good hands with Jacob watching him. Would definitely recommend Jacob to people in need of a pet sitter!

Jacob was phenomenal and responsive. Highly recommend. I’m definitely re-booking with him in the future. I trust my babies were taken care of extremely well. Having him look after my home and animals eased my mind during my vacation. He even took care of my two ducks! Thank you so much Jacob! ?????
