Pet care experience

Pet care you can count on!

I grew up on a farm and learned at an early age how to take care of animals and what they can mean to us. I have experience from horses, chickens, goats, and cows to cats, dogs, guinea pigs, reptiles and livestock dogs. When a pet is present, I usually will spend more time with the animal than other people in the room! I care deeply for our furry friends, and will treat your pet like my own. My wife Alli also loves animals, and we love having dogs in our home. My wife and I currently have two senior rescue cats that we love & cherish. We love dogs and look forward to having our own one day!

Alli and Jacob are wonderful sitters! My dogs have stayed with them several times now, and they treat them like their own. I always get great updates and photos, and my dogs are excited every time they go back. I’m so grateful to have found them!

Hank had a wonderful stay! They sent pictures and he looked so comfortable and happy. I love that they have a big backyard for lots of play. Hank will be back in a couple of weeks and can’t wait :)

I love getting out into the yard with dogs. I'll play fetch, tug of war, or happy to just run around the yard. I'll happily play with kitties if they're interested with enrichment toys
