Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat dad and longtime pet caretaker!
Although I've had cats for about 8 years, I also love dogs and grew up with several. I work in a dog-friendly office and co-workers have often referred to me as the dog whisperer because their dogs all seem to like me as well! Cats typically warm up to me quickly too. As much as I like hiking and playing fetch with dogs, a lazy afternoon of kitty cuddles is just as good. I grew up with a pug who had eye/ear problems and frequently needed droplets, and my cat once had an ear infection and UTI so I am familiar with several types of ailments of our furry friends and have some experience administering medicine. Former roommates, neighbors, and relatives have relied on me to care for their dogs and cats. I look forward to meeting more pets and making new friends! Fun fact: Years ago, I taught our 9 year old family dog how to shake. It turns out you can teach an old dog new tricks! I love going for hikes on weekends and I can't think of anywhere else that's better than Summit County. I often wish I had a dog companion to join me! My cats unfortunately aren't big fans of being on a leash (and I've tried). My cats are my kids. I understand the stress that comes with entrusting a stranger with your precious pets and home, I've been there too. I take my commitments very seriously and gaining your trust is always extremely important. I look forward to meeting you, your pets, and doing all that I can to make you feel at ease while out of town.

Safety, trust & environment
I unfortunately am not allowed to have any additional pets in my own home, but will be happy to drop in and visit pets in yours! I mainly focus on the Breckenridge area but may be able to branch out to neighboring areas depending on the day.
Ratings and reviews
Our boys had an incredible time with Jake, as per usual! One of our cats spilled their water bowl over and Jake helped clean it up and fanned it out every day so we wouldn’t get water damage.


Jake is attentive, accommodating and kind when it comes to taking care of pets and your home when needed. He understands the challenges of families, travel and how to care for animals. I highly recommend Jake and his love for cats! 🩷🧡

Jake was super attentive as always! I checked in with him beforehand about the fires, and he was ready to evacuate our boys if needed.


Jake was great with our boys as per usual!


Our cats were so happy that Jake was keeping them company over the weekend. Our younger guy even got the zoomies, which he only does around people he’s super comfortable with.


Our boys had an incredible time with Jake, once again! One of our cats is dealing with a large cyst pre-surgery right now, and Jake was very attentive to him and monitored it for any issues.

Schedule
I work weekdays and will most likely only be able to do drop-ins evenings and weekends, (maybe mornings and lunchtime visits if you’re in Breckenridge) but I can bring well behaved dogs with me to work on some days. I also have the flexibility to work remotely on occasion and may be able to accommodate all-day stays or longer.
