I am self-employed with minor side gigs, enjoy quiet evenings in and regular trips out into nature. I'm a very homey person and will be with and available for your animals the entire time I am with them. Providing pets with exercise, love, safety and my undivided attention is something I dedicate myself to. None of my side gigs are time intensive so feel assured I'm an extremely present sitter. Daily videos, pictures, updates and even walk tracking reports will give you complete peace of mind that your beloved pet is receiving above and beyond what mum/dad paid for. Just reach out and let's chat about your needs!

About Jake B.

Safety, trust & environment
My goal when house sitting is to provide COMPLETE peace of mind to travelers and pet parents who need truly loving replacements! As someone who loves going abroad and has my own dogs, I understand fully just how difficult it can be to balance the two. Trusting your beloved family members to anyone is always nerve wracking and full of uncertainty. That's what I'm here remove! I know just how valuable complete peace of mind is when you're travelling. How transformative it can be as a pet parent who wants to be present during their trip away. I also understand that achieving complete peace of mind is different for each parent. Discovering and encouraging parents to share every detail of their hopes, wants and expectations during a sit is my motto. Nothing is 'too much' to ask when it comes to achieving your complete peace of mind. Be as picky as you like. I am here for YOU! In regards to safety, trust and environment. As sitters we know that some pet parents may want cameras inside or outside the house. While I have no issue with this, I do require for that they be disclosed and depending on their location, disconnected during the sit. I've experienced cameras in bathrooms before and noone wants to see that! 😆

Information Jake B. would like to know about your pet
When booking me to care for your pet, there are several important things to know in advance to ensure a successful and stress-free pet care experience: 1. Distance/Travel: I am willing to travel a significant distance for pet stays that extend beyond a week or involve specific requirements. Please feel free to discuss the details of your pet's needs and the duration of the stay with me in advance. 2. Needs, hopes and expectations: These are all things we can discuss in person or over a call. My primary request is that you sooner ask 'too much' of me and be thrilled, then 'too little' and be disappointed. Every parent and pet is a special unique combination. My job as a sitter is to crack the code and achieve a perfect result. Communication is everything! 3. Pricing: There is always flexibility with me. I'm always open to discussing pricing details to ensure you get the best care for your pet within your budget. 4. This is just a bonus! I love forming bonds with animals and being that consistent, reliable and recognizable face for you and your pets. If you are someone who anticipates needing a regular/repeat sitter, let me know! Pet sitting is a process of building trust and I enjoy prioritizing the process.
A typical day
My choice of activities depends on the animal's personality, energy level, and preferences. I always ensure that the activities are safe and suitable for their physical condition. Ultimately, the goal is to create the perfect plan with YOU as I believe mom/dad knows best. I am always happy to bring my own flair of playtime, advice on behavior and insights to training. However, I'm not like many pushy pet sitters who try to force their approach to care onto the animal. I believe I'm here to be a mirror of you on your best and most enthusiastic day!

Pet care experience
🐾 All the Experience, All the Care, All the Love! Hello pet parents! We are a dedicated, highly experienced dog-sitting couple offering both premium house-sitting services and a safe, affectionate home-away-from-home boarding experience in Bexhill. If there's one thing better than a passionate animal caregiver watching your pet, it's a thoroughly experienced team. My partner Leah and I are both equally trained and adept lifelong pet lovers. Whether your dog is a bouncy puppy, an energetic powerhouse, a reactive rescue, or a gentle senior who just wants to snooze, we have the hands-on experience to provide the ultimate tailored care. I absolutely LOVE this work. I am miles away from the 'compassion burnout' many sitters report, and together, Leah and I feel we have found our calling. ✨ The Short & Sweet Version For those looking for the quick facts, here is what we bring to the table: Extensive Track Record: 3+ years of professional sitting, 150+ pets cared for, and 80+ happy households globally (USA, NZ, Australia, Asia, UK) with exclusively 5⭐ reviews. Lifelong Knowledge: 15+ years of owning and raising pets, complete with extensive behavioral and training knowledge. Total Reliability: We have a 100% commitment record. We have never canceled a sit. All Needs Covered: We are highly skilled with young puppies, elderly dogs, medication administration, emergencies, anxiety, and reactivity. We've done it all. 24/7 High-Engagement Care: We do this full-time with a highly flexible schedule, meaning there is always someone present with your pet. Peace of Mind: Daily updates, videos, and photos are sent without fail. Above & Beyond: Free meet-and-greets, 'lead-up' visits, and complimentary training skill reinforcement if requested. Budget Friendly: We are open to working with parents to establish a budget or payment structure tailored to your needs. 🏡 Your Dog’s Holiday Home in Bexhill We have recently opened our home in Bexhill for exclusive dog boarding! A Safe, Pet-Free Haven: We live in a spacious house with a secure garden. We currently have no other pets or animals in the home, meaning your dog gets 100% of our undivided attention. Beach Adventures: We are incredibly lucky to live just a 15-minute walk from the sea. Your dog’s days will be filled with engaging play, endless sniffs, beach walks, and boundless affection. 🏡 Exceptional House Sitting & Home Care If you prefer your pets to stay in their own environment, our house-sitting service is the most intensive and dedicated form of pet care available. Caring for animals from morning until night—handling difficult walks, precise feeding routines, separation anxiety, or end-of-life care—is second nature to us. Furthermore, we handle your home with the utmost diligence. My TrustedHouseSitters and Airbnb profiles demonstrate that I am a considerate and tidy housekeeper. Having previously worked as a janitor, I am incredibly thorough. I have a green thumb for plants, prioritize your home's security, and am always happy to perform routine maintenance. Returning a home in the same or better condition than when we arrived is a point of strong personal pride. 🐕 Our Hall of Fame: Pets We've Loved Our history of raising our own pets and caring for others is exhaustive, covering a massive range of temperaments, strength, and confidence levels. You can check out some fun videos I've made while sitting on Instagram. Pets We've Owned Over the years we have raised West Highland Terriers, Shiba Inus, Yorkshire Terriers, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, a Rottweiler, a Golden Retriever, a German Shepherd, cats (including a Russian Blue), chinchillas, and even a frog! Global Sits: Large & Powerful Breeds We are confident handlers for big dogs. Our sits include Great Danes in Australia, German Shepherd/Husky mixes in the UK, a Labrador/GSD mix in California, Golden Labs in the USA, Rough Collies, Boxers, and many more. Global Sits: Small & Medium Breeds We have cared for Bull Terriers, Basset Hounds, Bichon Frises, French Bulldogs, Westies, Shih Tzus, Poodles, Pomeranians, Dandy Dinmonts, and Chihuahuas. Feline & Exotic Friends We have looked after countless cats across Thailand, the UK, and the USA, plus multiple rabbits, lizards, and chinchillas globally. ...And So Many More! Please note, the lists above are just a snapshot! We have cared for so many more breeds and mixes than we could possibly fit into this biography. Whatever your dog's breed, background, or quirks, chances are we have the hands-on experience to make them feel completely at home. We are the sitters you can rely on to give you double the assurance of anyone else on the market. We don't just watch your pets; we welcome them into our family.
Reviews

Highly recommend! Despite booking this visit at short notice, Jake was extremely quick to respond. Leah was fabulous and obviously cared immensely about taking the best care of Oggy. He had a great time and I was updated very regularly with lovely pictures and videos. Oggy can’t wait to go back and stay there again!

Bertie had another great sit with Jake, and he's very much looking forward to the next 2 already booked in the diary! We're also looking for to seeing what Bertie and Jake get up too on their adventures!

Jake is a consummate professional when it comes to pet & House Sitting. We took off to India for 3 weeks, safe in the knowledge that our high energy, mischief seeking ,Working Cocker Spaniel would receive the best of care. We loved daily Whats App Video updates and came back to a home which Jake had left in an immaculate state.

Bertie very much has a new friend after his fantastic week with Jake, and he's very much looking forward to seeing Jake again. Jake provided daily photos and video updates, which was fantastic!... Just like Bertie, we look forward to seeing Jake again.
