Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, caring dog lover
I’ve loved and cared for dogs throughout my life and have regularly helped friends, family, and neighbours with their pets. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and giving dogs plenty of attention and care. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. As a new Rover sitter, I’m excited to build trust with both pets and their owners by being reliable, responsible, and treating every dog with genuine care.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Jake is fantastic with our very large, high-energy husky, Bilbo! Bilbo has far too much energy, but Jake is energetic himself, so they get along brilliantly. Jake walks Bilbo once a week and also looks after him for the day sometimes. We always know Bilbo is in great hands and getting plenty of exercise, attention, and fun. It is clear that Jake really understands him and can keep up with his endless energy! We would highly recommend Jake to anyone looking for a reliable, energetic, and caring dog walker or sitter.
Jake has looked after our dog Peggy many times, and we honestly couldn’t recommend him more! Pegs is always so happy and comfortable with him, and gives us complete peace of mind whenever we’re away. Jake is reliable, friendly and we always know Peggy is in safe hands and being well looked after (and probably having a better time than us!). It’s lovely having someone we trust so much to look after her.
Jake is absolutely brilliant with dogs. He’s reliable, friendly and clearly genuinely loves being around them. I always feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with him, and he comes back happy, well exercised and shattered every time! Jake is also great at keeping you updated and is really easy to communicate with. Would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.
Jake is a natural with my 4-year-old Cockapoo, Ernie. Ernie can sometimes be a bit wary of men, but Jake made him feel very calm and comfortable. I would recommend Jake to anyone needing a dog walker or minder, he clearly absolutely loves dogs and they love him right back.

Schedule
I’m currently available full-time, which means I can offer plenty of flexibility and attention to the dogs in my care. I’m available for daily dog walks and doggy day care throughout the week, as well as boarding. As I don’t drive, I focus on providing reliable care locally and in the surrounding area. Being close to large green spaces also means plenty of opportunities for enjoyable walks and outdoor time.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a lovely, homely flat in a great location close to a large park and Epping Forest, providing plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time. I don’t currently have a pet of my own, so visiting dogs can enjoy their stay without concerns about clashing personalities with a resident pet. I also have plenty of experience being around dogs through family and friends, who have many different dogs. I’ll always follow your dog’s usual routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for.
A typical day
I love keeping dogs happy, active and entertained throughout the day. We’ll enjoy plenty of walks, play fun games, explore new smells and places, and visit a nearby park. I’ll also make sure they have time to relax, rest and feel comfortable in a safe, caring environment.
