Pet care experience

A young professional who loves pets

I have sat dogs of all sizes, cats, bunnies and ferrets. I can also feed anyone’s fish if needed. Animals love is unconditional. And they deserve that love back. Which I always give to them.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with love. I am very safe with animals. I follow directions thoroughly. I am a clean and organized person as well. If an animal needs to be cleaned up after or crated before I leave then that will be done. Any special requests I accept. Some clients have special ways to make their animal food which I can accommodate to. I am licensed in security so the animals and house will always be in good hands.

We couldn’t be happier with Jake! He went above and beyond to make sure our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Great communication and total peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!

Dog Walking • may. 10, 2026

Jake helped us with mid-day visits for our dog while we were away. He made sure she got outside for playtime (even in the rain), had fresh water afterward, and was settled back in before leaving. He was very friendly and responsive, and our cat enjoyed a little attention from him too, which was appreciated! We were grateful to have Jake's kind care this past week.

Jake is wonderful. We went on a trip for a week and he stayed with our older dogs. We got pictures and updates from Jake, he took them on walks and outside. The dogs are happy and the house was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jake. We never leave our dogs with anyone so this was a big deal and we can’t thank Jake enough for making this a great experience.

Jake is wonderful! He responds to inquiries super fast, is an excellent communicator, and clearly loves animals. He sent updates with photos of our pup, who had a great time hanging out with Jake for a night. I would highly recommend Jake to anyone, and we will definitely be booking with him again.

Jake was awesome. I was in town for a fairly stressful medical procedure. I have a service dog that travels with me and Jake came to my hotel and stayed with her. I’m very cautious about leaving her with anyone. I immediately felt at ease with Jake which relieved a tremendous amount of stress from an already stressful morning. I would highly recommend him.

Jake took very good care of Izzy and, more importantly, made me feel confident that he was being cared for while I was away. Very responsive and kept me up to date on how my pet was doing in my absence. Received just the right amount of reports and information I was expecting. Highly recommend Jake as a caring and responsible sitter.
