Pet care experience

Loving dog dad & caretaker

I've been an animal lover my whole life, from watching Steve Irwin on Animal Planet to raising my own furr babies. I love getting outdoors and spending time with my animals whether it be on a simple walk or taking the dogs swimming. My wife and I are avid travelers and I know what its like to wonder how your pet is doing at home. I want to give that reassurance to pet owners that their animal is being loved and in good, responsible hands so they can travel with peace of mind and enjoy their own adventure away from home. Feel free to ask about your reptile pets too!

Safety, trust & environment

Every animal is most comfortable in their own home and I like to extend that comfortability with my presence. I try to spend my time with the animals doing what they enjoy most, whether it be fetch or just cuddling on the couch to make them feel safe. Every pet is different and that's why verbal guidance from the owner is so vital in making a perfect atmosphere for an animal while its owner is away.

Jake was great with watching our 3 dogs at our home while we were away for a long weekend! He was communicative and sent pictures throughout the weekend. When we returned I think our home was cleaner than we left it! Thanks, Jake! Would definitely use again if he wasn’t going to be leaving the area.

Jake is a truly loyal, trustworthy, and detail-oriented individual. He has been a trusted friend for over 30 years and has taken great care of our animals (dogs, cat, fish, and Guinea pigs) whenever we needed. I highly recommend him!

It is important to know many things such as if the pet has any medications or special refimens. It is important to know what time they typically eat, how much, and how many times a day. It is important to know what their potty schedule is.
