Willa boarded with Jake for a weekend and loved it! He was extremely easy to work with and met all of her care needs. I would book with him again in the future!

Jake did a fantastic job caring for my older dog, Sadie, for a long weekend after a last-minute need arose. Sadie often takes some time to adjust to changes from routine, but Jake’s care and companionship put her at ease soon into her stay. He saw to her needs consistently and kept me updated during my time away. I would gladly have him care for Sadie again and recommend his dog sitting care to others.

Doggy Day Care • Apr 04, 2024

Jake was so patient with our puppy who we didn’t realize apparently has major separation anxiety. He took him for a ton of walks and spent lots of time with him. Jake was also great about communicating to see if there was anything he could do to make our puppy more comfortable! Thank you so much for your patience Jake, and for taking care of our little guy.

Copper can be a little shy around tall men, but Jake did such a great job of being patient and then making friends with her. She had a great time on her walks and he sent me a few pictures so I knew she was getting good attention. I’d recommend Jake for all your dog walking needs!

Since I am working from home, I am able to give dogs all the attention they need throughout the day and take them for walks whenever they need.

I love to go on long walks and when possible hikes in the nearby state parks. I enjoy playing games with the pets when they want to or just relaxing on the couch.
