Safety, trust & environment

I will treat your furry companion with the upmost love and patience. I will always respect your animals and will be happy to help out your animal(s) however you see fit. With my extensive knowledge and experience in veterinary medicine I assure you they will receive top quality care with me :)

Information Jake R. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any special need your pet may need, especially with regard to medication or behavioral triggers. I am more than happy and capable to accommodate to the needs of every animal.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your pet both physically and mentally! All animals are different so it is important for me to understand what your pet would enjoy. However, my favorite activity is going for walks or playing fetch!

Pet care experience

I have committed my life to the well being of all animals and your pet will be no different! My career includes working in veterinary medicine, pet shelters, and wildlife rehabilitation centers. I regularly work and care for pets of all ages, sizes, and aggression. I work with all kind of animals including cats, dogs, small mammals, birds, reptiles, and many more. I have extensive knowledge of medicine and medication. I have direct animal interactions and have learned safe handling techniques with animals ranging from friendly to dangerous. I love pet sitting and would be happy to make sure your pet has the care they deserve :)

Jake did a fantastic job taking care of our dog Guinness, and even gave him an extra long walk. I especially liked that he made sure Guinness got enough water throughout the day. Will definitely book with Jake again. :)

Jake is an absolutely amazing pet caregiver. He is a natural with animals-he understands them and they trust him instinctively. He is incredibly patient with animals and he loves to play with them. My cats both love him- even the one that doesn't like anyone! Jake is also super dependable and responsible, so he won't leave you or your furry friends hanging.
