Former Vet Tech, Compassionate

Pet care experience

Hello! I have 16 years of paid experience in animal care, a vet tech degree from the Vet Tech Institute at Fox College and FULL availability to care for your lovely pet(s). References upon request, drug and alcohol-free, with reliable transportation to take your pup for walks at the beach or the mountains. I have experiences with exotic and small pets and special needs kitties and doggies. Whether your cat would just like a warm lap, or your dog would like a romp by the sea, rest assured your companion will find comfort and joy with me. Available for short notice requests! Pet sitting and boarding is my passion and full time job so expect lots of updates and photos with every stay, walk, or drop-in. Your pet will get all the attention they want! I have a 1 year old chihuahua mix with lots of energy for play but whose best friend is my girlfriend’s senior Chiweenie so she knows when she needs to chill around another animal. Expect that your dog or cat will be snuggled, have lots of room to roam, and full access to a comfy bed. I’m also open to boarding small animals! Please know I communicate frequently including photos and if your pet is not eating/drinking or using the bathroom normally. I stay aware of potential health troubles as per my vet tech experience and am more than happy to accommodate special needs pets including med administration.

We cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Jakob watching our pup, Roo. If you want your pet to be well taken care of go with Jakob! We had a last minute out of state trip and Jakob was able to accommodate Roo for two weeks. Jakob met us prior to our trip in order for Roo to meet their pup, Sofia and get used to their home. It was such a relief to know she would be in good hands. Over the course of our trip, Jakob would send updates with lots of pictures, letting us know about all the walks and adventures on different trails and beaches that they were having. Roo seemed to have the best time with Jakob and Sofia and we could not have been happier. Thank you, Jakob!

Jakob gets a star for responding to communication. However, Jakob did not make good choices to make my dog feel safe or welcome or comfortable, even though I let Jakob know ahead of time that my dog can be nervous around new people. After I dropped her off he called within 2 minutes to let me know she had snapped at him, and I returned to get her. She has never before or since snapped at or bit anyone. After we left there, we went to visit family and friends who were also new to my dog, and she was fine and set her head on their laps and was very sweet.

Wow! What a wonderful caring dog lover! Jakob was very responsive to a very short notice need when I mistakenly book a dog free room. He even came to the hotel to get the puppy so I save my short vacation time. I have had a lot of rovers, and Jakob was the best by far!

Jakob has been watching my sweet but particular chiwinie for the last year. Bug is in love with Jakob and while he usually has separation anxiety, runs at the chance to leave me in the dust for their adventure time. Jakob does an excellent job navigating my dogs triggers and balances fun with structure in such a way I never worry about my or other animals safety. Highly recommend!

Let me know if your dog has any specific needs or behaviors I can account for. I have a very active puppy-like dog that may be too much for some senior pets.
