Pet care experience

I love to make others happy

I just recently moved to the Shelton area and have been working with animals my whole life. Your pets are my #1 priority and I always value safety the most. It’s important to me that your pet gets the care, exercise and attention that it needs on a daily basis safely. I live on a golf course with a lake so it’s the perfect area for your pet to get fresh air with a scenic view and plenty of nature to enjoy. I’m always open to new ideas with adventures you’d like your pet to go on or how you’d like your pet to be taken care of. I’ve worked with all types of dogs from elderly/disabled to aggressive giant dogs and puppies that just had surgery. I look forward to meeting with you and your fur babies and set up a meet and greet!

Jakob took wonderful care of my dogs. They use e collars and slip leads, and he was very knowledgeable and familiar with proper use of these tools. He communicated well and my dogs came back to me very happy and relaxed. Thank you Jakob!

Jake was attentive and caring with our pup. He was able to manage the puppy energy and trained him throughout the stay. Very happy with his care.

Jakob was fantastic with our puppy Aero. Aero is energetic at 6 mo old and needs proper training and care. Jakob was caring and attentive, and we will definitely be working with him again.

Safety, trust & environment

My home does not have a fenced back yard so I will make sure anytime they leave the house they will be on a leash to keep them safe. I have a large shop where I spend most of my down time where they will have plenty of space to run around and get there zoomies out in a safe space. There are plenty of parks around me with water access at our lake and great walking trails/paths on the golf course where I live.

A typical day

I love to play with the dogs and get there brain working so they feel as if they have a job to do and rewarding them with either a toy or treats. There are wonderful trails around where I live to keep the dogs active and keeping them entertained
