Highlights
Pet care experience
Everything for ur pet under 1 woof!
What sets me apart as a sitter is that animal care isn’t just something I do on the side, it’s genuinely where my heart is. I’ve been around and caring for animals my entire life, with over 17 years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, rabbits, turtles, and horses. I’m naturally very nurturing and observant, and I truly treat every pet like they’re apart of my own family. I’m home most of the time and able to give pets a lot of attention, supervision, love, and consistency. I really try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, like a vacation of their own. I also volunteer at The Animal Foundation and have completed Fear Free training in animal handling, safety, body language, and behavior. Combined with my background in psychology and medicine, I’m especially attentive to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, energy level, stress, and overall well-being. If something seems off, I don’t ignore it, I adjust care as needed and communicate so owners always feel informed and reassured. I also have experience administering injections and oral medications, and I understand how important patience, gentleness, consistency, and observation can be for pets with medical needs, anxiety, or senior care. Every pet is unique, and one of my favorite parts of this job is getting to know their individual personality, routines, quirks, and preferences so I can care for them in the way that makes them feel happiest and most at home.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Savannah & Jacob were absolutely amazing!!! This was our first time using Rover and first time using boarding services for our dogs. They sent us pictures and videos everyday, and kept us updated. Our dog recently got surgery and they were great at caring for our dog Miklo. Thank you for giving our dogs so much love & care while we were gone, will definitely contact them again!
Savanah & Jacob were awesome! Reliable, friendly, and great with my 2 schnauzers. Definitely will use for future check-ins!
Savanah and Jacob were both so great to work with. Great communication throughout and you can tell they truly love animals and took amazing care of my old man (Bosco). Could not recommend a better sitter- I would not hesitate to use them again! Thank you!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Savanah & Jacob are very kind, attentive and just overall amazing sitters! They treated my little girl like their own. Communication was 10/10, I received a ton of pictures and videos, keeping me updated at all times, which I appreciated a lot! The home environment is very important for me, their home is beautiful, very clean and quiet, which definitely helped my girl feel like at home! Definitely recommend Savanah & Jacob to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter! Looking forward to our next visit to Vegas and booking their services again!
Savannah and Jacob were wonderful taking care of our senior pup, Chewy! From our initial meet and greet, I could tell they were kind, trustworthy, and genuinely cared about him. I felt completely at ease knowing Chewy was in great hands while we were away. I would absolutely book with them again!
Savannah and Jacob were so nice and caring! They updated me everyday with tons of photos and some funny videos! My baby was very timid and they helped her to feel comfortable and practiced her tricks. Would definitely recommend them to anybody needing to board your dog.

Schedule
My schedule is pretty flexible! Most Thursdays and Fridays I work out of the house, usually between 9AM–2PM, though those hours can vary a bit from week to week. Jacob is usually home on those days until around 2PM, so on a typical Thursday or Friday there may be a short period where your pet is home alone between our schedules. Outside of that, someone is usually always home, and your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and love throughout their stay. If we do have to leave them alone for a short period, we always set up an indoor camera so we can check in on them. We have a doggy door so they always have access to the yard. We’re also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for while they’re with us.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize safety, supervision, and maintaining a calm, comfortable space where pets can feel right at home. I follow owner instructions very carefully because I know how important consistency and trust are when someone is caring for your pet. Even though the yard is fully fenced, pets are still supervised outside and I also have security cameras for extra peace of mind. Living in Vegas, I’m very aware of the heat, so pets are never outside for long periods in the heat, and the yard has a canopy to provide shade. We have a doggy door insert for the sliding glass door, so they can go in and out as they want.
A typical day
I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so they’re not just being “watched”, they’re being included in my day. Most days include lots of attention, cuddles, potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, and relaxing together throughout the day since I’m home most of the time. Consistency can really help reduce stress while owners are away so a typical day really depends on the pet. I try to match their normal routine, personality, and energy level as closely as possible. For higher-energy dogs, I’m happy to do early morning walks, hikes, park trips, or extra playtime before the Vegas heat kicks in (with owner approval of course). For more relaxed or senior pets, I’m just as happy spending the day chillax’n, cuddling on the couch and keeping things calm and comfy.

- To ensure the safest and best care possible, I ask that owners share the following information before care (where applicable): • Exercise needs/ walking preferences • Leash behavior for larger dogs (generally over ~70 lbs) • Any history of biting or reactivity toward people or animals/ resource guarding. •Any food restrictions (including treats, pup-cups, table scraps, or human food) • Training cues or commands your pet knows • Medical needs: Medications, chronic conditions, allergies, recent health changes, history of diarrhea or vomiting • Escape behaviors: Door-dashing, digging, or slipping out of harnesses. • Anxiety or behavioral concerns: Separation anxiety, new environments, crate preferences, or stress triggers. • Activities/Outings: Whether you’re comfortable with car rides, walks, hikes, or other outings during their stay & if your dog is well-socialized and approved for dog parks (if requested). • House rules you want enforced at our or your home: Furniture access, crate use, feeding locations, and sleeping arrangements. • Anything that helps your pet feel safest, happiest, and most comfortable while you’re away
