About Jake

Hi, my name is Jake and i’m based in Thornbury, Melbourne! I am a huge animal lover spending the first 20 years of my life surrounded by 2 dogs, 4 cats and even some chickens.

To me, dogs and cats are incredible companions and I love being around them. Pre global pandemic I used to travel a fair bit for work and leisure and therefore I have opted to not have a full time dog or cat of my own but I miss having them around.

I now work full time at home and can therefore offer a range of services including hosting at my place for a few days to a few weeks, dog/cat daycare and dog walking. I live in a building full of dogs and have a couple of great dog parks 2 minutes from my house, with some great facilities for the dogs to enjoy. Plus I am very close to Merri Creek for longer walks.

I am also happy to look after your pet at your place including walking them and feeding them. If caring for your pet at yours, I can both do overnight stays or once or twice daily visits etc as required as I generally work from home.

I live in an apartment but can cater for large or small dogs as I have a large secure balcony for outdoor space and as I work from home there will be plenty of walks on the card. My latest pet sits have included a shih tzu dog called Hugo, a golden retriever called Harry, a staff called Tommy and a cat called Bernie!

All animals will be treated as members of the family and are welcome to sleep in the beds their owners provide or on the my couch.

Cant wait to look after your member of the family!

My border collie had the best time with Jake and he was so great with updating me on their activities! Definitely will be in contact again ☺️

Jake was extremely helpful and accommodating at short notice while we were in Melbourne. Will definitely use him again when we're there next.
