Purrfect Pet Companion: Care & Cuddles
EssendonAbout Jacob
Hello! I'm a passionate pet lover and seasoned pet sitter, deeply committed to ensuring the happiness and well-being of furry friends in their owners' absence. I WFH will love spending time with your pets keeping me company 😉
My motivation as a pet sitter is twofold; not only do I find joy in creating secure, loving environments for pets, but also, as a renter who is not allowed to have pets at my current place, it provides me with a wonderful opportunity to share my love and care with other animals. This personal challenge fuels my dedication to offering top-notch, personalized care, including playtime and enrichment.
For asthmatic and diabetic cats, I am well-versed in monitoring their symptoms, providing a calm environment, and administering prescribed medications, insulin as needed. Attention to detail and a gentle touch are crucial in ensuring their well-being.
Feeding medication to pets is another area of expertise. I am adept at following medication schedules, administering pills or liquids or jabs as prescribed. I prioritize creating a stress-free experience, employing patience and positive reinforcement to make the process as comfortable as possible for your furry companions.
As a pet sitter, my goal is to offer specialized care that goes beyond the basics, providing peace of mind for pet owners (regular updates!). With a focus on maintaining your pets' health and happiness, I look forward to delivering exceptional care during my visits, ensuring your pets receive the attention and medical support they require.
Beyond Pet Sitting: Cherished Care, Watering Plants, Collecting Mail, and More!

Reviews
I highly recommend Jacob.
He was incredibly easy to deal with. He was always punctual, friendly and communicative, and most importantly - Tilly liked him!
I will definitely use him again.
Jacob is a god sent pet sitter! I was lucky he took up this request as it was last minute. He made an effort to come for meet and greet and to understand the complex care requirements of a diabetic and geriatric cat. He did so well caring, medicating and checking the cat's blood sugar that one could not tell it was his first time caring for a diabetic cat. She was very stable and her routine was followed. He also initiated proposal to feed her differently whenever her blood sugar was borderline lowish. This shows he understood her medical condition well. He gave daily updates, and the house was very well kept and tidy. laundry from accidents from the cat were attended to promptly. I could tell from the photos that she was enjoying his company and was comfortable with his care. Thank you Jacob. Very grateful for the peace of mind you had given to me and my cat.
