About Jacob

Reviewed on 1/9/2025

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jake through Care.com, and I cannot recommend him highly enough as both a tutor and a pet-sitter. Jake is a rare find—someone who combines dedication, expertise, and genuine care for both children and pets. As a tutor, Jake's ability to explain complex concepts in an engaging, easy-to-understand manner is truly remarkable. He immediately established a great rapport with my child, creating a positive and stress-free learning environment. His lessons were well-structured, fun, and tailored to my child’s learning style. In just a few sessions, we noticed significant improvement in my child's confidence and academic performance. Jake goes above and beyond, always checking in after sessions to provide helpful feedback and suggestions for additional practice. As a pet-sitter, Jake is equally impressive. He took the time to get to know my pets’ individual needs and routines, and it was evident from the moment we met that he genuinely loves animals. My pets were so comfortable with him, and I felt at ease knowing they were in such caring hands. Jake sent regular updates, complete with photos, which made me feel connected and reassured while I was away. Jake's professionalism, kindness, and reliability have made him someone I will continue to trust with both tutoring and pet care. If you're looking for someone who is passionate, skilled, and truly cares about the people and animals they work with, look no further than Jake!
