(I created this page because I genuinely enjoy filming and editing videos - but more importantly, it gives people a real sense of who I am, how I connect with animals, and the energy I bring into a home.)

Hi, I’m Jak, a down-to-earth Englishman who has been house sitting on and off for the past two years and genuinely loves it. Since my visa is temporary, I can’t commit to a pet of my own (an unfortunate twist of fate), so caring for other people’s furry family members has become the perfect solution.

Alongside house sitting, I study part-time toward a Graduate Diploma of Business and run my own men’s mental health boxing program. Both keep me structured, active, and grounded, and have taught me the importance of consistency, responsibility, and showing up properly - values I bring to every house sit.

I’ve cared for a wide range of pets, from tiny teacup Maltese with big personalities to majestic Cane Corsos who firmly believe they’re lap dogs. I’ve also looked after some truly regal cats, including a Sphynx (yes, the bald ones), who may well be the most affectionate cat I’ve ever met.
I’m calm, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s morning beach walks, evening cuddles, or enthusiastic games of fetch, I make sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away.

You can expect regular photo and video updates, a spotless home, and complete peace of mind while you’re travelling.

In short, I’m trustworthy, attentive, and just humorous enough to keep both you and your pets entertained - although, in my experience, the pets usually steal the spotlight.

Jak took good care of my home and my chihuahua for the 3 weeks I was away. Communication was great, both prior and during, and my home well cared for, neat and tidy on return. My dog was safe and well. The whole process was very easy and I feel confident and relaxed regarding Jak's care and integrity. I appreciate his time and help during the sit.”

Jak looked after our home and elderly Labrador, Oscar (14 years), while we were away overseas for 2 months. Oscar was cared for outstandingly - he looked amazing on our return! Our home was spotless. Various friends and relatives called in to make sure that Jak didn't need anything from them because it was such a long holiday and said that each time Oscar was happy, the house was well maintained, clean and the backyard cleared of the interminable leaves from the verge trees. We can't sing Jak's praises enough and would be very happy to use him again. It was the first time we had sourced a dog and house sitter through Mindahome and the process was very easy. Thanks so much Jak!
