I love dogs more than anything

Pet care experience

I work from home so I'm able to be with the dog ALL DAY. My friends call me the dog whisperer because every dog adores me.. I start my day at 6 AM with a 3 mile run and go for another run during my lunch break around noon. I am a VERY active person so you can expect the dog to get LOTS of excercise! Or if your pup is more of a dog that likes to chill i can make that happen :) I Moved to San Diego from MN 4 months ago and wasn't able to bring my Poodle that I had adopted last year (at least not yet). I grew up with always having 2+ dogs since I was 3 years old (now 24) and have always been a HUGE dog person. I like getting outside 2-3 times a day, whether it's a walk around the neighborhood or a light run. Always spoiled my dogs at home and I understand how much a dog can mean to somebody so I'd treat your dog like it were one of my own. Dogs are MORE than welcome to lounge on couches and my bed at night! Might even take a few cool pictures of your dog too with my camera :D

We can't say enough good things about Jacob and the excellent Rover experience our "Bear" had with him!!! We highly recommend Jacob and would definitely call on him again to pup-sit! Like many pet owners, we are nervous leaving our dog, but Jacob made us feel completely at ease and confident that our pup was in good hands. Jacob is punctual and responsible in every way and the care and attention he cheerfully provided was beyond our expectations: our huge Malamute is very athletic and active--Jacob took him on long runs every day! Working from home, Jacob is present to provide companionship and belly rubs in a loving, comfortable home-away-from-home. Thank you, Jacob, for being the ideal pup-sitter!! (We appreciate all the photo updates you sent...fun, fun, fun!) Rover is a great concept and Bear had a much happier time than he would have had caged at a kennel.

Really Grateful for Josh watching my English Bulldog Gibson. I got caught on a snow storm and he accommodated and took care of him with no issue. :)

Thank you so much Jacob for taking care of Ranger over Christmas!! Jacob was incredibly flexible agreeing to watch Ranger last minute before the holiday and super friendly and professional throughout the entire experience. I received multiple updates and photos throughout Ranger's stay and he came home super happy and tired from all the long walks and fun he had. I really appreciate you taking such great care of my pup and look forward to working with you again!!

How does the dog do on a leash? Does your dog bark a lot at noises/people outside? I do not have any breed preferences as I am just your classic "dog lover" and I appreciate any sized dog or breed :D
