Information Jacob G. would like to know about your pet

All pets have special personalities that make you love them! Let me know anything you believe is important to know about your pet during their time with me.

A typical day

I live right beside a walking path that has two miles worth of sidewalk. If you have high energy pets, I love to exercise with them (running, fetch, etc).

Pet care experience

Leave your pets with someone that cares! Our family of four love all animals. I have had several animals in my family growing up. I have a strong understanding for pets and their behavior because of raising them when I was young. I will take them at any age and I am very flexible with the schedule. I have a medium size backyard and two parks to take walks right beside me.

I would highly recommend Jacob for pet-sitting. Our dogs were well taken care of. He visited more often than what was required. Great at communicating and accepted our sitting request on short notice.

Jacob did an awesome job watching rex! It was very easy to trust him and he gave us updates everytime he left the house and sent pics as well. We have a shy dog and Jacob let him warm up slowly instead of rushing it. We'll definitely be hiring him in the future!

Jacob treated Ace like part of the family. He checked in every day and even planned fun activities for him. I’d definitely recommend Jacob if you’re looking for someone you can trust to take great care of your fur baby.

Jacob was absolutely amazing with my dogs! He took such great care of my anxious pitbull, Pickle, and my high-energy Boston terrier, Gizlita. I usually feel so stressed when traveling, constantly worrying about how they’re doing back home—but with Jacob, I had complete peace of mind. He sent multiple updates, which made such a difference and really put me at ease. I came home to a house that was just as I left it, and even better, my dogs genuinely looked like they had the best time. It’s clear he didn’t just “watch” them—he truly cared for them. I will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
