I’m currently working from home so I’m readily available to make sure your pet gets full attention. I typically am up early in the morning, so starting the day with a walk outside is my go-to routine. I’m super flexible throughout the day as well.

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet owner is different, but making sure our pets are safe and taken care of is my goal. Whether you need them boarded up or to stay off your garden— I got your back and will make sure they stick to their normal routine. This way everyone is comfortable, happy and safe!

Information Jacob K. would like to know about your pet

My partner is a veterinarian with a surgical background, so I’ve seen it all and I’m very familiar with very unique cases. Whether you need me to administer medication or handle a special case, I have the experienced (along with a professional expert as backup)!

A typical day

I love to take my animals on long walks with plenty of exercise. Whether it’s walking around the neighborhood or throwing a frisbee at the park— they deserve as much as they can get! The last thing any animal should experience is a lack of fresh air and movement.

Pet care experience

From dogs to cats, rabbits to cockatiels, and of course we cannot forget the occasional beta fish— I love working with animals and having pets. Growing up with many large breed dogs for 25+ years, I’m very comfortable with any size animal and I’m always up for the challenge. I love spending as much time outside with my own pets, so getting some exercise and going for walks is always my priority. My goal is to make you feel comfortable knowing that your furry (or feathery) family members are taken care whether you’re gone for a few hours or a few days.

This is the second time Jacob has watched my boys and he did a great job. Super responsive and communicative, even sending pictures. Definitely recommend!!

Jake was the best! I was super nervous to leave my dogs for almost an entire week, especially because one of them has health issues and dog aggression. Jake did a great job reassuring me prior to and throughout my trip that my dogs were in the best of care. He gave regular updates, responded quickly, great communication, brought our mail in, and even left a note welcoming us home. Highly recommend!

Jacob did an excellent job with our two rescue beagles! They are not the easiest to walk with right now but he did a great job. Communication was great. I’ll definitely book with him again!

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.
