Information Jacob R. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any special needs or medications your pet requires. Please inform me of any separation anxiety, destructive behavior, medical issues, and allergies. This will help me incorporate their care into our routine and ensure they stay healthy and comfortable. Thank you!

A typical day

When I watch pets, I make sure to keep them engaged and entertained with a variety of fun activities. For dogs, I organize regular walks, playtime, and interactive games like tug-of-war. If they enjoy it, we might also visit nearby parks for a change of scenery. For cats and other animals, I provide plenty of toys, puzzles, and hides to keep them stimulated. My goal is to tailor activities to each pet's preferences to ensure they stay happy and active while under my care.

Pet care experience

-Experience- I worked at a large veterinary clinic, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and am comfortable handling a wide range of temperaments and personalities. My experience at the clinic also extends to providing care for cats, birds, and various exotic animals. 🙋‍♂️ Repeat clients receive $5 off on their next booking after reviewing 🐈 We have a designated cat room for our cat boarders away from all dog boarders 👉 Clients will receive a discount on their next booking after the referral of a new client 🎄🕎🦃 Holiday boarders and owners may receive a special holiday surprise during their stay 🏠 We have a large house with a fenced in backyard and separated fenced in pool. Backyard playtime is always supervised and we have plenty of shaded areas including a large gazebo for dogs to hang out under. All dogs will sleep indoors and will eat their meals separated from other dogs.

Jacob and his girlfriend are fantastic pet sitters. I could tell with how well my Harley reacted and responded to them. They both communicated great with us and always sent pictures and are very detailed with each time they came to care for my dog. I will definitely try and use them again when needed.

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.
