Safety, trust & environment

When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow all instructions to give the best results possible. I will treat your animals with the up most respect possible as id want someone to treat my dog. Additionally I will try to make your animal feel as safe and loved as possible while his parents are away.

Information Jacob S. would like to know about your pet

Something that I wanna know about your pet ahead of time is any sort of allergies that way I can provide a safe environment for your dog. Also id like to know the dogs preferred walking spots and activities they enjoy.

A typical day

First off if instructions left by the owner I will follow them step for step making sure the animal is comfortable. If there are no clear introductions left for me I will do my best to stimulate the dog this could include walking or playing ball.

Jacob was great and we would still be using him to walk our fur babies if he hadn’t had a car accident. Jacob was very responsive and communicative with messages. We appreciated him coming to do a brief meet and greet before we started the weekly walks. He came across as a thoughtful and responsible young man and wasn’t intimidated by our strong young pittie. We would recommend Jacob and would work with him in the future.

Jacob was on time and very professional. Very easy to work with and followed instructions well. Ladybug had a great time and even got to play catch with Jacob in front of the house. Look forward to having Jacob walk Ladybug again.

Jacob was punctual and flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. Communication was good once the booking was confirmed, and he was willing to accommodate timing changes. I would recommend being very specific about your dogs’ routines, walking boundaries, and expectations upfront to ensure everyone is completely aligned. Overall, pricing was fair and he was reliable.

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.
