Pet care experience

Lover of dogs.

When I was 10 I moved with my family and my neighbors had two Rottweilers that terrified me so much that I had to cross the street to walk by their house. One day I went up to my neighbor and asked to meet them and they ended up becoming my best friends in the neighborhood, and I would feed and walk them every-time my neighbors went out of town. Ever since then I have loved dogs no matter how big or scary, and have taken care of pets for my friends and family, from little cocker spaniels to German shepherds and everywhere in between.

Jacob has been very reliable and flexible when I have needed a schedule change. He handles Pepe ( a crazy 6 month old lab mix) well and world with him on leash issues.. Pepe is excited to see him!

Jacob did a good job with my old boy. He took Max to the vet when Max wasn’t feeling well. He stayed in contact throughout Max’s days with him and followed my instructions for Max’s special needs.

Nala was in great hands with Jacob while I was away. Great communication, photos, and reliability.

Jacob did a great job of house sitting for my sweet girl Nala and following her walking/beach routine! He sent lots of photos and videos of her, which is always appreciated. I will 100% ask him to walk and housesit again in the future!

Doggy Day Care • Jun 11, 2025

Jacob and Leilani had a fun day. He’s a sweet, intelligent guy that has great tips and calm energy. I feel that’s exactly what she needed was that perfect match! I was so glad to find Jacob and that he was available within a day. That is a rarity! He had Leilani run as much as she wanted. She’s super happy! Thanks Rover and Jacob! Leilani’s Dad

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am currently in the midst of a job search, so my availability is open to look after and pets for the time being. I have spent a lot of time this year pet/housesitting for my parents and a few of my friends.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently do not have any pets at my home since I have a studio apartment with not a lot of space, but I have reliable transportation and I live close to a few parks, beaches, and woods where I take dogs that I am looking after. I’m good about sticking to scheduled walk and meal times and am a fairly active person so your dog will get plenty of exercise!
