Pet care experience

I fetch amazing results.

I grew up in a family that owned dogs all of my life. I also pet sat (both cats and dogs) for many family friends over the years, even helping look over a dog team once when I lived in Alaska. Furthermore, I am capable of going on long walks or short ones, playing fetch or tug of war for extended periods, or just chillin' at home providing all the belly rubs and scratches as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

I am flexible for how will care for your pet in your home. If your pet requires a lot of attention and play time, then I am more than willing to take them to the backyard or nearest park to let them play to their hearts content. Or, if your pet is shy or getting older, I can certainly give them their space.

Our family needed Jacob during a very difficult time. Jacob was kind, prompt, and immediately hit it off with our girls (Bear and Tookie). He was available to provide last minute care for our fur babies and sent updates daily on their well-being. We will definitely utilize Jacob‘s services in the future. He comes highly recommended by all our family members!

Jacob spent the month of May playing with and taking my dog for evening walks. I don’t know who was walking whom, but Jacob was friendly, patient, able to guide my dog through other animal encounters, crowded people situations and bring him home a happy pup. A fine gentleman.

Jacob would make a great pet sitter. He was raised with dogs, cats and rabbits. He is very caring and loving and the animals love him back. He is very conscientious for all animals. I highly recommend him for Rover.

Schedule

I recently just moved to the Vancouver area, and I am seeking full-time employment. Thus, as of right now, my schedule is wide open, which makes me available anytime and any day (even weekends) to take care your pet.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Jacob can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I can administer medications if needed, just let me know. Knowing the activity level of the dog would also be useful. This way I can get a better idea of what to do/where to go if 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.
