Safety, trust & environment

I will be very active and enthusiastic with your dog to make sure they have a good experience being walked. I will also be sure to respect peoples property and clean up any messes.

Information Jake G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or requirements I can handle just about anything. And I’m more than happy to help with anything else around the house like watering plants etc…

A typical day

A typical day would just be sticking to the routine you give me and making sure everything gets done! And then after that I’ll relax.

IMPORTANT: no prices you see here are final! Reach out to me and we can work out pricing based on your specific needs. 🙏 I have many years in house sitting experience at this point. I rarely use rover anymore, for most of my gigs are by word of mouth. Hence the lack of reviews. I love animals and I know how to care for them properly!

Jake took great care of our dogs, was reliable, showed up on time, and kept in contact with us. I'd use him again.

Jake was really great with our giant pup. He was communicative and timely. Upon returning our pup seemed super happy and well cared for.

Jake has been walking my elderly dog Barney for a couple of months now. He is always prompt, and polite. Most importantly Barney loves him and acts like a puppy again ever time he sees Jake! I hoghly recommend him.

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.
