Is there any word I can use in this circumstance:

Someone needs help, you help them, but every time you see them, you remind them of the favor you've done them.

I mean is there an adjective I can use for the guy who repeatedly remind you of the favor they've done to you?

    Can't think of a single word but depending on the context there are numerous idiomatic expressions to convey that: hold it over him, lord it over him, hark back to it etc etc

It might be that they did the original favour begrudgingly, so you could perhaps describe them that way - begrudging.

Someone who likes to boast about the 'good' they've done may be called a virtue signaller.

When someone is still expecting praise or gratitude for something done a long time ago, we sometimes say they are 'still dining out' on it.
