Experienced Pet Sitter

**I've had past clients warn me that my profile is coming up saying I don't catsit, this is not true I'm happy/enjoy doing it** Love cats. Always have since I was a kid. Look after others' furry ones because finding competent cover can be wretched. I've had ones of my own and would probably have some if I lived in a bigger place. Happy to help with other animals too - have looked after dogs, parrots, lizards, snakes, spiders, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, rats and even piranha. I would include goldfish too but never actually looked after them, have fed tropical fish though while setting up the auto feeder for a cat I was looking after though ;)

Thanks Jake for looking after Betsi again! This was the longest we've left her for so I was a little anxious, but I needn't have been a she was fine. She obviously feels comfortable witty him. Jake was also very understanding when there were unexpected road closures in the main route out of Bristol resulting in a delay of an hour returning, so we were really grateful for that. Thanks again Jake and we'd highly recommend!

Betsi enjoyed the company of Jake again last night whilst her humans left her for a night out (how dare we?!). He's great with her, she's comfortable with him, and we trust him having used him several times before. Great guy who genuinely cares about animals, and the importance in life in having pink hair, of which Betsi approves! Thanks Jake and we look forward to next time!

Jake was great, didn’t have to worry about the cats the whole time I was away. Fed and medicated on time as requested and kept me updated with messages and pictures

Jake was perfect. We met before hand so he could see what the chemistry was like with Sparky (my terrier). During the dog-sitting Jake sent me pictures and updates to give me peace of mind (it was my first time using a dog sitter). He took Sparky out as promised and left my house neat and tidy. Sparky was very happy when I got home and I have already booked Jake for 2 more dog-sitting dates.

Great, thank you so much! Jake looked after our cats this weekend. Was really great with meeting us before etc! Was flexible with feeding times too! Thank you again!

We used Jake for the first time to look after our poodle Betsi on our home a couple of nights ago whilst we went to a concert. He was great! Betsi was really happy when we came back and seemed very happy to have been with Jake. Betsi is my Assistance Dog and as such can have separation anxiety as she's not used to being away from me, but she seemed to cope fine in Jake's capable hands! Jake came for a meet & greet first, and was great at keeping us updated with pics etc during the evening which was really reassuring for me. Thanks Jake! We'll definitely be using you again, and I'd highly recommend if you have a cat or dog that needs sitting in your home.
