Pet care experience

Cat lover

I grew up in a home with cats and dogs. I am very familiar with how to take of them, provide attention to them, feed and house them. I love all animals and they seem to also love me. I have been known to be the "Cat Whisperer". I have taken care of my cats my whole life, my family bred the Scottish Fold cat breed when I was younger, and I've always had cats as pets. I do not currently own any pets because I lost my 2 cats of over 15 years to cancer earlier this year.

Jake took great care of our cat Barbas while we were away. My cat quickly warmed up to him and adaptation was smooth. When we arrived to pick him up, my cat was sunbathing by the window and looked happy and relaxed. We will definitely book again with Jake next time!

Cleo was well taken care of with Jake, this was our first time using the rover experience and was not sure how it would be but Jake was fantastic answered questions and responded questions quickly to help ensure our booking and sent a picture with an update to help us know she was doing well at pick up she was calm and happy. I would definitely recommend Jake for your fur baby.

Jake was kind enough to look after my elderly cat on very short notice! He kept me updated on how he was behaving, and I rest assured he was left in very good hands! Highly recommend!
