“On our meet and greet, Jake was very professional and calm focusing solely on bonding with our dog. Jake asked us alot of questions regarding the day to day routine and was ok feeding Storm raw food after he walked us through Saltwell park. Jake went above and beyond sending photos, videos and voice messages on Whatsapp during Storms stay. Jake brough Storm out in his car and to dog a cafe. Storm is a large breed, American Akita, who is particular of strangers but accepted Jake straight away. He has stayed twice now. Jake was very understanding that Storm has to be the only pet during his stay and accommodated without issue.”
