Jake was absolutely wonderful! He took great care of my cat, Franky, sending regular updates and photos, and I came home to a very happy and well-cared-for kitty. Thanks again Jake!

Jake went above and beyond for our senior cat, Rufus! He made sure all Rufus’ needs were met and sent super detailed updates. Rufus adored Jake and we will definitely be using him again!

I could not recommend Jake more! He was great with my little Bengal. He always followed instructions and ensured Evie was taken care of. Any time Jake watches her, I come home to a happy kitty who hasn't acted out one bit. She adores him. 10/10
