Jason looked after our kittens when we went to Ireland for a long weekend and we couldn’t have been happier with the service he provided!
From the minute he met them it was obvious he had a lot of experience with cats. Our kittens warmed to him straight away and it immediately made us feel very at ease with leaving them in his care.
Jason went above and beyond our expectations, spending additional time to that which we had agreed and providing very comprehensive summaries for each visit. We didn’t feel concerned or worried at any stage and will definitely be back in touch with him should we go away again.
Many thanks for making the whole experience completely painless!

Jason has been walking our dog Leny three times a week since the beginning of the year and we couldn't be more grateful for the way he looks after him. It's so reassuring to know that Leny is getting a good walk and is in good hands as we know that Jason takes the time to get to know the dogs and reassure them. He's taken a real shine to Jason which is a feat in itself as Len is very shy and scared of most strangers. Jason frequently takes Leny out for 2 or 3 hours and he clearly looks forward to his walks. He's made friends with a few other dogs that Jason walks and it's made him far more relaxed with other dogs.
We couldn't recommend Jason highly enough!

| When we decided to get a dog earlier this year we realized we'd need someone to walk her during the day. What we didn't realize was how lucky we were to be near Jason, and what a relief and comfort it would be to have him walk our dog. From the minute Perdita met him they hit it off and, given the tough time she'd had before we homed her, it was reassuring to know that Jason's experience would mean she was in safe hands. It also meant we could benefit from his advice. Having had Perdita for about six months now, we can't imagine life without her - and it would be impossible to keep on looking after her properly without Jason. |

Jason started looking after our cat when we were away on holiday last year. We have used him several times since then and have always been pleased. He goes above and beyond to make us feel like our cat is well taken care of. We can tell by her temperament when we return that she hasn’t felt abandoned because she gets so much attention on Jason’s visits. Also we get daily texts/emails for most of our holidays; although during busy periods we get a log of our cat’s activities left for us when we get back instead.
Jason is quite easy to deal with and has been very accommodating. He even looked after our cat while we were having renovations done and it wasn’t very comfortable to spend time in our house.
He is definitely an animal lover and has offered us good insight in our decision as to whether to get another pet. We highly recommend Jason and GCOB.  |

As a newcomer to London, I wasn't sure who to turn to to look after my foster kitten when I went away on a last-minute holiday. I found Jason's ad on Gumtree and contacted him, and knew upon first meeting that he is a very trustworthy, responsible person who truly loves animals. I didn't worry at all while I was away about having a "stranger" in my house, looking after my kitten, because I knew that Jason would do a great job.
When I came home I found a detailed account of every day that Jason spent with Tilly, and realized that he had spent an amazing amount of time with her, socializing her and playing with her (which is exactly what she needed, being a semi-feral kitten). In fact, she was less timid when I returned than when I left, which I have Jason to thank for!
Tilly is not the easiest kitty to look after but Jason was very patient and did an absolutely superb job with her (even having to deal with some unfortunate messes that she made, which he did without complaint), and I will definitely be calling on him again next time I go away!
Thanks Jason!  |

We also found Jason through Gumtree, He looked after our cat for us whilst we went on a two week holiday. There wasn't a single day where I didn't get an update from Jason on how Compton was getting on, which was very reassuring as this was our first time going away. He really took the time to play with Compton and I truely believe he really cares about animals. I couldn't recommend Jason enough, he was brilliant and I will be using him again in the future!  |

When we moved into the area from overseas, we were a little taken aback by the number of walkers there were in the area and the choice that we faced!
Having emailed and spoken to dozens on the phone, we whittled the list down to meet a few face to face. We had almost made our mind up and then our 'baby' took a real shine to Jason in the first meeting, which made our mind up immediately.
Having now settled into the area, it annoys me a lot when I see walkers with eight dogs on their arms, which they just cannot control. It's clearly not just a "get rich quick" scheme for Jason, and it's clearly obvious he genuinely cares for the animals he looks after too - which is rare trait in the dog walking business in my opinion. I also spoke to Battersea Dogs home where Jason volunteers, and they too provided a fantastic reference.
Overall, we cannot recommend Jason highly enough! |

Found Jason through gumtree and arranged at fairly short notice for him to visit our cat for 4 days over Christmas.
The man is a true gentleman, passionate about his work and very thorough - we came back to a diary of his stay with our cat detailing his observations and actions. much appreciated.
Will not hesitate to use Jason again - competitive rates just add to the brilliant package! |

| I was very happy with Jason. He took very good care of my cat Simmy spending extra time with him and bringing him special food when he was a bit poorly. |

| I was very pleased with the pet-sitting service I recently received from Jason when I needed someone to look after my two bunny rabbits whilst I was on holiday. I came back to find a clean and tidy hutch and Jason had obviously taken care to keep all the supplies in the kitchen neat and tidy too - to the extent he had swept up the loose hay in the kitchen. I will definitely be using him again. |

Jason's dog walking service has been a god send. Very practical, flexible and a confident handler, he has supported us in helping Skippy become more easy going around other dogs and his behaviour has improved as a result, and continues to improve week by week. The lines of communication are always open and we are more than happy with how things are going.
Thanks again! from Skip, Mad and Ben |
