Max took care of our elderly cat Mimi for two weeks in December – and was simply brilliant in every way. His calm and friendly manner made him an instant hit with Mimi. She’s usually standoffish with new people, but was sitting on Max’s lap from the moment we left and followed him everywhere for two weeks. He was great at getting her to eat her special food (a tricky job) and brushed and played with her all the time. Max went to a huge effort to send a daily cat journal so we could see what our girl was up to. He is a fantastic communicator and was very accommodating around our departure and return times. We found the house sparkling clean with a fresh bed — and he even left us goodies, including his own freshly-baked pastries! We 100% recommend Max to anyone looking for the perfect cat sitter and would love to have him back again any time.
