Everybody loves a tired pup!

Pet care experience

I am a recent graduate student and an avid dog lover looking to spend my free time loving as many dogs as possible. I come from a family of dog lovers, and I unfortunately can't visit them very often so I would love to be able to spend some time with yours! I am available for morning runs and afternoon strolls. I would LOVE for you to be able to come home to a tired dog ready to cuddle up for the evening! I do, try, to bring along my furry pal Odie. He is my 8 year old golden retriever Irish Setter mix. He is good with other pets with the right meet and greet to get everyone familiar! If you would prefer a walk alone we can work with that too!

Guava was so comfortable and happy around Ian. They took a long walk and Guava was content the rest of the day.

Ian was great - Zella immediately took to him. Very obvious that he's great with dogs. 10/10

Ian did such a great job with our pets! We recently moved to the area and were anxious to find a pet sitter that could handle our finicky cat and 85 lb german shepherd. Ian seemed to have experience with larger dogs so we went ahead and booked him. He did a great job! I know our GS got lots of long walks while we were away and we didn't have to worry about either of our pets at all! Thanks Ian!

Safety, trust & environment

All dogs are introduced and exercised and engaged as much as I can to make them less anxious and more comfortable with me there. I know how nerve wracking it can be to have a new person take care of your pups so I would love to give you some piece of mind.

Information Ian L. would like to know about your pet

I would certainly like to know if they are comfortable meeting new people and dogs. It is also helpful to know how much exercise they are used to so I don't overdo it.

A typical day

I love to go on hikes, runs, and just generally be outside! My pup and I have explored rock creek park and the surrounding neighborhoods so we would love to take your pup exploring as well!

I can be home in the middle of the day for a short walk as long as the location is within my parameters. I like long morning walks the best but we can be flexible!
