As always, the dogs returned from Ian’s house happy and healthy. He is great with large dogs.

Another happy stay for Henry and Piper. Not having to worry about them is the best.

Our doggos always have a good time with Ian. He is very comfortable with the care of large dogs and I don’t have to worry about my dogs escaping or jumping his fence.

We had a great experience with Ian. He was very accommodating and loved my boys as his own. While away, I received frequent updates with photos. This helped us be at ease knowing our boys were in good hands. Will definitely return.

Pets

A typical day

My house is situated in a nice development, so walks usually consist of going around the block and (hopefully) meeting some new pupper friends. The backyard is also decently-sized, so there’s plenty of space to run around with my dogs. They’re very inclusive of new friends!

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Ian can host up to 3 pets per night
I have no breed preferences. The only thing I ask is that your dog be socialized and dog-friendly, as mine are very excitable when meeting new friends
