Nice to meet you! I am a work from home dog dad to a 1.2 year adorable Sheltie! I am known in my friend and family circle as the dog dad that "gets it". I spend majority of my time training my Sheltie to live her best life, and socializing with many dog owners and dogs all around San Diego. We've trained together with professionals and currently doing agility. Being with and around dogs has been the best blessing of my life and I would like to share that with your four legged best friend! A little on where your best friend's activity areas: · I live around 5 beautiful parks (Pentoja Park, Ruocco Park, Embarcadero Marina Park, Tuna Harbor Park, City Front Terrace Park) within 0.3 miles. I take my Sheltie to play at these parks daily! · Fetch, Frisbee, Bubbles Machine you name it, we can have an awesome pawesome time! · In my apartment home, toys everywhere! · In my apartment home, an outdoor patio with synthetic grass for quick #1/#2 A little on what to expect from me: · Texting photos of your four legged child doing adorable things · Updates on any activity completed or requested, reliable communication always · Dependable, reliable and loving, dogs deserve to live their best life! · Attentive and intuitive - I communicate well with dogs and their body language, I love to see the tails wag! Whether you're headed out of town or just need a helping paw during the workday, I'd love to earn your trust to give your furry companion the love and attention they deserve. We can't wait to welcome your pup into our pack!
Reviews
Ian was so easy to communicate with and so willing to work with us throughout the meet and greet and the Maggie sitting date. I would definitely use Ian again and recommend him to others.
Ian C. is amazing! He watched my dog for a few days and gave him constant attention and activity while keeping me updated with frequent pictures. He is very trustworthy and caring. I would definitely have Ian watch my dog again!

Safety, trust & environment
My apartment home is split 70% dog things 30% human things! I've hidden wires, removed things that can be chewed on, and dog proofed for puppies to adult dogs. Safety is important to me! I always keep lo-fi or dog tv on to keep the home entertaining. Your dog will have their own bed and can be on my furniture. I will also provide you access to my dog cam if you would like to take a peek at what they may be doing! I am happy with the way dogs interact in my home!

Information Ian C. would like to know about your pet
Let me know anything that you would need me to know. Such as vaccine status, preferences, allergies, and general knowledge to be aware of. I am experienced with most dogs, and take time to learn about dogs daily, but every dog is unique!
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs mentally and physically! I live around 5 beautiful parks (Pentoja Park, Ruocco Park, Embarcadero Marina Park, Tuna Harbor Park, City Front Terrace Park) within 0.3 miles. I take my Sheltie to play at these parks daily, and have respectful dog owners/enthusiasts all around! Our activities will contain fetch, frisbees, or toy of choice. My favorite toy I bring out is the bubble machine that dogs chase!

Availability
I work from home between 7am to 3pm daily, primarily handling scheduled meetings. I am able to spend time for pet care in between meetings and adhere to schedules such as morning walks, feeding, water bowl refresh, afternoon walks, snacks, and playing in between these meetings. Having the nearest park within 0.2 miles allows me to get a good walk in anytime needed! I usually go to the nearby parks to play frisbee and do agility training until the sunsets before dinner time. After dinner usually playing more with the dogs until it's time for the final walk of the day and sleep.
