Highlights
Pet care experience
Making animals happy is my jam.
Grew up with dogs and cats. Raised, trained, and explored with my own yellow lab for over a decade. Love bringing joy to canine/feline friends!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Have a cozy house with a large back yard and am close to many great walk options, including Puffers Pond. I like to get a feel for individual animals and adjust care depending on needs. Many friends and family members have praised my calming approach when dealing with pet care/play.
Ratings and reviews
Hiring Ian is one of the best decisions you can make for your pet! Not only does he have a flexible schedule and great availability for last-minute visits, but he also follows directions to the letter, is reliable, and your dog will love him (even our reactive dog loves him). He also sends great updates with amazing photos to gush over. We always feel safe leaving our dog and our home in his hands, whether it’s for a midday walk or an extended vacation.
If you’re looking for someone who will love your pet like their own, Ian is your person. My dog can be reactive and a bit of a handful at times, but Ian handles him with so much patience and kindness. I never stress when my pup is with him because I know he’s safe and cared for. Ian’s dependable, easy to communicate with, and always goes above and beyond. I can’t recommend him enough!
Ian is a compassionate and reliable caregiver and animal lover. He has had family pets his whole life and helped take care of our family dog, sensitive to the dog’s needs and ours. I’ve spent time with Ian’s family and observed him with his own dog, who was well trained and very well cared for – an impressive accomplishment with twin human toddlers making lots of demands on the family! You can rely on Ian to listen carefully to your wishes and build a strong connection with your pet. Highly recommended!
Ian is the biggest dog lover & lovely human!! I have known him for many years and seen him with his/my pups. He has such warmth and empathy for what a pup wants and needs. Any pup in his care is going to get his full attention and treated as a family member. I would trust him any pup of mine.
Ian is an amazing dog dad, and all around human being. He has great energy and makes humans and animals alike feel comfortable. He is patient, dedicated, steadfast and just loves a good dog walk. 10/10 would recommend!
