Pet care experience

No more puppy blues!

I’ve owned pets, both cats and dogs, my whole life. Now that I’m living in the city and far from my family’s dogs, I miss the energy that a dog brings to everyday life.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets making sure the home is stocked with food and water, litter is clean, and that the space is friendly. I like to leave some toys around to encourage activity when I’m not present.

Ian has been an amazing caregiver for our 2 dogs and 3 cats. He has helped us out on short notice and went above and beyond. He made sure that each of our pets got the attention and care that they needed and was very communicative with updates and photos of the animals having fun.

Ian was a pleasure to work with. He was punctual two times a day for 3 weeks. The dogs loved him, and he really exercised them for 30 minutes. He also helped me with mail, etc., as I am home bound recovering from a fall. I cannot recommend him more highly.

Ian always does a great job of taking care of our two cats. He is an experienced cat owner himself with two of his own so he understands cats very well. He is very reliable and goes the extra mile to entertain and keep my cats happy with playtime, cuddles, and attentive care to feeding and litterbox cleaning. Highly recommend Ian as your next cat sitter!

Ian is a wonderful pet sitter. He is really communicative and has taken some of our favorite photos of our cat. And I'm sure that if our cat could write his own testimonial for Ian, he would - he loves when Ian comes to visit him and is noticeably in a good mood after hanging out with Ian. After the first time Ian took care of him, our cat waited by the door for Ian at his usual visit time for a week after we got back. Ian makes sure to clean the litter box thoroughly, helps keep our cat in his routine by feeding him on schedule, and takes the time to play with him on every visit. I couldn't recommend him more highly!

Ian is a great pet caregiver who you can trust to be reliable and consistent. He has taken care of my cat on several occasions and I have always returned home to find my furry friend happy and healthy. I highly recommend that you book him for all of your pet care needs!

Ian took care of my cat Klaus when I went on vacation for 8 days. Klaus was very well cared for. Ian came over twice a day to feed Klaus and spend time with him. Klaus is a peculiar cat and needs to spend some time outside every day. Ian accommodated this and followed all my other instructions. I really appreciated that Ian regularly shared pictures and updates. I would absolutely recommend you hire Ian to take care of your pets.
