Dog Whisperer

Pet care experience

Born animal lover, I enjoy doing everything with my dogs including playing fetch, hiking and tricks but can be strict and dominant when necessary. I work at home, my “coworkers” are my hounds and any canine friends that are visiting. I have been working with dogs and other animals ever since I can remember. As a kid I was raised caring for multiple animals on a farm and have experienced good and bad tempered dogs. I am able to assess and manage any situation that arises and make safety my number one priority both for people and pets. Currently my girlfriend Victoria and I have two beautiful dogs, Arbor and Bruce, that we love dearly and are well mannered with almost every dog we cross paths with.

Many people claim to love dogs but few have the connection with our fur friends that Ian does. He is patient and kind and every dog he meets can see that. He really cares for dogs and they really trust him.

Ian is an exceptional caregiver for animals. He is patient and soft spoken as my golden is quite the “character” and listened to Ian throughout the walk. I highly recommend Ian.

If it's a walk we will go as far as we can around the neighborhood in the amount of time we have or just small walks for smaller/older dogs. For boarding or daycare, dogs are my coworkers :) We will take multiple breaks, get pets all day and play with other dogs or rest until mom/dad picks them up.

Information Ian I. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know of any behavior issues and if they are good around other dogs. If staying at my house, I have 4 dogs so need to know any temperaments and/or possessions like food or toys.

A typical day

On my walks, we'll be going to the park, going around sniffing areas and other dogs, and treats and depending on the dog: dog parks, fetch, tricks, and saying hi to friends!
