Reliable and responsible
Pet care experience
I’m reliable for you and responsible for your pup! I’ve owned dogs all my life. Before I moved to Berkeley, my childhood dog never went more than a day without a walk (which is probably why he’s still spry and energetic even at 16!). Never met a dog I couldn’t become fast friends with.
Reviews
Ian has been an absolutely fantastic caregiver for my two dogs for the past three years. Since being in Berkeley we have been neighbors and immediately struck us as a kind, caring and thoughtful dog sitter. Ian is someone who is easy to approach in general so despite our hesitancy to have someone other than ourselves watch our babies he made it easy. On top of being super kind he always communicates well with us, considering one of our dogs is older. Our dogs Sunny and Star immediately loved him and so do we! I am sad we won’t have him to ourselves anymore, he’s a gem.
J is a fantastic dog walker. We’ve been neighbors for the past couple of years and he’s watched my dogs with attentiveness and enthusiasm. My two dogs can be quite the handful (2 German Shepherds) and J handles them with ease! Super sweet and caring guy! I would recommend him to any dog owner!
Ian has dog sat my dog before she passed for years. She loved him so much, she would adjust to his house almost immediately. When she struggled to eat, he would adapt and entice her so she could stay strong and healthy, when I wasn’t around. He sent me pictures and updated frequently, which I appreciated greatly. Ian is overall a great, loving person. He is compassionate and attentive, everything you would want in a pet caretaker.

I live in a small apartment with a roommate and my cat, who doesn’t get along well with others. My house is great for the three of us, but we’re at capacity with the three of us!

Availability
I’m currently a full time student at UC Berkeley and a part-time bartender after class. Pet care work, for me, definitely comes in the form of short term gigs. I typically work for family friends when they need to go out of town for a weekend. Because I have a car, I’m able to check in frequently between classes and before a shift, but it helps if your pet has a space they can be trusted to behave in.
