Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong Animal Lover & Caregiver
I grew up surrounded by animals of all kinds; Cats, dogs, fish, birds, ferrets, and more. Caring for each of them at different stages of life. I now have 2 dogs (1 adopted), and 2 cats (rescued) of my own, and they continue to bring me great joy. I know how difficult it can be to be away from your pets and leave them in someone else’s care. That’s why I treat every animal with the same patience, respect, and attention I give my own. Your pets will be safe, loved, and well cared for. You can count on me.

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize safety, calm, and consistency in every environment. I will follow your established routines as closely as possible to help pets feel secure and comfortable. I’m attentive to feeding instructions, medications, litter or potty schedules, and any behavioral or medical needs. I keep spaces clean, secure, and pet safe, making sure doors, windows, and outdoor areas are properly closed and monitored. I respect each animal’s personality and boundaries, especially with cats and more sensitive pets, allowing them to approach at their own pace. Communication is important to me. I provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your home and your pets are treated with care and respect. You can count on me to keep them safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Ian was wonderful - communicative, nice, and fully endearing. Will be booking again!
Ian was great! He went above and beyond, and Angus loved him! Will definitely be booking again in the future.
Ian does such a great job with my puppy! Thanks again Ian!!
Ian was soo helpful when we left short notice for the weekend. He spent quality play time with our 9 year old kitty, Lola. She loves human time and he filled that cup for her while we couldn’t. He took care of her automatic feeder in the mornings and spent time outside and inside with her playing. This was exactly what she needed. We are so glad we found you on rover, Ian! Thank you so much for all your help. Lola already can’t wait for next time :)
Ian did a great job watching my energetic 5 month old puppy while I was working! thanks so much Ian!
Ian was an amazing pet sitter for my dog and cat! He came by several times throughout the week and provided thorough notes and photos of his visits. His attention to detail and love on my pets was a huge relief since I don’t usually have new people come by the house. Also, Ian’s communication was fast and friendly. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for help with their pets!
