I can speak to dogs

Pet care experience

Ok, so I don't really "speak" to dogs, but I've always had an amazing connection with them. Never met one that didn't end up loving me after a few minutes, if not immediately. Don't believe me, ask my rescue dogs! Riley is a 7 year old Treeing Walker Coonhound/Shepherd mix who absolutely loves other dogs (probably even more than me), and Diva & Chloe are a bonded senior pair that we rescued over 2 years ago. I've raised Riley since she was a 3 week old puppy, as well as having pets as a part of my life since I was 7 years old. (now 26) We have plenty of places to walk around my town home, as well as having Whetstone Lake Park immediately next door to our community. With a few miles worth of trail and a beautiful lake to see (and smell), how can you beat that? :) Stop wasting your time reading this, and come bring your furry friend to me so you can have a night on the town or go enjoy that overnight business trip, without worry! Thank you for reading!

I had a pleasant experience with Ian. It was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous leaving my baby, but Ian was always responsive when I reached out to him for updates. He always made sure to send a picture as well. I would definitely recommend him!

We had such a great experience with Ian! He accepted a very last minute booking on a holiday and was so easy-going with time changes the day of drop off. Our puppy looked happy in the update photo that we received and came home exhausted. We will definitely be using Ian in the future!

Barkley had a great time with Ian who was attentive and caring in his care. Barkley for some unknown reason decided he wanted to have a few accidents during his first night but I an assured me that they were not a big deal. After that he let me know that Barkley was back to his normal self and was doing extremely well. Thanks Ian for everything.
