Professional, loving, reliable.

Pet care experience

I love all animals! More than happy to run, play on the ground or cuddle with your dogs, cats, goats, birds or what have you. Growing up dogs and cats were my only siblings; having terriers, labs, pitbulls, and shepherds, and now have a german shepherd and two cats. I also have worked in avian rehabilitation for 8 years and have extensive knowledge of bird behavior and health. I would love to give your animals love when you have to be at work or out of town. I am more than happy to do overnight care and companionship in your home, and am available for morning, afternoon and evening walks. I hope you, your animals, and I can all become the best of friends! A little more about me: I graduated from UC Davis with a BAS and after a few years working in youth services, along with avian rehabilitation, I have decided to go back to school. Not only will my caring for your animals and home fill my heart with more furry love, but help pay for my Masters in Social Work as well. Thank you for considering me for the care of your furry family members 💕

Ian was amazing checking in on all of our pets/animals. We would book her again in a heartbeat! Super communicative and responsible, with such a kind and considerate disposition.

Ian was wonderful with our dog, Luna. Our dog can be somewhat challenging and is slow to warm up to new people, and Ian was very accommodating. She was very clear in her communication and put us at ease when we were away. Would highly recommend!

We had Ian stay at our house to watch our dog and cat for a week while on vacation. She did a great job communicating with us with sending updates on how it was going as this was the first time we had to leave our pets with someone they did not know. They warmed up to her pretty quick and everything went well.
