Safety, trust & environment

I am respectful of your home and space. I can follow instructions and be attentive to your pet. My girlfriend can take care of our dog Ginger, so there are no reasons why I need to leave while house sitting

Information ian y. would like to know about your pet

Let me know how your dog is around other dogs. How they are on hikes, and if they are allowed treats during the time I spend with them.

A typical day

I like to go on hikes in the back of Manoa as well as walk around Manoa park and the back of the valley. I like to take pictures with the dogs and give them treats when they do good.

Pet care experience

Hi i'm Ian. I am an animal lover, always have been. I also am a life long vegetarian as well as a nature and wildlife photographer. I currently have a medium sized girl poi dog named Ginger who is my best friend. I like to take Ginger on hikes in the back of Manoa as well as to the beach. I have been around large and small dogs and a few cats growing up. I have also helped raise and release monarch butterflies. I love and respect animals, and I enjoy meeting and connecting with new furry friends!

Ian has a very calm demeanor that was well received by my anxious dog. He was accommodating and took some great pictures of our dog with his professional camera. I would recommend him to anyone.

Ian is incredible! He truly takes the time to listen to all directions. My dog loves him and she’s really hesitant about guys. I would highly recommend him 😊

Ian was great with Kaya. Normally it takes her a bit to warm up to someone new. But she took to him from the get go. Ian is also a great photographer. I received awesome updates from him through out the day

Ian has taken care of my pup Amber multiple times and has done an amazing job of handling her eccentricities as well as her medications (there are 12)! He has a natural way with animals and his calm personality is exactly what she needs! Ian is also great at keeping her active and engaged!! Would highly recommend Ian to anyone!!
