I work from home, which allows me to provide pet care around the clock—weekdays and weekends. Your dog will always be engaged with toys, treats, and activities to keep them happy and occupied. Plus, my wife and I care for the dogs together, ensuring they always receive the attention and supervision they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

I have three well-trained, healthy dogs who love making new friends—so your pup will always have great company! All of my dogs are neutered, fully vaccinated, and very well-behaved, which helps create a safe, fun, and balanced environment during your dog’s stay. We also have a big backyard and a large swimming pool, so if your pup enjoys splashing around, they can enjoy a refreshing swim break too! Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or pool time, your dog will feel right at home here and be cared for like family.

Information Ifan F. would like to know about your pet

Ask about pets’ habits, diets, health needs, medications, triggers, favorite toys, and routines. Understand their temperament, walking preferences, play style, potty breaks, allergies, training level, emergency contacts, and vet information.

A typical day

A typical day with me is structured, active, and filled with care. From morning cuddles and a healthy breakfast to park walks, fetch, and midday rest, your dog gets the perfect balance of exercise and relaxation. I handle leash training, clean-ups, feeding schedules, and finish the day with evening strolls, playtime, and a comfortable wind-down. For the summer months, I also have a pool available for dogs who enjoy swimming—adding an extra layer of fun and exercise during their stay.

Ifan was a fantastic dog sitter! He was very responsive and took great care of Roro. Roro had a wonderful time with him. I booked at the last minute, and Ifan responded immediately, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Ifan to others and will happily book with him again!

Such a wonderful experience! We had a last minute cancellation in our booking for our vacation and Ifan was a true hero accepting a last minute request, providing super timely communication, and genuinely just loving our crazy pups while we were away. We could not have asked for a better fit and “holiday” for them or us! Will be back again!!!

I haven’t used a dog sitter in almost over a year and Ifan was wonderful at sending photos/videos and updating regularly how my boy was doing. His setup for the dogs is great inside with a nice backyard for them to play! Will definitely be using Ifan again!

Ifan did a good job of caring for my dogs while I was out of town. He sent me updates and pictures throughout the week. It was nice that he was available on shorter notice (around 2 weeks). I would have him watch my dogs again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
