Pet care experience
Hello there! I’m Ikona, and my passion for animals runs deep. I’m not just a pet sitter; I’m a devoted caregiver who understands the importance of treating your furry family members like they’re a part of my own family. What Sets Me Apart: • My experience isn’t just about the number of years; it’s about the quality of care. I’ve grown up with multiple dogs, and they were always cherished as integral family members. • I take pride in providing a safe and nurturing environment where your pets will feel as important and loved as they do in your care. • Special skills? I’ve got them covered. Whether it’s training puppies, providing extra care for seniors, or simply making sure they have enough treats (it’s our little secret!), I’m here to meet and exceed their unique needs. A Commitment to Your Pets: • When your pets are under my care, they’ll have more than just treats and water; they’ll have an abundance of space to run and play, ensuring their happiness and well-being. • I don’t consider them as “just pets”; they are family members. That’s the same level of love and attention I’ll provide. So, you can rest assured that your furry family members will have their needs met and exceeded when they spend time with me. Mahalo and A Hui Hou! (Thank you and until we meet again!) 🌺🐾
Reviews
Ikona looked after Rocky (large American pitbull) for 52 nights. While his dad was out at sea fishing for work. From the moment we met Ikona we were so happy that we found him and knew Rocky was in good hands. His love and kindness for dogs is very apparent. He looked after Rocky like one of his own. Would 100% recommend Ikona and not hesitate to have him look after Rocky in the future should the need arise.
Kona was a great sitter. Bandit had a great time playing with Kona’s dogs and he sent lots of pictures of Bandit. Will definitely ask Kona to take care of Bandit again.
Ikona was amazing with Athena! She has separation anxiety and was so happy with plenty of attention and company. Easy to work with and kept me updated all the time with pictures and messages, I felt completely confident leaving Athena with him and will definitely go to him first for any pup overnight stays in the future!
Ikona was attentive and caring. Updated me frequently with photos of Yaya’s well being. Service was above and beyond what I expected. Thanks for taking great care of my young pup!
