A vacation home for your furry baby

Pet care experience

As a Pet Lover with over 16 years of experience taking care of my own two furry companions, as well as offering pet care services for family and friends, I understand the responsibility and dedication required to ensure a happy and healthy pet. Throughout the years, I have developed a keen understanding of different breeds, temperaments, and personalities, allowing me to provide tailored care to suit each pet's unique needs. From feeding and exercise routines to administering their bathing routines and providing plenty of love and affection, I take pride in providing the highest level of care to all pets entrusted to me. My passion for animals and commitment to their well-being make me the perfect choice for anyone seeking a reliable, compassionate pet caregiver.

Ipsa was beyond fantastic with Roxy as she got multiple daily walks and had a great time. I will not hesitate to book again as Roxy received excellent care. I received lots of great updates with pictures and Roxy had a great time snuggling 10/10.

Ipsa is a sweet and kind human. I felt safe leaving my dog with her and she communicated everyday on how he was doing. Will definitely book her again

Took care of my dog over the holidays and he was well taken care of. She sent me updates and reached out when she had concerns. She clearly cares for the pets she is taking care of, will definitely use again!

Safety, trust & environment

As a pet caregiver, I understand that safety is of the utmost importance when it comes to looking after someone else's furry family member. That's why I take every precaution to ensure that my house is a safe and secure environment for pets under my care. I have pet-proofed my home, removing any potentially hazardous objects or substances and securing any loose wires or cords. I also make sure that all doors and windows are securely locked and that any outdoor areas are safely enclosed. In addition to providing a safe environment, I am also committed to giving pets under my care the attention and care they need to thrive. Working from home gives me the flexibility to be available for pets whenever they need me. I make it a priority to take pets under my care on regular walks or as per their specific requirements. Overall, my home is a welcoming and safe space where pets can feel comfortable and well-cared for. With plenty of love, attention, and exercise, I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care to all pets entrusted to me.

Information Ipsa S. would like to know about your pet

As a pet caregiver, it is important to gather as much information as possible about a dog ahead of time to ensure that I can provide the best possible care for them. Some of the most important information to know about a dog ahead of time includes: Temperament: Knowing a dog's temperament is crucial to ensure that I can provide the appropriate level of care and attention. For example, if a dog is nervous or anxious, I may need to provide extra reassurance and calmness to help them feel safe and secure. Medical history: Understanding a dog's medical history, including any past injuries or illnesses, is important for their safety and well-being. It helps me to identify any potential issues or concerns that may require special attention. Diet and feeding schedule: Knowing a dog's diet and feeding schedule is important to ensure that I provide the right food and amount of food at the right times. It also helps me to identify any dietary restrictions or preferences. Exercise and activity level: Understanding a dog's exercise and activity level helps me to tailor their exercise routine to suit their individual needs and preferences. Training and behavioral quirks: Knowing a dog's training and behavioral quirks can help me to provide appropriate training and behavior management techniques that cater to their individual needs. Overall, gathering information ahead of time helps me to provide tailored care and attention to each dog I watch, ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being.

A typical day

As a pet caregiver, I love to engage with the dogs I watch in fun and stimulating activities that cater to their individual personalities and preferences. Some of the activities I may do with the dogs include playing fetch, practicing basic obedience commands, providing puzzle toys for mental stimulation, and engaging in interactive playtime sessions. When it comes to walks, I like to mix up the route and terrain to keep things interesting for the dogs. I may take them on a neighborhood stroll, explore local parks and trails, or take them to dog-friendly beaches or hiking areas. If the dog has a favorite spot, I am more than happy to make that a regular part of our routine. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a fun and engaging experience for the dogs I watch, while also prioritizing their safety and well-being. Whether it's playing in the backyard, going for a walk, or engaging in interactive playtime sessions.

Working from home gives me the unique advantage of being able to provide ample attention and care to my clients' pets. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I understand the importance of exercise and outdoor time for pets' physical and mental well-being. That's why I make it a point to take the pets under my care on at least two short and two long walks per day, or as per their specific requirements. Whether it's a leisurely stroll or an energetic run, I tailor the walk to the pet's individual needs and preferences. With no commute time or rigid office hours to worry about, I have the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. My work-from-home situation allows me to be available for my clients' pets whenever they need me, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and exercise they need to thrive.
