Animals love me and I love animals.

Pet care experience

I have been around animals most of my life. I believe an animal should be treated and respected like anyone else in the family. I have been working with animals for over 15 years mostly dogs and horses. I believe the best way to get an animal to understand you and you understand him/her is through love and a little excitement. I’m a very active person my hobbies include many but my favorite are paragliding, soccer, climbing and snowboarding. I have also been riding horses in the Tetons for many years when I was 15 I broke my first horse. I am also owner of a very sweet smart and extremely well trained staffShire. My schedules is pretty open and always willing to work with any special needs for your pet.

Irving watched our two golden retrievers on our home for 6 days, plus a few extra hours due to a change in our travel. I received updates and pictures throughout his time there. Came home to a clean house and happy dogs! Hope to book Irving in the future!

Irving was the best with our sometimes complicated dog! Would absolutely book him again.

Irving did a great job! The dogs well cared for and so was my home. He has good communication and seems to really love animals.

We've used quite a few dog sitters from Rover whenever we go on vacation & honestly, Irving has been the best we've found. Very consistent communication as well as very skilled in dealing with our special needs pup. Our dog, Blue, is deaf & can be a handful when being walked by people he's not familiar with. During our orientation, Irving displayed his extensive experience in dealing with handling & training dogs. We felt very comfortable leaving Blue in his care & it gave us the ability to really enjoy our trip without being worried about Irving having issues handling Blue. He sent pics & updates everyday, assuring us that everything was going well & let us know if he had any questions or needed anything. He even came back to our house to give Blue an extra walk after our flight home was delayed. Would definitely recommend!
