Pet care experience

Devoted to loving care for pets!

With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life. From dogs and cats to chickens, rabbits, and even horses, I understand the love, attention, and trust that animals need. I’m experienced in dog walking, playtime, administering medications, and general health care. Whether it’s a drop-in, a walk, or overnight stay, I treat every pet like family — with patience, compassion, and care you can count on.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m visiting your home for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions you provide and maintain your pet’s routine to help them feel secure and relaxed. I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring it’s left just as I found it. You can trust that your pet will receive loving, attentive care every step of the way.

Iva was amazing! She kept in touch throughout our trip and took great care of our two girls. They can be anxious around new people, but they quickly warmed up to her, were clearly comfortable having her in our home, and were even vying for her attention. Everything was exactly as we left it when we returned, and it was obvious our dogs had been well cared for. We will definitely book with Iva again!

Iva was fantastic! I got plenty of updates and pictures without having to ask. Our girls were happy and obviously loved on while we were gone. We would definitely use Iva again for future travel and rest easy knowing our 2 labs were in amazing hands. We loved her!!

Iva was amazing with Lexi. She was the perfect “dog parent” while we were away.

Iva was awesome! This is the first time leaving my cats with a pet sitter and she really put my mind at ease. She took pic and gave me daily updates. I will definitely be using Iva again.
