Pet care experience
Your 🐶 Always Safe & Loved Here 🐾
I have 6 years of Rover experience and 30+ years of caring for dogs and other pets. I love dogs and I hope I get to keep doing this forever! ❤️ I’ll send lots of updates and photos of your fur baby’s silly faces, snuggles, actions shots, and all the fun little moments that make their day. Have a peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy, well cared for, safe, loved, and spoiled to the fullest while you’re away. 😊👍

Ratings and reviews
Great communication and sent nice set of photos each day! Our dog loved staying with Ivan and he got to socialize with a few other similar sized small dogs during his stay which was great! Only minor comment is the photos he sent seemed to come through as somewhat low resolution (although this may have just been the Rover app) but overall no complaints!
Ivan took really great care of Pillow! He was able to feed her all her meds, brush her tooth and give her eyedrops. We also did a meet and greet before boarding and she did great with the other dogs. He has a big backyard for the dogs to roam around too. He also sent lots of pictures throughout her stay which I really appreciated. Looking forward to boarding Pillow again soon!
Ivan took wonderful care of Remy as always. I appreciate all the updates and I can see how much fun Remy is having, plus Ivan knows Remy’s quirks and preferences which is so great especially for a senior dog. Thank you!
Ivan is very responsive and respectful about your concerns. Our girl is 15 and we lost her brother last year so it’s been really hard for all of us. We travel for work and it’s been extremely hard for Daisy to be in new environments without her brother. Ivan was responsive, sent photos, let us knew if she ate, had water, went potty. He also gave us enough time for meet and greets at his house. Not many sitters allowed us to do that. Ivan also seems like a kind and friendly human.
As this was our first time leaving our newly rescued dog, we were rather nervous. We chose Ivan because he offered consistent monitoring, freedom to explore outside and inside, and doggie playmates of similar size. The stay was even better than we could have hoped for and we were grateful for the daily pictures and regular communication. Our Sally was very well loved while we were gone.
Ivan is the best with Baxter! Fortunately for us he took great care of him while he was stuck in the 'cone of shame' - something not just any sitter could do. Thank you Ivan!

Schedule
Available any day, anytime-happy to fit your schedule! Your 🐶 is never left alone or overlooked because I’m right there with them all day - playing, rolling around, relaxing, and having fun together. At night, they happily cuddle on the bed, couch, or wherever they choose to snooze (or in their crate if crate training is preferred by the owner).
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your 🐕 will be in a loving home away from home in a very safe, nature-filled neighborhood where they can relax indoors and play to their heart’s content outside in two large fenced areas, each with its own real grass field. There’s plenty of space for zoomies, nature-powered brain workouts, sniffing adventures, sunbathing sessions, and shady chill spots for well-earned breaks in between all the fun, and most importantly, scenic bathroom spots! 😆
A typical day
Aside from daily playtime indoors and outdoors at home, we also go on walks around different neighborhoods. I’ll try to teach new tricks to the best of my ability… or maybe they’re the ones training me to give them treats 😅. And sometimes, we even go on field trips to new places to explore and hang out! I keep my pack small and intentional, only taking in a limited number of pups at a time based on compatibility, so every pup gets plenty of attention, care, and supervision… no pup gets left out! 😇
