Pet care experience

My home is your pet’s home 🐾💛

My home is your pet’s home 🫶🏻 Safe and trusted environment 💛 I have been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. As a dedicated dog and cat owner myself, I understand that your pet is family. I am a very active person who loves long walks, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. I’m also highly organized and comfortable following specific feeding or medication schedules to keep your pup's routine consistent.

Ivana was great with my cats as usual, and sent some really adorable photos of them while I was away!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 06, 2026

Marcel was well taken care of with Ivana! If you want a tired puppy this is definitely the place. Ivana was consistent with keeping me posted on how Marcel was doing throughout the day. Very accommodating with time frame as well! Definitely leaving a tip for that helped me out so much! Has spent repeated days with her and everytime was exhausted! Her dog was friendly with our puppy as well, helped with socializing him!

We could not be happier with the care Ivana provided for our golden doodle, Gigi, during our week away. From the moment we connected, Ivana was incredibly responsive and caring which gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated every day with photos and videos, and it was clear that Gigi was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. Ivana treated Gigi like her own, and we truly appreciated the care and thoughtfulness she showed throughout the entire stay. Ivana provided 10/10 care, and we would absolutely trust her with Gigi again. So happy we have found her. Thank you, Ivana! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Schedule

I currently work in healthcare administration during the week, which means my weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care! I am available for full-time boarding and house sitting from Friday evening through Sunday night. Because I am a student and work a consistent schedule, I am very reliable and punctual with my check-ins and walk times. Your pup will have my full attention during their stay!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a pet-friendly environment in San Mateo where your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves making new friends, making my home a great 'social' spot for your pup. I am very comfortable with 'Meet & Greets' to ensure everyone gets along. I maintain a clean, safe space and am happy to accommodate crate training or any specific home boundaries you have in place.
