Dog lover, animal rescuer and nurse

Pet care experience

I have been a dog lover my entire life. I have been a nurse for 24 years and involved with animal rescue for the last 10 years. I have fostered over 300 dogs. I have cared for dogs of all ages ,from bottle fed puppies to senior dogs on medications. I have cared for and nurtured , abused, puppy mill , homeless and sick dogs. I had my dog for 18 years . Now I love and care for every dog like they were my own.

I’m so blessed to have Ivette care for our sweet pup Bentley. She is good with communicating and sending photos. C. Pelican

I am so happy we found Ivette. She genuinely cares for the pets in her care and it shows in everything she does. She provided frequent updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Monty had everything he needed and was well looked after and loved. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Ivette was so accommodating and took the most wonderful care of our dog. He is somewhat anxious and very energetic and she kept him happy and stimulated the whole time while sending us adorable photos and updates. We can’t thank her enough!
