Pet care experience

I have had dogs since I was a child. Love playing and cuddling with them and taking them out for walks. Will love your dog as my own.

Yvonne was awesome with kimchi. They bonded right away. She was able to discipline her and was eating more. She updated me almost everyday with pictures and videos. I strongly recommend her.

Emrick has stayed with Ivonne and her family twice now and she has been an absolute angel with him. Even though he has a great disposition he is not the easiest dog to take care of because he’s pretty hyper and always wants to play. She has done an absolutely fabulous job with him and has taken wonderful care of him. I absolutely recommend her without any reservations.

1st I wish Rover would wait a few days before asking for a review because I would like time to observe my baby before commenting. Now enough about Rover. Ivonne lives in Illinois, I do not. I don't remember why I picked her. I know or thought it would be close where I frequent the area and also she accepted cats as well as dogs. I started my search MONTHS before the actual need. She requested a meeting and I got bummed because I don't live there and explained my life. And thank her for her time. NEXT.... she continued to text and I offered as much info on my baby as I could. Mostly the bad because well my cat is mean. She just likes to be left alone. I'm not new to Rover. I used Rover for a dog I had some years back. Once before in a pinched I called a friend to keep my cat. It was actually last year. Now when I walked in the room where my cat was in at Ivonne's house she was lying out in open. The cat also named cat began yelling at me but she was out and about 1st star. My friends home I had to keep calling her as she cried and was under a bed. The reason I wanted to wait a few days is because in 4 years I've had my cat besides home she has only been 2 other people and I found it very interesting her behavior when I picked her up from Ivonnes and much so afterwards 2nd star. Friends house although I love my cat a little she just wouldn't leave by my side for DAYYYYSSSSS.... Ivonne's place I pick her up from she isn't hiding, she loves me a little, I take her out her crate she is "ok" 5 million stars. She is not attached to my hip like the other sitter. Also her litter box and everything I had ordered and shipped to her about a month before was cleaned and ppacked. No comment about my friend. I didn't know my cat would be so different bbecause the person who watched her before he was a friend. 2 things One- she won't be going back to the friend's house 2 if Ivonne has openings I will definitely book her again. I'm jealous and kinda wanted the love and kisses but what expense?? She must have been well taken care of. And isn't that what we all want? Our 4 legged babies well taken care of? You can't love on mine she won't let you touch her.

Ivonne took amazing care of our dog for a few weeks while we were out of the country. She was easy to communicate with, and welcomed our dog into her home and treated her like her own. We received daily pics and videos over the stay, and Ivonne kept us up to date on how she was settling in. I highly recommend Ivonne, and will definitely be leaving our dog with her in the future.
