Highlights
Pet care experience
Hey! I'm your new sitter!
Hello! My name is Ivy. I'm a university student looking for work. I am responsible and obsessed with dogs. Happy to watch cats as well. I have experience watching, walking, and caring for both. I'm missing my dog so much. She recently fell very sick and had to be put down. I need my doggie fix while I'm at University. I'm American and have lived all over the world with my family in the US Foreign Service. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I'm open to staying at your place for up to one week. Same goes for walks or potty breaks/ play time. I can also walk or use the bikes. I'm happy to meet the needs of your pet - take them out and about with me, or sit in your house. You make the rules. I will be aware of your pet's disposition - if they're not social or good with other pets, we can structure our time accordingly. You make the rules clear, and I'll follow them.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I've owned a dog myself and always made sure they were safe and never got out, so I understand how important trust is. I provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and playtime, and will always follow your pet's routine and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Ivy was great and very attentive to Ozzie! She responded to a very last minute request due to our usual sitter unexpectedly being unable to walk him, and was able to make sure Ozzie had the best walk. She also took great pictures of him!
I would definitely recommend Ivy as a dog sitter. She genuinely loves dogs and is really passionate about looking after them properly. She has taken care of my two Golden Retrievers and has always been amazing with them. She is responsible, attentive and makes sure they are happy, comfortable and well looked after. They both absolutely love her and are always excited to see her. I trust Ivy completely with my dogs and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
I truly cannot recommend Ivy enough. It's clear that she genuinely just loves spending time with dogs, and I think that's the best quality you could ask for in a dog sitter. She was responsible, punctual, and always polite, with prompt communication throughout. She sent plenty of photos of my sweet pup, gave lots of cuddles, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She's also an incredibly impressive young woman with aspirations of working in animal welfare, particularly in a shelter setting, so she's building experience in a field she's clearly passionate about.
I couldn’t be happier with the care Ivy Hishmeh provided for my red nose Pitbull. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and treated my dog like family from the moment we met. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me real peace of mind, and it was obvious my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Red nose Pitbulls can require someone who is confident and understands dogs, and Ivy exceeded my expectations. I came home to a relaxed, healthy, and happy pup. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Ivy, for taking such great care of my dog!
I’ve known Ivy for a long time, and I can’t recommend her highly enough as a pet sitter. She is incredibly caring, responsible, and attentive, and I know she would treat every pet as if they were her own. Ivy is patient, trustworthy, and genuinely loves animals, I always felt completely comfortable leaving my pet in her care. She is also reliable, communicative, and thoughtful, which makes her someone you can truly depend on. Any pet parent would be lucky to have Ivy looking after their furry family member!
Ivy is a very responsible dog walker. She handles pups with the utmost care because she truly loves them. If lots of cuddles are good for you, they’ll suit Ivy just fine. Ivy is a university student looking for extra work and there would be no better dog walker than Ivy for your most special family member. I highly recommend her.
