Your pet is your family

Pet care experience

I can’t wait to meet you and your pet(s)! I started dog-sitting for friends, family and neighbors from a young age. In my college years I loved my housemates staffy like my own! I once worked at a general vet clinic and had a family cat for 12+ years. I have some experience with exotics & small mammals too! Please don’t hesitate to reach out :)

My 9 year-old lab mix had a wonderful time with Ivy. When I picked AJ up from her week-long stay, she was happy to see me, but I could tell she was perfectly at ease and happy by Ivy's side. Ivy provided a daily update and cute pup pictures. You could tell she really got to know AJ based on the spot on comments she shared about AJ's behaviors, likes and dislikes. I will absolutely book AJ's future stays with Ivy.

Ivy was great with Albus! She shared a bunch of pictures and updates during his stay so we felt comfortable the whole time. She was also very thorough prior to the stay to make sure she had all of Albus’ needs in mind. Will definitely use her again in the future.

Ivy is wonderful! I didn't adopt the easiest old grouch (needs meds, has a bit of an attitude, etc.), but Ivy was extremely patient and open to all his needs and adjustments. I know I can ramble on and overshare about my dog, but Ivy listened to it all and used the knowledge well. She’s also very communicative, which I greatly appreciate! I definitely would book her again, and so should you!

Information Ivy Y. would like to know about your pet

What is your pets general temper? Does your pet have any medical needs, sensitive areas on the body, triggers in the house or out? What are some words your pet responds well to/recognizes? Allergies of any kind? Play behavior/favorite activities? The more info the better!! Tell me everything to better personalize the sitting :)

A typical day

I’d love to accommodate the stay to your preference. I plan to take one client at a time to focus on your pet(s). Transparency allows me to be a better caretaker for your pet!
