About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15! I’ve had pets all my life growing up though! My neighbors, friends, and family, have relied on me to feed, walk, play, and give cuddles to their pups! I currently am working part time as I just started a new job, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and get them some exercise! My home has a fenced in dog park that i’m sure your dog would love to run around in and get some energy out! If your dog is better on a leash and loves to walk and sniff around your area I am happy to do that as well! I just want to be able to give your pup a safe and happy visit 😊
“I felt very confident when she was enthusiastic about setting up a quick meet and greet. She completed the walk despite a minor collar failure, and I appreciated her transparency with the situation. Professional, polite, and wonderful to work with!”

About: Hi all I’m Kelcy ! I love the company of all animals! Fun fact I am CPR and BLS certified, and I am a Certified Medical Assistant! Summer time is approaching so i am now free mostly everyday! mornings and noon time are perfect for me and my schedule at the moment!! I am a big sister so i’m always taking care of the young ones! I care for pets in anyway shape or form I can to ensure their comfortable!

About: I've had all types of animals growing up. From small critters to dogs. Currently own 2 cats named Sasha and Coco, chickens and have 3 freshwater fish tanks. I've house/pet sit for friends over the years. I have pretty good flexibility everyday for short visits > 2 hours. I have two young children in school so depending on time frame one might have to accompany me but if not needed I can work around it. My cats are pretty self sufficient as cats are but they are fed every morning and evening and get treats. They are indoor cats aged 7 and 8. I feed fish daily and do water changes once a week as Maintenance. Chickens are a bit more daily maintenance with cleaning out coop everyday and filling water and feeder but it's rewarding (especially with getting eggs)
“Dependable, kind and most importantly Blue loves her. Our situation at the time meant we didn’t meet her first. Trusted the app and now trust Ixia with our most cherished family member. Thank you”

“Anna has been walking my pup for a few weeks now. She came in on an emergency fill in basis and I was glad to ask her to stay on full time. Reliable and thorough with being on time and filling me in on all the details of the walk. She has a great eye with the camera too lol, I always look forward to my daily pictures. Who doesn't feel awful walking out the door in the morning to those eyes looking up at you, feels better when you know someone who cares will see them during the day.”
