About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with over five years of experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and even the occasional exotic pet (most recently, an axolotl!). I have two dogs and a cat of my own, though they’re currently living out of state—so I’m really missing the daily joy of having pets around. I'm a responsible and reliable professional with a full-time job (8 AM – 4 PM), so I’m available for care in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends. I’m experienced with senior pets, administering oral medications, and providing extra care for animals with specific needs. I always aim to follow your instructions closely and make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, playtime, or special care—I'm here to help and treat your pet like family. I’m a full-time professional with a work schedule from 8 AM to 4 PM, which means I’m available for pet care in the early mornings, evenings, and on weekends. I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, check-ins, walks, or cuddle time outside of those work hours. If you're planning a trip or need consistent care during non-work hours, I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to help. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I create a calm, nurturing environment where animals feel secure, respected, and loved. In your home, I follow your routines closely and maintain a clean, low-stress environment so your pet feels safe while you're away. I value building trust—with both pets and their people—so I always communicate clearly and provide regular updates for your peace of mind. While my home does not have a fenced-in yard, your dog will get plenty of leashed walks, fresh air, and attention. I make sure they get the exercise, care, and affection they need, all while staying safe and secure. Your pet’s well-being is everything to me, and I care for them as if they were my own.
About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I do have a preteen daughter (10) that will be with me over the weekends, please let me know ahead of time if I need to make arrangements. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. Neighborhood only has one entrance for cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is a open space in the middle of the neighborhood.

“Ivanis is so very thoughtful and caring for our little girl. She is dependable and trustworthy. This is the second time we have had Ivanis watch our girl and she didn’t disappoint. I will ONLY ask Ivanis when I’m heading out of town. She is the best person for the job!”
“NO room for improvement! The Morgan family provided the same care that we give our dog with more play time! Piper had a huge yard and many dog friends to play with during her stay! She got plenty of attention from the Morgans and didn't have to use a crate. They sent us several pictures and videos throughout her stay which made our vacation much more enjoyable too!”
About: We’ve been pet parents and pet sitters for over 13 years, and caring for animals has always been a big part of our lives. We know how important it is to have peace of mind when you’re away from your furry family members—that’s why we treat every pet as if they were our own. What makes us stand out is the personalized care we provide. Every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, and we make it our priority to get to know them and keep them comfortable. Whether that means plenty of playtime, long walks, quiet cuddle sessions, or just sticking to their daily habits, we adapt to what makes them happiest. Safety is always at the top of our list. We create a secure, loving environment where pets feel at ease, while also paying close attention to their health and well-being. From giving medications and keeping feeding schedules consistent to making sure water bowls are always full and clean, we take the little details seriously. We also love to make the time fun! Pets in our care get lots of adventures—walks, games, and enrichment activities that keep them active and engaged. At the same time, we know the value of comfort, so they’ll also have plenty of rest and affection. For us, pet sitting isn’t just about the basics—it’s about building trust, creating happy memories, and making sure you feel completely confident while you’re away. Our schedule is flexible, and since we work remotely half the week, we’re able to adapt easily to your pet’s needs. Pet care is built into our daily routine, so your furry friend always comes first. Morning: We start the day with feeding, fresh water, and a walk or play in the yard to get energy out and set a positive tone. Midday: Playtime in the yard or a walk, along with companionship and attention to keep them happy while you’re away. Evening: Walk, feeding, and plenty of family time, whether that’s outdoor play, lounging inside, or simply relaxing together. Throughout the Day: We keep spaces clean, monitor activities for safety, and provide regular love and companionship. We care for pets with love and attention—making sure they’re well-fed, walked, and never short on companionship. Our fenced backyard gives them a safe place to run, play, and explore, and we’re always nearby to keep an eye on their adventures. We keep their spaces clean, cozy, and secure so they can feel relaxed, happy, and right at home while they’re with us.
