Hi I'm Ian! Ever since I was a kid I have always loved animals and taking care of them. I prioritize comfort, happiness, and a consistent routine for every pet; I treat each one as if they were my own. I can provide cat/dog sitting, cat/dog walks, and play time :) (also can sit for Fish) I worked at MidCoast Humane for a short stint of 6 months and cared for many healthy and sick cats in hopes they would find good homes! I can administer pills and injections with cats, but have not had any experience with dogs in the medical field. I also have experience with senior pets and challenging pets. In emergencies, I remain calm, follow pre-discussed plans, and communicate immediately with you. Your number would be on speed dial. This is a great opportunity for me to gain more experience in the animal care field, and to be able to provide animals with the love and support they need. I would love to help you with any of your dogs, cats, or fish!
Ian stepped in at the last minute and offered to dog/house sit for us and we couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker! He was respectful of our dog’s routine, gave him extra walks and attention and even bought him a new toy. The became best buds very quickly! We felt so at ease to be away from home with our dog in Ian’s care. Ian even took the time to send us photo updates. Would highly recommend!
