About Ivana
Hello! I'm Ivana and I'm here to help you with the needs of your difficult, dangerous or reactive dogs - or any other dogs too but I know those are easier to find sitters and walkers for.
I grew up with American Akitas and had the pleasure of sharing my life for 13 years with my Akita, Yuri. In classic Akita fashion he was reactive to dogs, had no recall despite persistent training and was always unpredictable. I loved him to bits but he certainly kept me on my toes! This has given me the skills to handle large, difficult dogs with ease. If you're worried about how your dog will go with a new person, don't stress - I gotchu!
I have also cared for my friends' dogs, including Mastiffs, Staffies, Bull Arabs, Rottweilers, Cavoodles, Whippets and Kelpies. No matter your dog's personality, I will ensure they're well looked after and have excellent walks full of sniffs!
As a bonus, I am a hospitality professional so I'm used to long physical hours of work and I'm six foot tall so no matter your dog's size and strength, I'll be able to wrangle them and we'll have fun together.
