About: Been in Arlington since 2017 and despite having not owned since with family, have a lot of experience walking and sitting for friends and family. V much want to hang out with your pup, super down for walks, and sitting if theres a need! Moreso into this for my own personal emotional regulation (has a full-time job), so time/rates absolutely negotiable. Not really sure whats considered experience here, so will put amount of time I've lived with. I'd do this for less than $10 a walk if I could. I have a full-time, in office job, so I am much more suited for walks and longer hangs than I really am overnight sitting. My current apt building doesnt allow for pets, so if sitting were a thing, it'd have to be at yours. That said, I would take your pet out and they'd do things with me, my SO, and very likely also my friends. Happy to abide by your rules with le pup, would just need a rundown or list of things/actions you keep so as to try not to change much for them.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life. I grew up with both small and large dogs with all kinds of different needs. Truly, I understand that each pet has its own unique needs which I’m patient and willing to understand. As an adult I’ve owned/lived with 3 small dogs (pug, 2 cavalier King Charles spaniels) and a cat so I’m fully capable of taking care of multiple animals at once. I’ve cared for both my cavaliers from puppy through their seniors years including one being in a wheel chair his last year of life so I have experience with dogs in all years of their life. My cat was adopted as kitten so also familiar with cats during all years of life. Over the years I’ve done pet sitting and walked dogs for friends and neighbors in addition to my own pets. My work schedule is flexible with a blend of in person and remote work so we can discuss a schedule that fits your pets needs. Safety, trust, and respect are extremely important to me. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, keep pets on their normal routine, and maintain a calm, safe environment. I treat every home with care and respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I believe clear communication builds trust, so I provide regular updates and photos and am always available if you need to reach me. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet and your home are in good hands.

Jennifer was an excellent cat sitter for Melvin. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Melvin seemed super comfortable and well cared for the entire time, and it was clear she was great with him. Communication was smooth, she was reliable, and I had no complaints at all. I would definitely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at a dog grooming salon, where I regularly fed, bathed, and walked dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m also a lifelong dog owner, so I truly understand the love, care, and attention pups need every day. Whether it’s helping a shy dog feel safe or keeping an energetic one happily moving, I’ve got the experience and heart to meet their needs. I'm currently in graduate school so I have flexibility to care for each pet. I have breaks between classes, which means I can easily fit in walks, check-ins, or drop-in visits. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to their usual routines so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules, give fresh water, go on regular walks, and make time for play and affection. I also keep the space tidy and make sure pets are safe, calm, and happy while their owners are away.

This was my second booking with Iryna. When I came back from my previous trip, I noticed my cat was a lot calmer and loving than coming back from trips with other sitters, so there was no doubt about using her services again. She has great communication and documents everything really well. I got daily pictures and video’s of Iryna playing with and caring for Yuki. She was also flexible to come back to us, with a last minute booking, both in location and time. I would absolutely use her services again and I absolutely recommend her for any other cat parents :) thanks Iryna for being there !
