2. Ioana C.
“I couldn’t be happier with the cat sitting service I received! From the moment I reached out, Ioana was responsive, friendly, and incredibly professional. She took the time to get to know my cat and his routine, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates and pictures, and it was clear that my cat was comfortable and well cared for. Ioana went above and beyond, even making sure my cat’s litter was kept clean. I highly recommend Ioana to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy!”

About: I've been dog sitting and raising animals since I was a child .I've grew up on a farm with lost of live stock and pups .I've bottle fed a few litters in my time even helped a cow give birth once or twice .what sets me apart from most sitters is that I genuinely care about the animals I watch and let out to use the bathroom .treats are a must ! I know I enjoy a treat or two once Ina while .I also have no problems staying over night if a long shift is needed in your life .or if vacation is needed I can also stay in home with the animals. I know and understand sometimes u just need help and need the extra money from work and need a dog sitter and it's also very hard trusting a new person in your home and with your fur babies but I am a very trust worthy young women and have nothing but love to give to your animals. I'm available everyday out of the week , the only times I'm unavailable is for my child's doctor appointments and mine .but open availability notmally As of the moment I cannot board any pups at my home , but first things first when I do a visit or over night dogs will be let out first after some love is given maybe a treat or two for being good pups while their owner is away .after that maybe play a bit of tug of war depending on the animal play time is a must .if they need to be watered and fed I will do that as well .if it's okay with the owners maybe take them for a walk
