Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring sitter who'll make sure your pet is happy
💡Although I give cuddles, love and, most importantly, food before I leave, I travel to Livingston office twice a week (mostly on Mondays and Tuesdays but there's some flexibility), so I am gone all day and I can only look after pets who are okay with that. I work another two days. I'd be happy to pet sit in Livingston if that opportunity presents itself! 💡 I accept last minute requests or changes. I've been looking after pets consistently since 2024 October, with a few long term assignments prior to that. I have a regular desk job, so I only do house sitting, which allows me to spend a lot of quality time with pets. Because of my travelust I am not ready to own pets of my own so I am happy to spend time with yours. I love long walks, so dogs are happy with me, and I am quiet and peaceful, so cats also enjoy my company :) At the moment longer term bookings are better suited for cats (due to having to spend two days in the office), but I am available full time on Wed-Sun. I work from 8am to 4pm, so if I am starting pet sitting on a weekday, I always ask if I can be settled in at the desk by 8 am. About me: I work as data analyst, but in my real life I enjoy long distance walks, road trips around Scotland and learning to dance. I like to stay busy around the city with friends, but just as much I love sitting down with a good book, TV show or making a meal at home. And cuddling with pets, that goes without saying.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I often get clear instructions, and if I have any questions - I look back at them or get in touch if something is unclear. I send pictures every day and include an update, and the owner can easily pinpoint if something is unusual. I want to make sure the owner and pets feel comfortable with me. I take good care not just of the pets, but also the home. I am a quiet, tidy person, and I respect other people's personal space and try to leave no trace behind.

Another amazing experience with Ieva taking care of Mago. Excellent communication, always on time very professional!
Absolutely wonderful! Thrilled to have Leva cat sit. She took such great care of our cats, sent very thorough updates each evening with photos, and genuinely put me at ease while we were away. We can't wait to have her back 😻😻
Super responsive, took very good of our cats even with all of their idiosyncracies
Bud had a great time with Ieva looking after him all day. He had two long walks and lots of cuddles! Got lots of photos to keep me updated.

Schedule
I go to the office in Livingston on Mondays and Tuesdays (there's some flexibility to that), so I'd be happy to pet sit in that area as well. The other 2 days I work from home. The days when I'm in the office are better suited for cats that can be left alone for that long, but I'm available for both dogs and cats during the rest of my time if they would be okay with the fact that I'm working :) I am fairly social, and I like to get out for walks with friends, but I am happy to follow the needs of the pets. My responsibilities always come first and if anything changes - I am transparent about it.
- CatsIeva can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- Let me know if there are any special needs or routines that need to be followed. It's good to know what is normal for the pet, as well it also helps them relax with a new person. I am comfortable with pretty much all types of animals, but don't have much experience with more difficult dogs.
