Highlights
Pet care experience
Meet your pet's new best friend!
Dogs: I've been a dog borrower via the BorrowMyDoggy website since 2021 but I have been around dogs for all 30+ years of my life. I have experience with a variety of breeds, including senior pets, puppies, and rescue dogs with behavioural issues. I'm very comfortable with basic training and grooming if necessary. As a pet carer, I believe approaching every pet and their family with curiosity and patience ensures I can provide the best tailored care as possible, and create trust from the moment we meet. Cats: While I have less experience with cats, I am comfortable around them and able to provide basic care like feeding, cleaning the litter box, play/company and some grooming. For more specific needs, further instructions may be needed.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Before taking on any pet care at the owner's house, I prefer to organise a visit to their home to familiarise myself with the pets normal environment and ask thorough questions about their care needs and personality, medical issues, play etc. This also makes the pet more comfortable with having me, as a new person, in their environment. I'm also happy to arrange walks or 1 to 1 meetings so the owner(s) can get to know me and see me interact with their pet. Communication and trust are key! My home is a 1 bedroom flat which is not very spacious for pets, but I live alone, the building is quiet and there are many walking routes and parks nearby. I prefer to petsit from the owners home but my home is also available for shorter stays. For dog boarding & doggy day care, please let me know if your dog tends to bark a lot as this may disturb my neighbours.
Ratings and reviews
absolutely delighted with how much my nervous suspicious dog loves Iina - completely recommend her trustworthy, common sense approach and reliable scheduling. thanks Iina
thank you so much - Mr. Vlad is happy and cared for
vlad was so happy to see you 💙💙
Lina was absolutely fantastic with Speedy and Gama. From the moment we left them with her, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She was extremely professional, responsive, and kept us regularly updated throughout their stay. It was clear how well cared for and happy they were, which meant so much to us. We’d 100% use Lina again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her! 🐾❤️
Lina provided good for our two cats . She left the house clean and tidy . There was a small communication issue but Lina resolved it quickly
thanks Iina - vlad was a mega happy boy on my return 💙
