Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet tech for every pet.
I am an experienced Veterinary Technician who has been nicknamed the cat whisperer. Although cats aren’t my only specialty! I love and care for all animals including; reptiles, insects, fish, and fractious cats or dogs. I am able to medicate your stubborn fur baby’s whether it’s oral or injectable medication, I offer free nail trims if needed while I stay at your home, and I’m able to monitor for any general signs of pain or discomfort and advise if a trip to the Vet is needed. With 5+ years in the Veterinary field and 8+ years of dog walking and pet sitting experience I can promise you your baby(s) will be in good care.

Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
Trust is earned through gentle interactions and like humans all animals have their own personalities. I am experienced in reading animals body language and identifying if something is wrong. I am experienced in approaching and handling anxious dogs and cats. If extra love and patients is needed then that’s what they will get. I am also able to identify choking, coughing, or seizures and know animal safety very well. Your pet will always be safe with me and will never be in a situation where they will be harmed.
Ratings and reviews
Highly recommend! Ikra truly has a passion for animals
Ikra was a fantastic sitter. She took her time answering all my questions during the meet and greet with our cats, and took that extra bit of time to show the cats getting attention and play during her visits.
Ikra was wonderful in taking great care of my two cats, Leo and Lena :). She sent lots of great pictures and they looked quite happy in her company. Thanks Ikra!
Ikra was amazing and so good with our animals. Definitely recommend
Ikra is such a wonderful person and cares about all animals deeply. She is passionate about her work as a veterinary technician and will be able to bring her medical knowledge to take care of pet with special needs. I would trust her to watch my own fur babies any day!
Ikra is such a sweetheart and has a passion for animal care. She so good with all types of kitties and all sizes of large dogs! She has a way with spicy kitties unlike any other and knows how to handle all sort of medical conditions and situations <3
