Highlights
Pet care experience
Exclusive Private Pet Care
I love all animals and they feel that. I love nature and we go on walks, hikes and boat rides. I have experience with pets at all stages of life and have over 30 years experience caring for animals. I don't smoke or party. I'm a professional and you can trust me in your home. I am equipped with dog belts, dog mats, dog life jackets, cat furniture and a Canada Paddle Level 1 certification. I live on a large property on a lake. If your animal isn't feeling well under my care, there is no effort too large to save him/her. I can administer medication, insulin, inhalers and SQ fluids. I have recently lost my beloved pet and have therefore now opened to boarding and house-sitting. I offer private boarding-- only one family at a time so that they have the full run of the house and can feel like they're in their own home here. I understand loneliness and your pet's need for companionship. I fall in love with all the animals that I take care of and treat them as my own.

Ratings and reviews
Thank you so much Ilana! You and Teddy became the best of friends. Loved all the photos and video each day. Wonderful experience for everyone!
10/10 Ilana is absolutely perfect in my eyes when it comes to a pet sitter. She’s responsive, attentive to their schedule and needs, and excellent with communication. She also sends wonderful pictures of the animals which is so appreciated. I’ve used her many times now and will continue to have her back!
Ilana is a superb dog sitter. She is very accommodating. She sent lots of pics. She took such great care of our dog, Maggie. She took Maggie for 2-3 good walks a day and played ball with her. Maggie got extra treats and 5 star treatment. Highly recommend Ilana! She went above and beyond. We will book with her again.
I am so picky with who watches my babies, and honestly I would trust my kids with Llana! That’s how great she is. Recommend her always.
Ilana took great care of my cat Saz. It was my first experience hiring a sitter and was delighted with the care, trustworthiness and communication from Ilana. I anticipate calling on her again.
Lana was wonderful with our kitties. You can tell she cares deeply about animals. I will hire her every time we go away now.

Schedule
I will find out your needs and only take on the job if I can exceed your request. I will let you know upfront. I bond with all animals and love them as my own.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I know that pets spend the day waiting for their humans to come home. That's why I always spend extra time at my client's homes and on walks.
A typical day
We go on trails, outings, excursions, boat rides. My service includes picking up your doggy and driving to and from a trail where the walk or boat ride then begins. No charge for the pick up and drop-off or driving time.
Prices include all fees.
