Persistence, Attention, Love

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs since I was a single-digit aged kid and I instantly loved them. That part was the easy part, but as I grew older, I learned very important skills to teach dogs and their humans alike. Every dog is different and I understand that. I will give them a proper introduction, full attention and of course, give them love in the way that they're comfortable with! I will ensure safety to the best of my ability and keep you updated throughout the day. For the felines, it was later in life that I learned the dynamics of our kitty friends. Though I’ve never owned a cat, I’ve taken care of many and grew to learn a gentle patience, pick up on their cues and a playtime (if they’re into that!). I’ve taken care of super affectionate cats, cats who need a little more alone time, and playful cats, so I’d say I have a wide range of experience! Unfortunately, my partner is allergic to cat dander so I only accept drop-in visits and house sitting at the client’s home.

Ilene was was a great sitter for Porky! Gave us great updates and was super responsive. I'll definitely rebook Ilene for future sitting needs for Porky.

Ilene is a communicative and flexible dog sitter! She sent picture updates, and let us change the drop off and pick up times because of our travel schedule. I felt more than comfortable leaving my dog with her, and I plan to book her again in the future!

Ilene was quick to respond and head over to take care of my dog after I had an issue with another rover to help me out. Very reliable and would recommend get to anyone

Ilene was wonderful! Copper stayed with her and her husband for two nights and they kept us updated with plenty of pictures of all their walks and adventures. They took great care of him and we’re so sweet—we’ll absolutely be reaching out to them next time we need a dog sitter! ?

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs both mentally and physically - or - if you have a lower energy dog, I’m always up for just chillen around the house and an easy stroll around the neighborhood. I live in a park where they can check out all the smells and I also have a fenced in back yard where we can play fetch if they’re into that.

My husband and I mostly work from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend quality time with your pup! I’ll be the main caretaker but I always think it’s nice to have an extra person around for caretaking, and my husband is experienced with new dogs coming into the house as I’ve brought in plenty to the house.
