Animal nurse/dog sitter :)
Pet care experience
Hello, my name is ilene and I've worked and loved animals for most of my life, Professionally for the past 10 years as a animal nurse. I attended school and received a degree in animal science. I do currently work in a animal hospital i have worked in oncology as well so I'm well trained with caring for pets with special needs. I'm known as being caring, kind, compassionate, trustworthy with my care and love for animals. I can medicate pets if need be as well as care for any pets from puppies/ kittens to seniors , I also spoil them rotten while they're at my house! Pets usually end up loving me! I have my own fur kids who I love dearly and i will love yours just as much as I do them. I do love traveling with the pups and taking them places such as lazy dog, dog parks, hiking etc. I think that when the humans take a vacation the animals deserve one as well! I'm great with pets who have a more temperamental attitudes, the feisty ones :) I also have multiple rooms in my home that allows me to separate fur kids from one another. I also offer bathing, nail trim, anal gland expression, ear cleaning, teeth brushing on the side if you are interested. If you have any questions feel free to contact me! :) thank you
Reviews
For mine and my pups 1st experience, it was wonderful. I was able to enjoy my vacay because I felt at ease about my choice. I will definitely book again with Ilene. She promptly answered my questions and took great care of my ? dog.
Our pup returned home very excited and happy which means he had a great time here. Thank you so much for watching him!
I was excited to leave my dog with a Vet technician who knows how to take care of animals but apparently she has aggressive dogs. I left my dog with them for few days and when I picked him up I noticed bite marks on his head and face. When confronted Ilene about this she said the dog must have scratched it self in the bushes. I don't know how my dog can get puncture wounds. It's not right to have someone so irresponsible taking care of an animal like this.
Ilene took fantastic care of Wally! She was flexible, gave us updates, and Wally looks forward to his next stay!
