I treat your pup as my own

Pet care experience

Originally from Ukraine, I’ve been always a dog lover and I constantly try to surround myself with dogs. Spending time with pups makes me very happy and positive! I have been taking care of dogs for the past 11 years, had they been my dogs or my friends dogs. I have a calming effect so dogs around me usually feel relaxed and comfortable. I’ve always enjoyed walking dogs as it’s such a great exercise for the both of us. My favorite thing to do is going out to paddle board or kayak with my dog Sam who is a black lab. Both her and I love water, so spending time at the river or lake is just something you can’t beat. I don’t have Sam anymore, since I moved to the city and have a busier lifestyle here... but she’s living her best life in a farm, running around with horses and accompanying my family there.

Illia dog sat for our two larger dogs at our house. He was able to successfully manage their leash reactivity and got along well with them. He took some great pictures. The dogs seemed to have a good time. Thanks!

Illia did an awesome job looking after my dog (Pip). I can't thank him enough for the quality of care provided. I had some reservations with having a stranger dog sit for four straight days, but Illia regularly sent status updates and pictures which took care of all my concerns, and he proved to be super competent and trustworthy. I'll definitely be requesting him as Pip's sitter in the future (schedule permitting), and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dog sitter/walker.

I was so lucky to have found Illia to watch my Winnie over the long holiday weekend. He was easy to communicate with and shared some really great pictures of her living her best doggie life. I definitely recommend him to everyone!
