Dogs Love Me since I Give Love

Pet care experience

Every dog has its own personality and I enjoy meeting every different character and adjust to it accordingly. I love to play and go for walks and dog playgrounds. We have FDR river leadin to the Carl Schartz park and usually I take dogs once a day to the playground and two additional walks around the house and John Jay park. Dogs feel my natural, open and honest open feeling to them. I have had dogs all my life: a beagle female right now; I had two males: collie and basset hound. I have an experience sitting with different breeds and sizes: schnauzers, Chihuahuas, beagles, mix breeds. My husband also likes dogs and likes to play with them and very helpful if I need an additional short walk he helps me too. I work from home and most of the day here. However, I have a son and have to pick him up from school, sometimes drop him to after school activities. So, I may be out up to two hours on some days. I do not like if the dogs barks too much at night, since can not sleep after. I love photography and I would be happy to make photos of your dog during the stay. I want to meed the dog and the owner before any commitments to make sure I can offer the great stay. I want to make sure the leash is safe and dog is trained for safe walks. I do not take dogs who is new to the city and may run away. I like when owners bring all necessary items for stay including the waste bags. P.S. We usually don't take those who is not house trained (may take those who can use pads). Please, be honest about your pup in advance and we can see what we can do!

Once again, Ilona provided wonderful care for our dog Tina. Ilona treats and loves Tina as if she were her own, she takes her on lots of walks and sends us regular updates and pictures. Knowing that Ilona is caring for our dog whilst we were away gave me such peace of mind and makes leaving her that little bit easier. Thanks again Ilona!

We have so many wonderful things to say about Ilona. Ilona watched our 4 month old puppy for a whole day. She is an absolute natural and our puppy loved her. Ilona was extremely flexible with our schedules and the best part was that she provided updates with pictures with how our puppy was doing as the day went on. She was very active with our puppy the whole day as well. When it was time to pick our puppy up he did not want to leave her. She is amazing, thoughtful, and truly pleasant and natural to be around. We will deffinetly continue to use Ilona as our sitter.

A typical day

Every dog is different and we do different things accordingly. Some simply like to run with toys, others cuddle and be hugged and be relaxed. Whatever dogs like I adjust so we both have fun! Here's where we'll take our walks: I live close to Carl Schurz Park and John Jay Park, we have two dogs park for small and big dogs there. Or just walk around a neighborhood. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: Wherever he or she is most comfortable. We welcome snugglers! :)
