Pet care experience

Loved & safe — fenced yard and park

I truly love animals, and animals naturally love me back. I live in a spacious home with a large, secure backyard — everything is fully fenced with a tall gate, so your pup will always be safe. I work from home and stay here all day, which means pets are never left alone and always get plenty of attention. Our neighborhood is very quiet, with cul-de-sac streets and no through traffic, making walks calm and stress-free. Just ten steps from my home there is a big, safe park where many friendly dogs love to play. Pets in my care enjoy plenty of space indoors and outdoors, peaceful surroundings, and most importantly — lots of love, comfort, and attention every single day.

We had such a great experience with Ilona! She took wonderful care of Sophie and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was easy, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It was clear that Sophie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Ilona and would happily have her watch Sophie again!

Ilona did a wonderful job with our dogs! She was kind and gracious, even though they destroyed some things at her house. She is a great sitter and I highly recommend her!

Schedule

I work from home full-time, so I am always around to give your pets attention, care, and love throughout the entire day. This makes it easy for me to keep a consistent routine with feeding, walks, and playtime. Your pup will never be left alone and will always feel safe and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard and a tall gate to keep pets safe at all times. Our neighborhood is quiet, with cul-de-sac streets and no through traffic, which makes it perfect for calm walks. Just steps away there is a large safe park where many friendly dogs play. Pets enjoy both indoor comfort and outdoor freedom, always in a safe and loving environment.

A typical day

A typical day with me is all about balance between fun, activity, and comfort. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise — we’ll go for long walks around my quiet neighborhood, explore the nearby park, and play games that keep them active and happy. I also love to include mental stimulation like training practice, sniff games, or puzzle toys. After playtime, your pup will enjoy relaxation in my spacious home and fenced backyard, where they can safely run and rest.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medical conditions, or behavior quirks so I can make their stay as comfortable as possible. I’d like to know if your pup gets along with other dogs, their feeding schedule, and their usual energy level. This helps me plan the right activities and make sure they feel at home. I welcome all breeds, but it’s important for me to know if your dog has any fears (like fireworks, loud noises, or separation anxiety) so I can provide extra care
