Information Ilya S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time if your pet has any special needs or quirks I should know about. It would also be good to know how your pet gets along with other dogs and if they are spayed/neutered in case we run into other dogs. Ideally, I like to meet-up beforehand so I can get to know your pet before we book.

A typical day

I am currently living in a spacious studio with lots of room to move around. In addition to playtime indoors, for dogs I like to try and get at good amount of outside time as well. This of course depends on the animal's individual needs, and I try and stick to whatever is closest to what they are used to on a normal day.

Ilya S.'s Neighborhood

Kind & attentive friend to all 🐩🐱

Pet care experience

EN/FR | LGBTQ+ friendly Prices are negotiable on a case-by-case basis. From 4 month old puppies to 18 year old cats I've tended to pets with a wide range of needs since the age of 8. I've administered medicine, given baths, and participated in the raising and training of my own dog growing up. I work remotely on my own schedule, so my hours are very flexible (with enough notice)! You can rest assured that great love and care will be put into time spent with your pet, and with that an understanding of the importance of each of their individual needs and personalities.

Ilya a fait un super job pour s'occuper de mes 2 chiens et a fait preuve de confiance quand une situation inattendue s'est présentée. Merci!

Great dog sitter :) I really appreciated the thoughtful updates and photos—it was so reassuring to see Liam happy and relaxed. When I came back, he was in great spirits, and I could tell he’d been well looked after. I’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you for treating Liam like family ❤️

Ilya watched our 1 year old husky for two weeks while we were on vacation and was a perfect dog sitter! We received pics and updates every day, which made us feel so reassured that our dog was happy and in good hands. As a young husky, our dog needs a lot of exercise, mental stimulation, and firm boundaries, and Ilya was great at following our normal routine and giving her what she needs, and also seemed so patient and loving with our dog. And Ilya also went above and beyond in making sure our home was clean when we got back, which we were very grateful for. We definitely recommend Ilya for pet sitting and we will absolutely book again!
