Pet care experience

Dependable Care While You’re Away

I have hands-on experience caring for pets of different personalities, energy levels and routines! I understand that every animal is unique, and I always take the time to follow care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or playtime preferences. I’m comfortable with daily walks, litter box and yard clean-ups, feeding, administering basic medications and providing plenty of attention and enrichment. I prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands :)

Iona was fantastic. Our dogs looked so happy in the photos she sent us. We will definitely invite her back.

Ilona took great care of our cat and dog over a weekend for two nights. We felt at ease leaving them with her as she was very kind and sweet during our initial meeting, taking the time to learn about the routines and care needs. Our cat is very shy and usually never shows himself with new visitors but he even appeared the first night and I attribute this to Ilona’s calm demeanour. The house was clean and cared for upon our return. Recommend!

We ALL luv Iona ! Outstanding in every way. So grateful to her. My 3 LabiGirls were beautifully looked after. Iona has a magical way with animals. Calm, kind & so trustworthy. When we got home our home was vacuumed & so clean. Wonderful to come home to :0) I’m a little anxious in writing this review as I may not be able to book Iona as she will be so busy…. 🫣 Thank you SO much for all. This service has literally changed our lives. AMAZING 🤩

Schedule

Pet care fits into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around visits, walks and feeding times to make sure pets receive consistent, unrushed care. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits depending on your pet’s needs, and I always build in enough time to give them proper attention rather than rushing in and out.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Iona can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
I like to know your pet’s routine, personality, feeding and care instructions, medical needs and anything that helps them feel comfortable and safe at all times!
