Irene's Walking and Sitting Service

Pet care experience

Hello! Thank you for stopping by! I am a responsible animal lover with plenty of experience with animals. I've volunteered at both a well known animal shelter and a cat rescue organization while working as a dog walker and pet sitter. I have always had pets for as long as I can remember and cannot imagine life without animals. I will send constant updates, wipe paws after every walk as long as they will let me, and will try my best to work around any requests from owners. I will provide my best service so you, as an owner can feel reassured that your pet is in the right hands. I hope to meet you and your pet soon!

It was my first time using a dog walker and it gave me great peace of mind knowing Irene was handling my dog so well.Irene was incredibly patient with my dog, she took extra care and time to gain the trust of my very nervous dog before taking her for a walk. She provided me with progress pics and followed my care instructions closely.

Information Irene H. would like to know about your pet

I will want to know how friendly the dog is with other dogs and people, how shy they may be when I first meet them, what they love and/or hate, any habits I should know of, and any possible food allergies.

A typical day

I will follow owner instructions and go to any parks or take routes that your dog is used to! If they are allowed to, they will definitely get some play time with their favorite toys.

I currently work 2 jobs — an office job and a groomer’s assistant so I am only available for house sitting requests. I will most likely be gone morning to evening so can only accept requests for dogs and cats who are okay with being alone during the day.
