Pet care experience

Trusted Cat & Dog Lover

I have several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, I had my own dog, a poodle, which taught me the responsibilities of daily pet care such as feeding, walking, grooming, and giving them the attention and exercise they need. Currently, I have two cats at home, so I am very familiar with their routines, including feeding, litter box cleaning, grooming, and playtime. Caring for my own pets has helped me understand how important patience, consistency, and a calm environment are for animals. In addition, I have experience looking after cats and dogs through another pet-sitting app, where I provided reliable care through drop-in visits and walks. I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment for every pet I care for. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are in reliable and responsible hands. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking services, ensuring pets receive proper care, attention, and companionship while their owners are away. I do not provide boarding services. I also have prior experience caring for both cats and dogs through another pet-sitting app, which has helped me build strong skills in understanding different pet personalities and maintaining their routines in a comfortable and secure environment.

Irene was very patient with my cat Jinx who was a little stressed being left alone for the first time in a new flat. She shared pictures, videos and updates with every visit and was a great communicator

We’ve had Irene watch our cats Gigi and Willow 3 times now and she’s been great each time. She shares the best updates, is so easy to communicate with and the cats really like her. I would highly recommend

I can not recommend this lady enough she looked after my 2 cats so well and they absolutely fell in love with her. She kept in touch everyday and sent photos making me feel at ease. Definitely 5 stars 🌟 and I will be using her in the future.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my current routine as I am currently taking a career break, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available throughout the day for drop-in visits and dog walks, ensuring pets receive the attention, care, and consistency they need. With the extra time in my schedule, I am able to plan visits carefully and make sure each pet is looked after properly without rushing. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away.
