Highlights
Pet care experience
TLC for Little Loving Companions
I’ve always been passionate about caring for animals, and I understand what it means to entrust your pet to someone else. Pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. As the devoted owner of a Shih Tzu, I specialize in caring for smaller breeds. I understand their unique needs, from their delicate nature to their often “big” personalities, and I know how important it is to find a sitter you can truly trust with your pet. I’ve become the go-to sitter for friends and family because they know I prioritize safety, consistency, and genuine affection. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a fun play session, or simply providing a calm and comforting presence for a more anxious pup, I tailor my care to each dog’s individual personality and needs.

Ratings and reviews
Aloo had so much fun! He did great with them and seemed very happy. Thanks for taking care of our little one :) Will definitely use again in the future

Irene and her family were absolutely wonderful with Chantilly while I was away. I felt completely at ease throughout my trip thanks to the frequent updates they provided, which were so thoughtful. It was clear they took great care of her, and it was heartening to see that their family dog, Kenzie, and Chantilly became total besties by the end of the stay. I highly recommend Irene if you’re looking for peace of mind and a loving environment for your pet while you’re away.

She did an amazing job with Aloo! He wanted to go back into her house when I picked him up. He made friends with her dog and she ensured that he was safe, happy and comfortable. Thank you so much

Irene and family took great care of Walter! I’d be very happy to have them watch him again.

Schedule
I can cater to your pet throughout the day with walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and supervision as needed. I aim to keep their routine consistent as possible. Since my husband is also available to step in and help, you can have peace of mind knowing that someone will always be right there to watch over your pet.

Safety, trust & environment
I would love the opportunity to provide your pet with the same attention, patience, and care that I give my own. Your pet will be cared for in my home in a safe, calm, and comfortable environment, with frequent updates so owners feel confident while they're away.

A typical day
I like assessing each dog’s energy level to tailor our day. It makes trips to the nearby park or neighborhood walks so much more rewarding for them.
