Safety, trust & environment

I am located in an apartment. I provide full-time daytime care, overnight stays, drop-ins, or walks at clients’ homes or nearby. When visiting, I respect the clients belongings and know which rooms are accessible during each stay. I’m aware of security cameras. Respectful of bathrooms, showers, Kitchens, Bedrooms. I bring and make my own food. I also discuss how to handle outgoing/incoming mail, trash, and ensure all doors, windows, and garages are locked and secure.

Information Irina B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any medications, special diet, quirks, training issues, etc. that I need to know about. My top priority is keeping them healthy and happy. If your pet is high energy or will need something more than just a walk, I love knowing these ahead of time so I can have those scheduled beforehand.

A typical day

I absolutely love finding ways to have the animals I figure out what activities they love the most! This can look like a long walk, a treat puzzle. Then, switching it up; doing a short walk, their favorite game (fetch, playing with toys) and winding down with a mental enrichment puzzle! On a slower day, a good sunbathe, tv time, favorite toy or snack, and their comfort spot is one of my favorite ways to help them unwind.

Pets

Experienced Dog and Cat Sitter!

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs and cats for almost 12 years, including five years of teaching them to be well-behaved and nearly five years of taking care of big animals. Right now, I have two children; My dog, Kodie and Callie (who’s a calico, of course!) When I’m not home, they head to their grandparents for a vacation, and they always have a blast! Having worked on a farm, I’ve had to keep an eye on up to 10 dogs running around freely, and I’ve got a lot of practice letting them play together and explore while keeping a close watch on what they’re doing. I know my way around giving different medical treatments such as oral, topical, or injections. I’m patient and encouraging with younger pets who are still figuring things out, but I’m also extra gentle and attentive with older pets who might need a little extra help or attention. I make sure to get to know their routines, special habits, personalities, and favorite things so they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home!

Irina provided very timely and detailed messages and notes for the care she was providing for my pets while I was away. I was extremely impressed by her communication. I would hire her again without question.

Irina is very experienced in animals and has taken perfect care of my pups in the past. She has a great energy that they all seem to love as well. Highly Recommend!

Irina has a unique ability to connect all types of animals. She has able to ride horses with different types of saddles as well as being able to ride a horse that nobody else could get close to. She has worked with our three rescue dogs and cats to interact with each other in a loving manner. She helped one of our anti social cats to come more social. She has also helped our sons two pit bulls to walk better on a leash.
