Pet care experience
.Hi! My name is Irina. Nice to meet you. I work as a freelance photographer, which gives me a fair amount of free time in between jobs. In 2016, I started offering pet sitting to my neighbors. I enjoyed it so much and fell in love with all the pets I met. I have experience with large, small, and medium dogs. I can take care of single dogs or multiple dogs. I can work with dogs who don't like socializing/aren’t good at it, or with dogs who are more capable of being social. I am familiar with most cities in the East Bay and San Francisco. I have house-sat and pet-sat in the cities of Berkeley, Oakland, San Leandro, San Francisco, Diablo, Kensington, San Rafael, San Jose and other locations. I offer short-term and long-term pet sitting, dog walking, cat feeding, and day-stay services. I have taken a lot of workshops on energy and bodywork and use it on animals if needed. This helps an animal to have more ease in their body and even let go of some of their past abuse and trauma. Several pet owners have mentioned to me that their pets appears calmer and have more ease in general after my energy work on them. I enjoy walks and hikes with dogs and am able to walk them between 2-5 miles per day. I love cats and would be happy to look after your feline companions. I have had them around since my childhood. I wonder what contribution can I be to your pet. Please let me know if you have any questions, I will be happy to speak with you anytime! I don't offer care in my home, I stay at my client's homes only. I rent a car at the moment and unfortunately, there are no pets in a car policy, but I can drive your car if taking the pets in a park. I offer a discount for watching 4 or more dogs. If you are new to a Rover and this is your first booking on Rover, please use my promo code to receive $20 off on your first booking. My Promo Code: IRINAB49027
Reviews

Irina watched my small dog who doesn’t do well with being left alone for a long time while I attended a wedding and my dog was so relaxed and happy with Irina when I came back! Irina is great about sending pictures and updates and amazing with my dog. Thank you Irina!

Irina was fantastic! She stayed at our home with our Frenchie for 2 nights. He was well cared for and I didn't have to worry (especially because it was our first time leaving him)


This is the second time Irina has house/dog sat for us, and the first time with our second dog. She is fantastic, and was so good with our nervous dog. She communicates frequently, including with lovely photos. It’s clear the dogs really love her, and she is great with them. She leaves the house clean, shows up on time, and is just an all around great dog sitter. We have already booked her for next time! Thanks Irina.

Irina helped out enormously when I was stuck due to a blizzard and unable to come home in time. She extended her care an extra night to stay with my cat who gets panic attacks if left alone overnight, and connected me to another sitter to come be with my cat for the rest of the nights till I was able to get back home. She took care of all the details to support the new sitter so I could be assured everything was taken care of. She really came through when we needed her most, and I am so deeply grateful! Highly recommend!
