I have known Irina for over 10 years, in that time I have seen how diligently and lovingly she takes care of her own cats and dogs, putting their needs and well-being above all else and how she has made sure they are always taken care of. In addition to her own pets, I have also seen her devotedly caring for her grandmother's dogs and cats. Once she passed away, she made sure they all found loving homes (some with her and her mother, others with friends and family, since they were several), and were fully tended to in the meantime. Finally, I have not only received her in my home many times, where she has always acting lovingly towards my 6 cats and dogs, but she has even been kind enough to stay over at my house for over a week at a time to care for them, seeing to their meals, walks, medicines, and, of course, their pampering.

Irina took care of my three dogs and three cats for a week. During that time, she stayed at my house and was responsible for their walks, medications, and feeding. Irina kept in constant contact with me throughout her stay and proved to be a trustworthy and responsible person.

I honestly can't recommend Irina enough as a pet sitter. She's watched my dog and cat a bunch of times when I've been out of town, and she's just totally reliable and easy to trust. She's especially amazing with older pets who need medication, handling everything with total patience. You can just tell she genuinely loves animals as dogs and cats are always instantly drawn to her. Plus, she's the real deal when it comes to animal rescue. She's owned pets and saved strays for over 15 years, and I've seen her dedication firsthand. Once, we were in traffic and saw someone throw a kitten out of a car window. Irina didn't hesitate for a second... she jumped out to stop traffic, grabbed the terrified kitten from under our car, took it straight to the vet, and fostered it until she found it a permanent home. If you need someone who is responsible, kind, and will love your pets like her own, Irina is the absolute best.
