Safety, trust & environment

When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making their routine feel as normal and comforting as possible. During visits, I ensure fresh water is available, meals are given as instructed, and any medications are administered if needed. I always take time for play, enrichment, and cuddles (if the pet enjoys that) — not just the basics. For dog walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes, paying attention to weather conditions, and sticking to familiar or approved walking routes. I also send regular updates with photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away.

Information Irina I. would like to know about your pet

1. Health and Medical History: Any allergies, medical conditions, medications, or special dietary needs. 2. Behaviour and Temperament: How they interact with other animals, people, and children. Any specific behaviors to watch for or training cues they respond to. 3. Exercise and Activity Level: How much exercise they typically need and what activities they enjoy most. 4. Likes and Dislikes: Favorite toys, treats, games, and activities they prefer. 5. Daily Routine: Their feeding schedule, bathroom habits, and any specific routines they follow. 6.

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated! Depending on the pet’s age and personality, I’ll tailor activities to their needs — from fetch, tug-of-war, or sniff walks for energetic dogs, to gentle strolls and cuddle time for seniors. I also enjoy teaching fun tricks, using puzzle toys for enrichment, or simply giving lots of love and attention. For cats, I’ll engage them with interactive toys, laser pointers, or quiet lap time if they prefer calm companionship. My goal is to make each visit feel like a mini adventure or cozy staycation — whatever makes them happiest!

Walks and professional care

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is my deep professional background in dog training and handling, as well as my lifelong passion for animal care. I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments — from playful puppies to seniors who need extra patience and support. I specialize in positive reinforcement training and have successfully raised and helped raise multiple champion-level dogs in both conformation and working disciplines. Whether your pup needs basic manners, structured enrichment, or gentle senior care, I tailor my approach to fit their individual needs. I’m also comfortable giving medications, supporting recovery after surgery, and working with anxious or reactive dogs. I treat every dog like family, and my goal is always to keep them happy, safe, and confident while you’re away

I highly recommend Irina as an exceptionally responsible and truly dog-loving professional! She is the only person I could entrust with my dogs without a second thought. It’s such a pity that you’ve moved away—our kennel misses you dearly! Irina has extensive experience and unmatched expertise, and I wish her the best of luck in her work. Thank you for everything, Irina!
