Information Irina M. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know how to make your pet comfortable in your absence. What do they like, what is their usual routine, what they don't like, should I be aware of anything out of the ordinary.

A typical day

I love to follow your pet lead and make them as comfortable as possible. I watch for cues and do what makes them happy. We talk, play, cuddle, walk - whatever they need.

Pet care experience

I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was a child. I had a dog since I was 7 years old and a cat through my childhood. My family currently has a dog and 3 cats and we weekly volunteer with my daughter at Berkeley Humane. I'd love to take care of your pets and make sure they are comfortable while you are away.

Irina took great care of our large dog and our home while she was dogsitting for us. We had good communication throughout the reservation process, pre-visit, and dogsitting duration and are grateful that Tilly was so well cared for. Thank you, Irina!

I arrived home to a 'happy, healthy, and well kept after' Lucy Belly thanks to Irina...AND a clean, well-kept home after a two week trip. Means the world! Irina responds quickly in her communication and was patient with my helicopter mom-ing of Lucy. I'd love to hire her again and am grateful I found her!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
