Stay at home mom LOVES animals
Pet care experience
My name is Irina. I have loved animals for my entire life and love all dogs (and all pets) as if they were my own (: A little about me: I'm currently a stay at home mom to my (now 5) year old animal loving son! I love the outdoors, hiking, camping, etc. I also enjoy photography. I have always lived with at least one dog in my home, of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I've also lived with up to 6 cats, and even reptiles, rodents, horses, goats, and fish. I served in the U.S. Army for 8 years as an engineer, and have an excellent work experience, I am just taking this time to focus on raising my son which is why my schedule is now so open and flexible! I am doing this now because I am more than ready to accept another job that allows me to still be with my son at home, and help fellow animal lovers! I am doing this because I genuinely enjoy all animals and I enjoy staying busy. I am completely comfortable caring for all animals! (*if I am not comfortable I will be sure to let you know.. I will not accept work that I cannot handle*) I also take time to volunteer at a local animal shelter for a few hours once a week! When your dog is here, he or she will be treated as a family member, and have full access to our home and fenced yard. I can place baby gates up as needed. Usually I use them when I move around the home between the first and second floor, so no one is left unsupervised. I keep a very clean and baby safe home. We live a very active lifestyle and I walk multiple times a day, so a lack of excersize should not be a concern. ( I really walk A LOT). If you want me to take your dog hiking or to the lake anytime, just let me know and I'd love the company! If your dog just wants to hang out and sleep they can do that, too! I have recently opened up my schedule to allow for a couple dogs here at one time but if your pup prefers to be the only pet in the home I can arrange that as well, just let me know so I can update my availability(: My home is perfect for dogs who like to be in a family environment (unlike a traditional boarding facility). I do not accept many dogs in my home at once ( no more than 4). High energy is completely fine with me! But once again, I only accept well mannered dogs into my home! For drop in visits and house/pet sitting: just let me know when and where! I am very reliable and easygoing. I typically try to spend around a half hour or an hour for drop ins unless you request for me to stay longer. I am very tidy and organized. Depending on the duration I can water plants, brush your pet, do some light cleaning, whatever you need done, I'm happy to help. Again, I am very flexible and accommodating. Communication (on both ends) is VERY important to me. I love to take and send photos to you! I'll send you frequent updates (if you want). I like to keep my prices low because I know how expensive life is and I want to help. In return, we only accept well mannered, family friendly dogs! Please message me if you have any questions! I hope you enjoy my photos, and thank you for considering me! For those new to Rover. Use code IRINAT17950 for 20$ off your very first Rover booking!

Reviews
Irena is a sweetheart and very professional. We are so happy to have found her and hope to have her as the regular sitter for our two cats for a long time to come. We’ve already had her for three different trips. She’s the best.
Irina watched our pup for a long vacation and was great! He felt at home with her, and I got photos and updates regularly. Highly recommend!
Irina and her son was the perfect sitter for Milo. He loved them and they loved Milo! We have ready booked our next get away with them! Thank you!!!!❤️🐶❤️🐶
We’re repeat customers. That should say it all.

We don’t board a lot of dogs at once and treat all of our dogs as if they are our own. I have a fenced yard and we are able to go on a lot of walks!

Information Irina T. would like to know about your pet
I love all animals! I do need to know prior to sitting is to make sure that your pet is okay with small children since my son is with me at all times!! He loves to play with dogs and cats and is very gentle! Also, does your pet prefer to be the only pet during their stay or would they enjoy having some friends?
A typical day
We have a wonderful neighborhood with lots of nearby parks we can go to.. Our yard is not large but we love to walk frequently and I'm even happy to have company on my evening jog. We are also close to the lake, rivers, and parks if the owner allows small outings!

Availability
I currently work from home so my schedule is extremely flexible! Aside from normal outings I am home full time. We walk a lot as well so I am able to get dogs out frequently. I also am able to take dogs on runs and outings if needed!
