Pet care experience

Pawsitively Pawfect Pet Care🐾

Hi I'm Irina😊 Animals are my pride and joy. I've grown up around them all my life. From rescuing & raising baby squirrels, to helping train with my friends dogs. I have extensive experience petsitting, and years of professional and volunteer experience working with animals as well. Including local volunteer work at Homeward Bound. I’ve personally rescaled over 6 cats in the past 10 years, as well as fostering a cat currently. I have gained experience working with barn animals including horses, goats, and chickens. My heart holds tons of love for puppies and kittens, as well as elderly dogs and cats. I have experience administering medication , and some grooming knowledge although I am not trained professionally. I am extremely versatile and will provide you with the best care for your furry loved ones. I'm also big on leaving spaces as clean as when I came in, so you can rest assured that your home and pets will be loved and safe while you're away.✨🐾

Irina is beyond the best not only is she extraordinary with my pets she has such a great personality she’s so loving towards my pets and always checks in with me ( which I love!! my pets are my children) I couldn’t imagine anyone else watching my babies ! There so comfortable around her they see her as family and to us she is Family.

Our dear doggies love Irina. She has an obvious love and attachment to animals that makes her very caring towards them. Walks and gives updates afterwards Highly recommend!!

Irina has been caring for my 3 german shepherds and 2 cats for the past year. I go away quite frequently, and I've never had any issues leaving my wild bunch with her. She's very quick to answer any questions I have and provides plenty of updates. I could tell upon meeting her that she has a special way with animals. My eldest pup is a rescue and has a great deal of anxiety when it comes to meeting new people, but he instantly loved her. My house is always spotless when I return which is also a plus. I would highly recommend her for all of your petsitting needs.

Irína has been helping me with my dog walking/ sitting business for almost a year now and she’s been just amazing! She’s reliable and communicative with me and the clients we’ve had. All the dogs/cats have loved her. She’s super attentive and gives them the exercise and love they need. I only hear good things from the clients! I definitely recommend her 😊

Please let me know about any health issues, or anxiety. I know sometimes our furry fam can struggle with separation issues. I previously dealt with some with my 2nd cat. I don’t ever want them to feel alone or uncomfortable, so I will do my absolute best to provide a safe space for them.
