Pet care experience

I have had two rowdy dogs for ten years now. My family adopted them as puppies and have adapted our house to give them an indoor-outdoor living area. One of my dogs is very anxious and afraid of men, she finds comfort in me most, and with time I have helped her combat this anxiety with gentle and repetitive exposure to her fears. We rescued a kitten five years ago and integrated him into our house with the dogs. I walk my dogs every day and use good leash manners. I also take care of my friends' dog and cats when they're away on vacation, giving me experience with pets of varying personalities.

Marie Irene is one of the most responsible and genuinely caring people I know, especially when it comes to animals. She has a natural ability to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved right away. Whether it’s sticking to routines, paying attention to small details, or going the extra mile to ensure a pet is happy, she consistently shows dedication and reliability. I would trust her completely with any pet, she treats them like her own!

Irene has taken care of my dog many times. My dog is high-energy and a bit needy, and she LOVES Irene. Irene is smart, conscientious, and responsible, and I trust her completely with the welfare of my pet.
