Pet care experience

I love animals and will love yours

I have cared for all kinds of animals including many with special needs (blind cat, deaf dog, on meds, etc.). I used to have pet cats but now I travel often therefore can't have my own pets. I am a wildlife biologist by training and I chose this profession because of my love for all animals. I prefer to spend time outside so we will be going on many walks with your dogs. I do not allow cats to go outside, unless it has a leash, because it is deadly for wildlife (birds and small mammals) and risky for the cat. If I stay at your house I will follow your instructions, I am a mature and responsible person. I will care of your pet like it is my own. References are available upon request.

Oksana was wonderful and took great care of Taz. She was a good communicator throughout and sent lots of nice photos of Taz. Thank you!

We're SO happy Oksana was available to stay with our pup again! Thank you Oksana, as always, for being so kind and attentive and totally on-the-ball with everything she requires (and beyond)--and for keeping such a lovely sense of humor about everything!

Oksana took amazing care of my kitties. She wrote down notes about their care, adjusted their food when needed, and constantly updated me with pictures and videos. When I picked up the cats, they both looked healthier and shinier than before I dropped them off. She even provided me with some health details she noticed that I brought up to the vet. She was so kind and definitely gave lots of love to my kitties. Thank you!

Oksana took such good care of our elderly, sometimes-anxious dog in our absence, to say nothing of our house! We're also hugely grateful for the daily updates she provided with photos of our smiling girl, who was clearly content. Thanks, Oksana, you're amazing!

Oksana did a great job - the house was tidy when I came home, she sent pictures of my dog and texts to keep me informed, she brought in my mail. It was a great relief to know my pup was being so well taken care of - I would use Oksana again without hesitation!

Oksana was so gentle and patient when meeting my temperamental pup. She was flexible and kind when things didn’t go as planned with her visits. I was so grateful and trusted her explicitly. I hope we can hire her again. She brings experience and wisdom to her interactions.
