Hey there, I’m Ilona! I am an artist and lifelong animal lover with many years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and the occasional rabbit or fish. I also enjoy taking care of plants when I’m pet sitting. My ethos is simple, to treat animals with empathy and care, to respect their individual personalities and needs, to be present and attentive to their safety and well being, and to give pet guardians peace of mind. I grew up with cats and love spending time with feline friends. My constant companion is my 8 year old Jack Russell Terrier/ xolo mix named Rudy who I adopted from the NELA shelter, who you can see in my bio pic on a Sunday morning LA river jaunt. Living in Los Angeles,, where we are blessed with such beautiful weather for much of the year, I particularly enjoy dog walks and hikes. Look forward to meeting you and providing loving, and dependable care for your pets.
