My name is Irene, and I'm a 26-year-old architectural assistant living in Portslade since 2023. I adore animals and grew up in a country house with 4 dogs and over 20 cats, so I can't imagine life without them. I have extensive experience with puppies, small to medium-sized dogs and cats.
I also have vast experience here on Pawshake, where I've provided pet care services to many satisfied pet owners.
I like to arrange a meet & greet to get to know you and your pet at your convenience. My walks range from 20 to 30 minutes, with up to 3 walks per day depending on your dog's needs, and I also offer 1-hour walks. Walks take place on quiet streets and in parks. I'm available in the mornings from 5-7 and evenings from 5:30-late, and I'm happy to provide training during walks.
I work an 8-5 job in central Brighton but have flexible lunch hours to check in on your pet. If house-sitting, I can also bring in the mail, water plants, and handle small tasks around the house. Your pet's safety is my top priority; I aim to understand their exercise needs, interactions with other animals, and any fears they may have.
I keep my phone nearby to respond to messages promptly and can send pictures throughout the day to keep you updated.
If you need a pet sitter in the Hove/Brighton/Portslade area, I'd love to take care of your pet.
**Note:** I only care for vaccinated pets.
**Cancellation policy:** One day in advance.

Irene was amazing. She came and met me and Bruno and she was very polite and she asked all the right questions about the house and what Bruno needs. During my time away we kept in touch and I received multiple updates about Bruno and how things were going at the house - she even watered the plants, fed the fish and brought in some deliveries! I would highly recommend Irene. I had previously been let down by a friend who was supposed to look after Bruno so it was such a relief to have Irene and know Bruno was cared for. I am already looking to book her again later this year :)
Henry loved his time with Irene! It was a very hot day, and Irene did all she could to keep Henry cool and happy. She spent a lot of time with Henry and I came home to a very happy dog with a Waggy tail! We look forward to seeing Irene again soon 😃
