Hi! I’m Iryna, an animal lover based in Knokke. I offer dog walking and home visits for cats, always with a calm, patient and individual approach. I have my own cat from Ukraine, who was rescued during the war and later brought safely with me to Belgium. I also have experience with dogs affected by trauma, fear and anxiety after the war, including dogs that are easily startled or need extra time to trust a new person. I understand the importance of patience, routine and respecting an animal’s boundaries. Dog walks usually last 30–45 minutes, depending on the dog’s age, energy level and needs. I walk mainly in quiet areas of Knokke, parks, green areas and along the coast, choosing a safe environment that suits each dog. Cat home visits last at least 30 minutes and can include feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles and attention according to your cat’s personality and normal routine. My availability is flexible, and I can arrange visits and walks on weekdays and weekends depending on my calendar. I do not offer boarding or overnight care, so pets are not left unattended in my home. During a booked dog walk, your dog stays with me throughout the service. During cat visits, your cat remains safely in its own familiar home after my visit. I’m happy to send photos and updates after every walk or visit. I speak English, Ukrainian and Dutch and would be happy to meet you and your pet before the first booking.
