Irina

Irina was a wonderful house sitter! We were gone for a week and she took great care of our dog Cora, and of our house. Irina was easy to communicate with and we came home to a happy dog and very clean house. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Irina come stay at our house again, and would highly recommend her for house and pet sitting.

Irina was incredible. This was my first experience with House Sitters of America and it won't be my last. The angst I felt leaving my puppy and my home in a strangers care was completely nullified when I met her. I had no worries when I was traveling. When I returned my house was cleaner than I left it and my puppy loved her. and when she left my pup kept going to the closed bedroom door to see where she had gone. Her communication skills are excellent.

Irina has sit for me before and she is a great housesitter....she takes great care of my cat and the house and keeps me informed while I'm gone. I highly recommend her (just not for the weeks I'm gone)

We cannot recommend Irina highly enough! For an entire month, she took care of our three beloved cats while we were on vacation, and she went above and beyond in every possible way. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in such capable hands. Irina kept us updated regularly with photos and messages, which really helped us feel connected to our pets while we were away. It was clear that our cats were not just being looked after—they were being loved ... MOREWe cannot recommend Irina highly enough!

Irina kept us updated regularly with photos and messages, which really helped us feel connected to our pets while we were away. It was clear that our cats were not just being looked after—they were being loved and cared for as if they were Irina's own. They were well-fed, and received plenty of playtime and affection. When we returned, our home was spotless, and our cats were as happy and healthy as ever. Will be definitely be asking Irina to house-sit again in the future!

Irina was just stellar, and I’m not sure there are enough adjectives to describe how much we appreciated having her stay in our home and care for our cats. She was flexible as we had to change our travel plans. She was also willing to arrive 1 day prior to our departure which was very helpful. Irina is a very good and efficient communicator. Our house looked even more orderly and clean when we returned. All of our cats were happy and healthy. I am so hoping we will be able to have Irina come ...

I am so hoping we will be able to have Irina come back and care for our three boys, and our feral project in the future should we find ourselves traveling again. Peace of mind and confidence that our fur family would be well looked after are among the gifts that Irina provided for us.

Irina took excellent care of our cat and house. She was communicative, responsive, reliable, and a really nice person! We would definitely use her services again!

Irina was flawless! Perfect communication, happy cats, and the house was immaculate when we returned.

Irina was incredibly responsible and thoughtful. She dealt very calmly with having two dogs with different needs - one with separation anxiety and one with some medical issues. She always responded to messages. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. We are grateful to have had such a responsible and reliable house and dog sitter in Irina.

Irina was at my house for nearly a month. I was home 6 days of that month between trips so I was able to get to know Irina. She took excellent care of the house and cats while I was gone. She was a delightful house sitter and I highly recommend her.

Irina is top notch! We had Irina here twice in May. The second time, it was her idea to come back in between two other jobs so that we could take care of some out of town business that we'd been putting off. She is at the top of the list of all of the house sitters that we have had in 5 years! She was wonderful with our 3 pets, two cats and a big energetic lab mix, and very conscientious in all aspects. Irina read my instructions carefully and asked a lot of questions for clarification. ... MOREIrina is top notch! We had Irina here twice in May.

Irina read my instructions carefully and asked a lot of questions for clarification. Great attention to detail. She is an excellent communicator, always responding quickly to texts and emails. She also cleaned the house before our return, a nice bonus. I have no reservations in recommending Irina. She will take superb care of your home and pets!

Irina has sat for us twice now, and we would happily have her back anytime. She is responsible, considerate, clean, and easy to work with. She was so kind and gentle with our dog, and she didn't hesitate to help out when our dog had a back injury and needed to be carried up and down the stairs for the whole sit. We look forward to having her sit for us again in the future.

Irina was the perfect housesitter. She had excellent communication and left the house better than she found it. Would love to have her again in the future.

Irina was a wonderful sitter, our elderly dog took to her immediately and she made a consious effort to familiarize herself with him. Lovely person, responsible and easy to communicate with. Many thanks!

Irina was such a wonderful cat sitter! She was communicative and responsive without being bothersome. She went out of her way to help my shy cat adjust to her and try to correct any issues. And when I returned, my house was spotless! I couldn't ask for more. I can't wait to have her back again soon.

I was very fortunate to find Irina to be my cat/condo sitter on relatively short notice. She totally lived up to high expectations based on others' reviews of her petsitting. Although inconvenient for her, she was able to arrive early to meet before I left on my trip, and was very responsive to all communications before and during my travel. She took wonderful care of the kitties, was innovative in finding new ways to play with them and had good catcare questions and suggestions. It was ...

It was also a pleasure to get to know Irina - and I'm happy to recommend her to others who need reliable house sitting and pet care.

Irina was first first catsitter from this site and a real pleasure! She was easy to communicate with, prompt, and very kind. She left my home in immaculate condition and I'd be delighted to have her stay again.

I am happy to write an endorsement for Irina Komarova as a house and pet sitter. Irina has sat for us several times last time in may 2018. My house, plants and pets (2 fussy cats) were well taken care of. Everything was attended to as if it was her own home. We left on our trips without having to worry about our home or pets.

Irina was lovely -- punctual, organized and caring. Took wonderful care of our cat, and even stayed an extra day when our flight was delayed.

Irina was a fantastic house/pet sitter. She looked after our 2 Portuguese Water Dogs and even took our female to get her rabies shot. Our house looked cleaner than when we left. Everything was in order and I was able to find everything -- sometimes that is not always the case with other sitters. The dogs loved her. She is a very nice and conscientious person. I would certainly recommend her to anyone. Since she does not have a car at the moment, she took a train and bus to get to our house. ... MOREIrina was a fantastic house/pet sitter.

She took us to the airport and picked us up. Again, I would recommend her.

Irina was a wonderful sitter. 'Missy' loved her. I was pleased with how she cared for my dog and home. I hope she will sit for me again.

Could not recommend Irina highly enough. She took care of our plants, kept the apartment as clean as when we left it, and most importantly of all, gave our cats the companionship they needed. It may sound strange, but it's a good sign when you get home and your cats basically ignore you. I know they had all their needs (love, food and affection) taken care of in our absence.

This was my first experience of finding a house sitter when I had to travel for five weeks, leaving my cat, birds and plants in someone else's care. I was absolutely delighted by Irina. A quiet, thoughtful lady, she stayed in touch on a regular basis while I was away. Her questions made me understand that she genuinely cared about my home and pets, and was very careful to look after things perfectly. Irina didn't have experience with birds before, but was open to learning about them. When I ...

When I returned, I found my apartment immaculate, with the kind of cleanliness that you only get when someone is staying on top of things on a daily basis. My pets were all happy and healthy, and totally relaxed. I could tell they had been so well cared for that they barely noticed I was gone! I could not have asked for a better experience with Irina. I would not hesitate to recommend her and I hope very much that she comes back to stay another time.

Irina is a warm, caring person who took fabulous care of our cat while we were away. She was thoughtful by leaving us a fruit and cheese tray upon our return. She checked-in several times through e-mail during our travels, so we knew things were okay at home. Irina is a wonderful choice for a house sitter, especially if you have animals!

Having recently had the good fortune of having Irina Komarova house and pet sit for us, it is my pleasure to highly recommend her for your house sitting needs. Our home and especially our dog (Charlie) mean a great deal to our family. Irina understood this importance and we felt in extremely capable and trustworthy hands with her.

Irina housesat for me while my family and I were traveling for 2 weeks. She is such a lovely person and so interesting to speak to. She took excellent care of our 2 large dogs and house. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Irina.
