About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years, and honestly, I can’t imagine life without them. From tiny pups to gentle giants, healthy tails to those with special needs, I’ve loved and cared for them all. I’ve always had dogs of my own and have also been lucky enough to help care for friends’ and neighbors’ pups over the years. Even though I work a standard 9–5, my partner is always home, so your pup will never be left alone for long. Between the two of us, there’s always someone around for walks, playtime, and snuggles. We make sure pets get plenty of attention and care throughout the day — mornings, evenings, and weekends are all filled with quality time. Whether caring for pets in my home or in yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can feel secure and happy. I pay close attention to their routines, keep a watchful eye on their needs, and give them plenty of love and attention. I’m careful with doors, gates, and leashes to make sure everyone stays safe, and I treat each pet like they’re my own.

“Quynh is amazing, professional and really good with my dog. She came last minute on Christmas Eve and fed him and walked him. She’s detail oriented and my pup took to her right away.”


“I needed a last minute walker before a trip and Cassidy was a blessing! One of my dogs is special needs so it’s difficult to find someone who is not only willing to help but who was also available on such short notice. Def gonna book again!”

About: I was lucky to share five wonderful years caring for my beloved cat. When I found him on the street, he was just a tiny kitten—barely a pound—who loved to curl up on my head every night, just like in my profile picture. With love, patience, and daily care, he grew into a smart, playful, and healthy 15-pound gentleman. We were truly best friends, and he brought endless joy and warmth into my life. Caring for him taught me what it means to be responsible, to respect an animal’s needs and personality, and to love unconditionally. Through him, I discovered not just the joy of pet companionship, but a deep bond that felt like both friendship and family. I bring this same love, care, and understanding to every cat I look after. 🐾 I currently work from home and have plenty of time to care for your furry friend. I’m generally available after 10:00 AM, and I’d love to help out while you’re busy. Thank you for giving me the chance to be a friend to your baby — I truly appreciate the opportunity! 🐈 🐾 Check on your cat’s mood and health, with a photo or video update 🐾 Feed and refresh water as instructed 🐾 Scoop litter and tidy the area 🐾 Offer playtime or quiet company, if your cat wants it 🐾 Handle any special requests (just let me know) 🐾 Send a final update before leaving

About: Hi Rover friends! Growing up with dogs all my life, dogs simply make the world a better place! Occasionally taking care of my brothers pup, Bailey, a german shepherd, I tagged along for puppy training and learned the basics on helping train Bailey. With that experience I learned the important steps of slowly interacting puppies with older dogs, taking her to the dog park and letting her learn on how to interact. I look forward to helping you with your dogs in any way I can and please feel free to ask me any questions along the way. I am very flexible and accommodating when it comes to travel & time. Aside from dog experience, I love the outdoors, working out, traveling and Go Sharks & Giants :)
