13. ZHU Y.
About: I grew up with a cute little mixed-breed Maltese and a gray Dalmatian during my primary school years. I was too young to know how to properly care for them, but my bond with pets started back then. After college, I began living with roommates and friends who owned dogs and cats. I gradually learned how to walk them, feed them, discipline them, and play with them while their paw parents were away on vacation or too busy to do so. I genuinely care about these little cuties, and I hope to connect with your pets soon! I have a hybrid work schedule and am available for boarding from Thursday to Sunday, starting at 8 AM. I can also provide pet care on other weekdays with advance notice. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment for pets by maintaining a pet-friendly space with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I ensure that pets are fed according to their specific dietary needs and provide them with regular exercise through walks or playtime. I also give pets the attention they need by offering cuddles, petting, and mental stimulation. For overnight stays, I make sure they have a cozy spot to sleep and that their routine remains consistent to reduce stress. I stay in touch with the pet owner and send updates, photos, or videos to keep them informed about their pet’s well-being.

15. Fuliang X.
“Fulinag was amazing with our senior Golden Retriever, Daisy! He has arthritis and needs extra attention, but he made him feel right at home. He sent us daily updates with photos and made sure he took all his medications on schedule. The enclosed yard was perfect for his gentle exercise needs. We're so grateful to have found such a caring and professional sitter.”
16. Sandis W.
