“Jiamin was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Dodo! She offered a meet and greet before booking and from the moment we dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in caring hands. She gave many updates with photos and videos, which showed how comfortable Dodo was during his stay. Jiamin clearly has a natural love for animals—she was attentive, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure Dodo felt at home. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 9. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play and bathe their dog, always knowing I’d treat them like my own. I make sure every pup gets a safe, active walks, fun, playtime and personalized care from medication to mealtime quirks. I pay close attention to behavior changes and follow routines closely to keep dogs happy, healthy and stress-free. My goal? To give every dog the care they truly deserve. I work part-time, but I’m completely available during the week for walks, playtime, and quality care. On weekends, I’m available after 2 PM for afternoon visits. I provide personalized, attentive care whether I’m in my home or the client’s. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I keep the environment calm, clean, and familiar to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure they get enough exercise, love, and care. My goal is to make it feel like their family never left.
