“Danielle took great care of my dog! Usually my dog is very sad when I leave but she was running to meet Danielle and to get inside.

I also have plenty of experience with bathing, grooming, nail trimming, and other general care activities.

About: Hi there! I am Jiayi(Judy) and besides being a dog owner (my buddy is a friendly little corgi). I have experience in dog & cat drop-in visit, dog walking and dog sitting, as well as animal care volunteering in animal shelters. Your dog will have fun with my little dog who really loves to make friends with other dogs by wagging her fluffy tail. I’ve had a lot of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes through my volunteer work at animal shelter. I will gladly take care of your furry baby while you are away. I’ll follow your directions and schedule to keep things consistent for your pets. I would like to do everything including feeding them with wet or dry food, deep-cleaning their bowls, toys and litter boxes, monitoring their health and behavior, going outside for walks and sunbathing and socializing pets with gentle handling and play. Also, I will be sending photos and videos of your furry baby throughout the service.

I’ll stay attuned to your dog’s needs and ensure they feel confident and safe with me. -Leash Pullers: I have experience walking large dogs(Huskies and German Shepherds) that tend to pull on the leash.
