About: Dogs are my favorite thing in the world! Dogs are part of the family and deserve to be treat as such. I’ll make sure your pup is happy, safe, and comfortable. I’ve been dog sitting for about 10 years now and have a lot of experience training, walking, and raising dogs. I can be active with your pup or just lay around and give belly rubs. I understand that in order to have a happy, healthy pup everything from what they are eating to where they sleep is important. I’m very familiar with and have done extensive research on dog nutrition and how to interpret and act on dog behaviors so you know I’ll be prepared to care for your dog. Whatever your dog needs, I will be happy to do!

Chen watched our cats, Moose and Rocky, during our 10-day trip to Japan, and we honestly could not have asked for a better sitter. Our boys are very people-oriented cats and don’t enjoy being alone, so leaving them for an extended trip was something we were nervous about. Chen completely put our minds at ease. During her twice-daily visits, she went above and beyond to make sure they got plenty of playtime, affection, and attention. It was clear from every update that she genuinely cared about them and wanted them to feel loved while we were away. She would often stay longer than scheduled just to give them extra companionship, which was incredibly kind and appreciated. One of the highlights of every day of our trip was receiving Chen’s detailed check-in reports and photos. We looked forward to them so much. Seeing Moose and Rocky happy, relaxed, and getting lots of love allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation without worrying about them. We truly feel so lucky to have found Chen. She is caring, dependable, communicative, and clearly has a special connection with animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.
