Your dog’s next Best Friend🐶🐾

Hi! My name is Dongju but I go by Yuni😊 I’ve raised three Maltese dogs, and they were my family for many years until they passed away from old age. I truly love dogs! After that, I began pet sitting and walking in my home country, Korea. Now that I’ve moved to New York, I’d love to care for your dog with the same love and attention I gave my own💛🐶🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule and can stay with your pup full-time. If your dog needs frequent bathroom breaks, slow-paced walks, or extra cuddles, I’m the perfect match! 👉WHAT I OFFER -1:1 attentive care (I never double-book!) -Photo + video updates every few hours 📸 -Safe walks all the time! -Clean, calm home environment -Very responsive – I usually reply in minutes I treat every dog like my own. I understand how stressful it can feel to leave your fur baby with someone else, so I make sure you always know how your dog is doing with updates, messages, and lots of photos.

Dongju is absolutely amazing! She is caring, patient, loving, and, most importantly, trustworthy. She took wonderful care of my dogs and gave me complete peace of mind. I would recommend her to everyone I know without hesitation. If you're looking for someone reliable who truly loves animals, Dongju is the perfect choice!

DongJu always provides excellent & reliable care for my Maltese, Chanel. In fact I'm learning to be a better pet owner through my association with her!

Yuni is a great dog walker! She is very nice, calm, and responsible - she shows up on time and sends photo and video updates during each walk. Will definitely contribute working with her.

Schedule

I currently don’t have a full-time job, so my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to give pets my full attention and adjust easily to their routines. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddle breaks, I’m available to make sure your dog feels loved and cared for throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a clean apartment and make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable in my care. For exercise and fresh air, I take dogs on regular walks to a nearby park. I always keep them on a leash and pay close attention to their safety during walks and playtime. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home.

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged and happy! I usually take them on relaxing walks, play their favorite games (like fetch or tug), give them lots of cuddle time, and make sure they get plenty of mental stimulation. I always adjust activities based on each pet’s age, energy level, and personality so they feel comfortable and have fun.

I’d love to know your pet’s routines, personality, energy level, and any special needs. Please tell me about their feeding schedule, walking habits, medications, favorite activities, and anything they may be nervous about. The more I know, the better I can care for them!
