Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Every pet is different, and I believe caring for them means understanding their individual needs and personality. I have cared for multiple pets, each requiring a different approach. One of the Persian cats I looked after was 19 years old and needed special care. I had to prepare specific meals, make sure fresh water was always available, and assist him when he needed help getting to and from the litter box because of his age. For the Exotic Shorthair and Tabby cats I cared for, keeping their environment clean and making sure their litter boxes were well maintained was especially important. I also spent time playing with them and giving them attention so they felt comfortable and secure.💕 I have also cared for a dog who had unfortunately been abandoned three times in the past and struggled with anxiety. Whenever his owners left the house, he would cry loudly and become distressed. 😔The most important thing for him was reassurance, patience, and helping him understand that he wasn’t alone. Seeing him calm down and feel safe was incredibly rewarding.🐶❤️ Through these experiences, I learned that there is no single way to care for animals. Every pet has different needs, routines, and emotions. Once I understand what makes your pet comfortable and happy, I adapt and do my best to provide the care and attention they deserve.🙏🏻
Ratings and reviews
Duygu did an excellent job caring for my cat. She’s very sweet and nice, my cat loved her. She’s very thoughtful and she did everything I asked for and more. She will be the first person I ask to watch my cat again.
We needed a dog walker at the very last minute and Duygu came through to save the day. She was very attentive and great with communication. Last but not least, she was very very patient with our dog Miso and she ended up winning her trust. Looking at the pictures, she really took care of our dog and we would not hesitate to hire Duygu again to care for our Miso.
Amazing job! Reliable and thorough, and was very good at keeping me updated through the day. Would definitely hire again!
Duygu took care of our family dog, she was really adorable, our Cocker Spaniel "Cook" really loved her, she even came with a treat for him. She took care of him for one week while we were on holidays, we asked her to brush him every other day since his fur is very messy, we could tell coming back that she was very caring with him. We will use her services again I would definitely recommend!
I highly recommend Duygu as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, trustable and also she took cares my beautiful cat Chanel. I would trust her to treat any pet with kindness and the same level of care she would give her own...
Duygu took care of my dog and +10 years old cats. She is very careful about many things and especially with my pets. I left for holidays multiple days and I’m not worried at all. She is open to communication and gave us news about our pets. Thank you ! 🙏🏻

Schedule
I’m currently waiting to hear back about my Master’s degree application in the Bay Area, which gives me a lot of free time and flexibility in my schedule. Unfortunately, because of my current lease agreement, I’m not allowed to have a pet of my own. As someone who comes from Istanbul, a city full of animals and known for its love of cats and dogs I really miss having animals around me. For me, pet sitting is the perfect way to fill that gap while helping pet owners feel at ease when they are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, making sure they receive the attention, care, routine, and affection they need. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, walks, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to provide a safe and loving environment while their owners are away.💞
