Highlights
Pet care experience
a cat mom & dog aunt ready to love!
**Moving Out of New Haven end of June 2026** I've been a cat mom for 5+ years and a dog aunt for 6+ years. Earning a cat's love and a dog's cuddle are both incredibly rewarding experiences that I've been blessed with many times. I hope to experience such love with your loved ones!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I like to meet every cat/dog parent(s) beforehand, even if it is just for a few minutes. This helps me understand what is expected of me as the caretaker and if there is anything for me to be aware of. For example, I have a fur nephew who eats anything so he has to walk with a muzzle and I've had a fur niece who takes specific medications at different times of the day. I also always love seeing the parents with their loved ones because it gives me an idea of what type of interactions I'd be having with their loved ones. I care about cleanliness and will make sure the home is left exactly how you leave it. I also respect any dietary restrictions if there are any in the household. Lastly, as a cat mom herself, I care about receiving communication from those who are taking care of my beloved, so I enjoy updating parents with photos and how their loved ones are doing. Please let me know if this is something you'd like me to do!
Ratings and reviews
Eunjoo is very responsible and great with pets! She’s gentle and really tries to understand what they want and need. My cat Cleo loves her! :)
Eunjoo has been an amazing support for my kitties and made going away for trip so much easier! She always communicate ahead of time to make sure she capture all the details needed to make my cats feel comfortable. She also helped house sit and took care of my plants when they needed tending. She’s a strong communicator and have a genuinely love for pets! My kitties really love her and that speaks volume!
I was so pleased with Joo’s ability to connect with my 2 dogs. Both are rescues and have specific needs: Lizzie is fearful and very anxious; Quigley was a stray—perhaps for years—and is house trained only when his human is home. She handled both of their needs with compassion and kindness. They warmed up to Joo quickly. Joo sent my photos and videos of my kids while I was away. It was obvious that they were having a really good time. That put my mind at ease and a smile on my face.
Eunjoo took care of my cat on multiple occasions while I was away. He is a very anxious and shy cat that requires patience, understanding, and a gentle approach. He does not trust people, but he warmed up to Eunjoo quickly. She managed to get him out of his shell and he played with her in no time! I believe it's all thanks to Eunjoo's commitment, time, and effort to make him feel safe. 100% recommend!
Eunjoo has been my cat-sitter since Lord Yupa was 1 years old in 2021. She is very kind, attentive, and patient with Yupa, and the other cats that have lived with us throughout the years. Yupa is very particular with people, and it was a joy to see how much he trusted her in such a short time span. She would send pictures and updates though out the day. She was very timely and would precisely follow his strict eating schedule. Eunjoo is fantastic and I could not recommend her enough!
Eunjoo is my most trusted caretaker for my dog Kiwi! We’ve been booking with Eunjoo for dog sitting since she was a puppy and Kiwi is now nearly 5 years old. She’s so patient, detail oriented, attentive and playful with our dog. Extremely communicative and updates us with photos throughout the day. We always feel confident that Kiwi is in great hands and she always comes back to us happy, well fed and tired out. We love Eunjoo!

Schedule
I am currently unemployed so Monday through Friday is generally flexible besides a few commitments that are consistent each week. For weekends, I'm typically most flexible on Sundays. I typically start my days at 8am and end around 8pm but again, the hours are flexible- please just reach out! I'm a homebody so to get some fresh air, I run around downtown New Haven 3x a week for 2-3 miles (generally Mon, Wed, & Fri). On days I don't run, I go on 5-10min walks. When I'm not job hunting, I am either baking bread, knitting, or watching anime. I am unavailable on: Mondays & Wednesdays after 6PM, Tuesdays between 5-7PM, Fridays between 4PM-7:30PM Most Saturdays (family & partner visit often!)
