Patient, easygoing, utmost care

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a full-time PhD student at Purdue so I mostly stay in town :) People mostly book me for boarding and drop-in visits. Please feel free to come checkout my house and meet me before booking! Responsibility and satisfaction are my first priorities. I always do extra, than pet parents requested and expected, to make sure that both fur babies and parents are satisfied with my service. During drop-in visits, I usually stay longer than requested, especially when your babies would like to interact with me. I do not wish to leave them not having enough fun. During boarding, I take doggies out to dog park and walking to consume their energy, or for cats&senior dogs, I provide overflowing attention and accompanying. I have a domestic shorthair cat, Bentley, adopted from the animal shelter. He was very shy at first, hiding at the corner crate instead of meowing for attention. When I picked him out of a room of adorable kittens, the staff there were surprised that he would get adopted. Luckily, he has gradually become an outgoing cat. He trusts me so much now and loves laying&sleeping next to me. Also my massage skills got approved by him! Besides caring for dozens of fur babies from Rover, I help with my friends’ pets when they’re away, especially Ragdolls. I provide extra patience and attention when taking care of senior animals.

Hanzi was more than I could have ever hoped for taking care of my Storm. She was attentive to her needs, while giving her all the love and play time she could ever want. Hanzi sent me updates through out the day through videos and messages. I did not have to worry for a minute while being out of town for a wedding, I knew my girl was in great hands.

Information Hanzi X. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your fur babies have extra needs I need to take care of. I’d love to see that they have a great experience with me! Last but not least, for boarding and daycare options: although this is very rare situation, if your baby damages anything in the house, the owner should be responsible for the costs. For example, tearing the retractable gate, scratching the door, pee/poop on the rugs, chew on stuffs (other than toys)… I will also keep expensive items out of reach from them. What I’m providing is to make your baby feel home. I do not wish to build my house with kennels or trap your baby in an empty concrete room. Let’s maintain the environment together:)

A typical day

I love spending time with high-energy dogs. Sometimes I “run” them instead of walking them. Tug toys and playing catch are my fav when consuming their energy.

I could come to your place and take care of your pets in the morning, afternoon or at night daily. Boarding is also welcome! 🏡 I live in a spacious lake-view house with a big backyard in West Lafayette. There are only 2 people in my household. The whole house is thoroughly cleaned before each boarding. Your babies will have their separate rooms at my house, if needed. They are free to explore everywhere here and will NEVER get crated 🐎
