Pet care experience
Hi there! We are Sophie(Huimin) and Jimmy, working from home finance person and engineer based in Santa Clara, who are also purr-professional dog and cat sitters! We live in a single-family house with large fenced yard, and a sun room. We have two cats (Ragdoll and Siamesa mixed male 7 years old and orange female cat 4 years old), and 1 year old Shiba Inu. All of them are raised when they were three months old puppy and kitten. They are very friendly with dogs and cats! Sophie also has years of dog care experience when she was young.
Reviews
This was my first time using this dog sitting service and I was very pleased with the care my baby Coco received with Sophia and Jimmy. They offered to meet ahead of time and to survey the situation.They updated me consistently about what was happening while I was gone. I felt like Coco was in very good hands. I would definitely leave Coco on their hands again.
I lived with Huimin in a 2b2b apartment, alongside her two wonderful cats for two years. Huimin is a devoted and thoughtful pet owner, always making sure her cats were well-fed, loved, and comfortable. To her, they aren’t just pets—they’re family, and it showed in everything she did for them.
I’m the proud owner of a Pomsky dog, Luna, along with two cats. This year I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Huimin (Sophie) through our regular dog dates at home and the dog park. Sophie has always been incredibly friendly, outgoing, and full of energy when it comes to playing with Luna. She is always excited to engage with pets and give them the love they deserve. Huimin’s partner, Jimmy, is very patient and calm, which is great when handling pets, especially in situations that require a bit more time and understanding. Together, they create a balanced environment of fun, love, and care for any animal they’re with.
I had the pleasure of working with Huimin at our previous company, and during that time, I got to know her both professionally and personally. Like me, Huimin is an animal lover, and she has a deep affection for both cats and dogs. I have two cats myself, and we would often talk about our pets, sharing tips and stories. If you’re looking for someone who is thoughtful, reliable, and loves animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Huimin. Your pets will be in very capable hands.
