Pet care experience

Loving Caregiver

I believe every animal deserves kindness, patience, and respect. That’s the foundation of my approach to pet care. I use positive reinforcement techniques to gently guide each pet whether they’re playful and energetic or calm and senior companions. One of my strongest qualities is careful observation. I studied Early Childhood Education and worked with children for over seven years, where close attention to subtle changes in behavior, mood, and well-being was an essential part of my role. This background naturally carries over into my pet care. I notice small shifts in behavior, energy, or appetite, and I make a point of providing timely, thoughtful updates to pet parents. This helps them feel informed, connected, and reassured while they’re away. Most importantly, I always try to see the world from the animal's perspective. I create a calm, playful, and safe environment where each pet can feel secure and happy. Whether we're out on a walk or relaxing at home, their comfort and emotional well-being come first.^^

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, my top priorities are their safety, emotional well-being, and earning your trust. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, creating a calm and comfortable environment where they can feel at ease. Whether I’m in your home, I maintain a pet safe space, follow any specific care instructions closely, and monitor their behavior throughout the day. I also provide regular updates (including photos, videos, and daily observations) so you can feel reassured and connected, even while you're away!

This was my first time using Ji Young and she was great. She asked good questions prior to and during sitting, provided a ton of pictures and updates, kept the house clean, and clearly took the time to figure out my dogs personalities and adjust accordingly. Will definitely use her again and happy to recommend without hesitation.

Ji Young was great from the start! Felix is a bit of a shy cat and sometimes it takes a while to warm up to strangers—but it didn’t take long to warm up to Ji Young! I appreciated the daily updates and she sent lots of photos of Felix! It was comforting to know that he was well loved after! I will be rebooking Ji Young as long as she available! And a wholehearted Thank you to Ji Young!

Ji Young is so friendly and careful. She really wants to get to know your pet and to make sure they’re happy. She’s very responsible and respectful of the home too. Definitely recommend!

Ji Young K. was an excellent dog sitter for our girls. She was very attentive, sent many photos and updates and followed the girls' routine. She took care of our exuberant, fetch-loving dog and our shy, more nervous dog equally well and they both enjoyed their time with Ji. Ji Young was very clean around our home and took great care of the place while we were gone. The girls are still tired from all the fun they had while we were away a day later. Highly recommend Ji Young for your pet setting needs!

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, allergies, or behavioral tendencies. I’m always happy to adjust my care to suit their unique personality. Whether it’s a specific routine, a favorite spot in the house, a preferred walking pace, or a toy that brings them comfort, I do my best to respect and follow what helps them feel safe and at ease. Your companion’s comfort, interests, and emotional well-being are always at the heart of my care.
