Dog Dad Who Loves Animals!

I’m a lifelong animal lover, who is one of the two dog dads of Yongyi, a 6-year-old rescue terrier from Korea. I have experience with dogs, cats and rodents (I was a guinea pig and gerbil kid). As the dog dad to a rescue, I am extremely patient, understanding and compassionate with my animal care.

John is just wonderful. We are very lucky to have found him as a sitter for our fur baby.

John and Raymond were absolutely perfect. Communication was prompt, and photos came multiple times each day. They have a great fenced yard and their dog got along well with our dog. Our dog was comfortable with them right away. This is the first time we "boarded" our relatively new rescue and we were anxious as to how he would respond. He took to John right away when we dropped him off and pictures showed our dog cuddling with Raymond on the couch. We definitely recommend them.

Schedule

I currently work a hybrid schedule so I am at home most of the week. I take my dog on at least two longer walks each day as well as two additional bathroom breaks that can be turned into walks if he’s in the mood. These take place around 7:00AM, 12:00PM, 4:30PM, and before bed (9 or 10:00PM). He’s never left at home for more than a couple of hours and is allowed free range of the house, including all furniture. We have a good-sized fully fenced in yard. In addition to Yongyi, the apartment is home to my husband Raymond. He works a hybrid schedule and WFH some days a week.

Safety, trust & environment

In addition to frequent walks around the neighborhood, I live in a house a large fenced in yard. I have a car with a movable dog car seat that can accommodate small and medium dogs, as well as offers abilities for transportation to one of the many local parks and/or to any emergency veterinarian services, if needed. Above all, I prioritize compassion and respect for my dog and any other animals I’m lucky enough to spend time with.
