Availability

I currently work part-time remotely and take most of my classes online, which allows me a flexible schedule to provide reliable dog walks throughout the week. On weekdays, I am available in the mornings and early afternoons, and weekends are fully open, allowing for multiple walks if needed. Because of my flexible routine, I can provide consistent, punctual, and attentive walks, always following the owner’s instructions and making sure each dog gets safe, unrushed time outdoors. I plan my schedule carefully to accommodate both pets and owners, and I always leave buffer time between walks to ensure punctuality and reliability.

About Junghwa Y.

Safety, trust & environment

During every dog walk, I prioritize safety, trust, and a controlled environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep the dog securely leashed at all times, and stay aware of surroundings, other dogs, and traffic. I pay close attention to each dog’s body language, energy level, and comfort, adjusting the pace and distance accordingly. I also communicate clearly with owners before and after each walk, providing updates or photos so they know their dog is safe and happy. I plan walks with buffer time to avoid rushing, and I make sure the dog’s comfort and well-being are the top priority from start to finish.

Information Junghwa Y. would like to know about your pet

Before our first walk or drop-in, I like to know the basics that help me give the best care possible: 1. Your dog’s typical behavior on walks (leash manners, energy level, social comfort) 2. Any medical needs, medications, or allergies 3. Favorite treats, toys, or activities 4. Any special instructions, routines, or commands that keep them calm and happy This helps me tailor each walk or visit to your dog’s personality, keep them safe, and ensure they have a positive experience. I also like to do a quick meet-and-greet so I can get a feel for their personality and make sure they’re comfortable with me.

A typical day

A typical day with me is calm, structured, and centered around your dog’s routine. Walks are focused on fresh air, steady pacing, and letting dogs explore safely while staying attentive to their comfort and energy level. I keep walks unrushed and adapt to each dog’s personality — whether they prefer a relaxed stroll or a more purposeful walk. Throughout the day, I stick closely to the instructions you provide and make sure to leave clear updates after each visit. My goal is for pets to feel relaxed and owners to feel confident knowing their dog’s needs were met consistently and thoughtfully.

Pet care experience

I currently focus exclusively on dog walking and bring a calm, safety-first approach to every visit. As a nursing student and part-time consultant, I’m used to following instructions closely, paying attention to small details, and communicating clearly — all of which help me provide dependable, thoughtful care. While I don’t have a dog of my own, I’ve spent plenty of time around dogs through friends and family and genuinely enjoy being around them. I’m mindful of leash control, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level, and I take the time to learn what works best for every individual dog. I always prioritize meet-and-greets so both you and your dog feel comfortable before we get started. During walks, I keep things structured but relaxed — never rushed — with attention to pacing, safety, and the environment. After each walk, you can expect a clear update so you know how everything went. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your dog is in attentive, responsible hands, and for your dog to enjoy a calm, positive walk every time.

Junghwa was great with my dog Millie. He was punctual and professional. Normally, Millie is a little hesitant around men but she warmed up to him right away. He is kind, friendly and was absolutely great with my dog!
