Caring pet sitter/ Grad Student
Pet care experience
I’ve cared for family/friends’ dogs since 6 years ago (house sitting, feeding, walking, bathing). I have cared for 2 pit bull dogs, alaskan malamute, german short haired pointer, and a 3-legged mixed terrier. I adopted a orange tabby cat from the shelter 5 years ago, and adopted an timid and aggressive non-litter trained bengal from the shelter a year ago. After several months of training, she became outgoing and expressive with her love. Both of my cats learned within several days to sit, shake hands and lay down on command. While I was taking care of the german short haired pointer, Daisy, I taught her Figure 8, play dead and high five!
Reviews
Reliable. Prompt. Trustworthy. Honest. Fair. Good with communications and following directions. Great photos. Friendly. Sweet. Great belly rubs. We have used several different Rover sitters over the years. Almost all were very good with no issues and we would use them again. Kaixaun is by far the best sitter who we have met. We highly and unconditionally recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an high rise apartment complex in Hell’s Kitchen that is very pet-friendly. I live with my roommate in a two bedroom apartment. The apartment is about 900 square feet, all wood floor with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. I have cared for aggressive dogs and cats, and was able to help easy their anxiety with positive reinforcement and trick-learning! We have two cats living in the apartment, both are very outgoing and chill cats.

Information Kaixuan A. would like to know about your pet
I would want to know about any special needs or behavioral that I should pay attention to. I would also like to know allergies, medical conditions of the dogs/ cats, so that I can be more aware to read what the pet needs.
A typical day
I love to provide dogs with enough physical activities, fast or slow walking, or running with high-energy dogs in the park based on the dog’s comfort level. I love teaching pets new tricks, which I am really good at because I had taken courses with animal behavioral specialist when I adopted my pets. There are some calm and quiet blocks around me in hell’s kitchen, and I love to take dogs to hudson river park for walks.
