PUP & LOVE
⋆˚。 𝑰𝑵𝑻𝑹𝑶𝑫𝑼𝑪𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵 。˚⋆ Hi! this Pup and Love by Katy . I believe dogs deserve more than care — they deserve LOVE. 💕 As lifelong animal lovers and proud corgi parent, I’ve created a safe, cozy, and cage-free home where pups feel truly part of the family. From playful puppies to gentle seniors, anxious souls to energetic athletes, we cared for pups with all kinds of quirks and we adapt to every dog’s needs with patience, experience, and heart. With flexible schedules, Pet CPR & Basic Life Support certification, and a home designed around pup-friendly living (pet-safe cleaning, no-additive treats, low-jump beds, and even an in-building private dog park), I go the extra mile so your best friend can feel secure, loved, and happy. 🩺 Pet CPR & BLS Certified 🐕🦺 Pet Insurance Insured + Rover Insurance ( Double Insured ) 。⋆ 𝑨𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝑼𝒔 ⋆。 My cuddle-bug corgi 🐶💖 is fully vaccinated, on flea/tick prevention , spayed and friendly to big+small dogs. She’s the joy in my life and I care about her so much I removed my bed frames so it's lower and feels easier for the pup's hips & joints. The Neighborhood we live in is VERY Dog-Friendly : There's over 5 Vet within 1 mile of where we live, the closest is Veterinaire Pet Care ( only 0.1 mile away !). There's also several public dog parks within 25 mins walk. ;) and we have a private in-building dog park. ---------------------------- Fun Facts About Us * Asian household rule 🤣: no shoes indoors, and every set of paws gets a gentle wipe after their walk (yes, even butts !) + with coconut oil balm to sooth their feet. * We have at least 4 dog brushes at home for brushing and massage (somehow they always disappear when you need them. * We do Double Filtered water or Bottled Water only. Not because we are water snob but JC Water contain heavy metals and lead that passed thur the pipes. It's a safe amount for us because we are BIG humans (worst thing that can happen is hair loss haha) but for tiny pups I'd like to eliminate as much harm substances as possible. * If you pup is a picky eater, I will hand feed, do tricks, no matter what, no babies are leaving an asian household hungry ! ⋆˚。⋆𝑸𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑨𝒏𝒔𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒔 。˚⋆ 📪 Commonly Asked Questions: (We get these a lot during meet and greet) Q: What exactly does Katy do for freelancing ? I work as a model , although ... I do not look like one during my usual off-duty days. Q: Can You guys do a later/earlier pickup/dropoff ? Yes , just let me know ;) Im usually flexible. Q: How do you handle dogs with high energy or special needs? For active dogs, we incorporate longer walks, games, and mental enrichment (puzzle toys, training reinforcement). For dogs with special needs, I carefully follow your instructions, including medications or mobility support. Q: Where will my dog sleep? Pups are welcomed on our bed ;) But if your dog is crate-trained, I’ll maintain that routine. Q: How many pups do you take in at one time ? I try to only take in one pup at a time. Sometimes there will be short overlays, in that case I always let the parent know. :) Q : What should I pack for my pup? Please bring your pup’s regular food (enough for their stay) and any medications in the original container with instructions. A favorite toy, blanket, or even a worn t-shirt from home can help them feel extra secure.💕 Everything else is covered—We make sure your pup has everything they need to feel right at home! 🐾✨ During their stay we provide: - Fresh pee pads (if needed*) and potty bags for walks 🚶♀️ - Clean food & water bowls (sanitized daily ) 🥣💧 - Toys & ropes , Kongs and Puzzles for playtime 🎾 - Gentle wipes for paws (and yes, booties too!) after walks 🧼🐕 - Cozy blankets and lots of cuddles 💕 Q: Do you require vaccinations? Yes, for everyone’s health and safety, pups need to be up to date on core vaccines (Rabies, Distemper/DAPP, and Bordetella) and current on flea/tick prevention.🐾✨We may accept unspayed female but no un-neutered male pups.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Thank you so much for taking good care of my baby while I was away! I appreciated all the check-ins very much and would love to book you again!

I highly recommend them as a pet sitter. They were very communicative and consistently sent pictures and updates of my dog, which I really appreciated. They were incredibly sweet, kind, and easy to work with, and I had absolutely no issues. They followed all of my instructions perfectly, and it’s clear they truly care about the pets they look after. It’s never easy leaving your baby with someone you don’t really know, but they gave me so much confidence and made me feel completely comfortable while my dog was in their care. I’m very happy with my experience and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.💖

Best sitters! Luca is always so excited to go stay with Katy and Lucas:)

Katy and her partner are wonderful dogsitters! They are extremely responsive and loving, and they send lots of photos. I tend to be a bit anxious about leaving my baby but they really put me at ease with their frequent photos and updates and I can tell that Ollie had such a good time with them and Chanel. I am really happy and looking forward to booking with them again in the future!

I really cannot say enough good things about Katy and Lucas. My dog can be difficult and they were absolutely incredible at every step. Their place is dog paradise: toys, a dog park, they even noticed my dog was itchy and gave him a special spray to try to help! I greatly appreciated all the updates and would not hesitate to recommend them to any dog owner!!!

Katy and Lucas were wonderful with my little corgipoo, Bridey! They were always on time and always communicated their hour spent with Bridey (when they left, how far they walked, play time with the balls, etc.) with text messages and great photos! Bridey was well taken care of by both of them!

Schedule
With our own corgi at home, caring for dogs is already built into our routine—we’re used to early morning potty breaks, daily walks, and plenty of cuddle/playtime throughout the day. Because I’m a freelancer and my boyfriend is a film student, we both have flexible schedules and are home most of the time. This allows us to provide frequent attention, consistent supervision, and fun enrichment for the pups in our care.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment where pups are treated like our babies and given plenty of attention throughout the day. They are welcomed to cuddle up in bed—our home is their home. All of our cleaning and household products are 100% natural and pet-safe. We’ve even removed our bed frame so pups don’t have to jump and risk injury—making it gentler on hips and joints. Because we have flexible schedules, your pup will never be left alone for long periods. Walks, playtime, and cuddles are built into our daily routine, and we’re committed to creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where every pup feels comfortable and cared for.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with us starts with breakfast and a cheerful morning potty break and a nice walk to get the day moving. Throughout the day, we mix in walks, play sessions, and enrichment games—from fetch and tug-of-war to puzzle toys . For lower-energy pups, there’s plenty of cozy cuddle time with us. In the afternoon, we usually take a longer walk (sometimes at the piers or through nearby parks) to let pups sniff, explore, and burn off energy. Evenings are all about winding down—dinner, gentle play, belly rubs, hair brushing and one last potty walk before bed. No matter their age or personality, we tailor activities to each pup’s needs: whether they’re a high-energy adventurer or a calm cuddle-bug, we make sure their day is balanced with exercise, attention, and love.

- Before caring for your pup, I like to learn as much as possible so I can keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. Some things that are especially helpful to know: Routine & Schedule – feeding times, potty breaks, walk preferences, and bedtime habits. Dietary Needs – allergies, restrictions, or special supplements/medications. Health Concerns – past injuries, current conditions, or anything I should watch for.
