Ex-corporate, full time pet lover❤️

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for pets both personally and professionally, with proven success across a range of services—including dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. While living in Boston, I had the opportunity to walk and care for dogs of all sizes, mostly small to medium breeds, and built strong relationships with both pets and their owners. Whether it was daily walks, overnight stays, or quick check-ins, I always made sure each pet felt safe, loved, and well-cared-for. Growing up, I had two dogs of my own and naturally connected with animals. I took pride in grooming, bathing, and spending quality time with them—especially with my second dog, who needed extra care and patience due to his health. Those early experiences shaped the way I care for animals today: with attentiveness, kindness, and plenty of playtime! From puppies to senior pets, I treat every animal like part of the family—and I’ve earned 5-star reviews on Rover because of it.

Kexin took care of our cat Cookie while we were gone for a weekend trip. She kept us up to date with daily pictures, which we appreciated very much. She was great with Cookie and pickup/dropoff were easy and convenient. We highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I have extensive experience with house sitting, so building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. Before any service, I always schedule a meet-and-greet to ensure we’re a good fit and to understand your pet’s routine and preferences. I’m very respectful of your home and your pet’s environment, maintaining cleanliness and safety at all times. I’m comfortable with in-home cameras and understand their role in providing peace of mind—I just ask to be informed beforehand to ensure privacy and transparency. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a spacious and comfortable environment in my luxurious 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment with nearly 1,200 square feet and plenty of natural light—perfect for pets to relax and play. I share the space with my female roommate, a young law professional who works on-site five days a week and is also a pet lover. Together, we ensure a calm, safe, and welcoming atmosphere for every pet in our care.

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch is full of love, attention, and fun! I enjoy talking to pets to keep them calm and engaged—it helps build trust and makes them feel comfortable. Playtime is always a highlight, whether it’s a game of tug-of-war or fetch to burn off some energy. I also make sure to include plenty of cuddle time and gentle petting for those who just want to relax. Depending on their needs, we might go for walks, explore the outdoors safely, or simply hang out indoors with toys and affection. Every day is tailored to what makes each pet happiest!

Since stepping away from the office world, pet care has become a central and fulfilling part of my daily life. I now have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays with ease. I can take care of up to 5 pets per day, ensuring each one gets plenty of attention and care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins, I’m available and happy to adjust to your pet’s routine. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day.
