Highlights
Pet care experience
With patience, attention, and love
Hi there, we are Ruyi and Koki! (double the people, double the love!) 👋😁 We are both lifelong animal lovers. To us, they're not just pets, they are family members that we pour all our love into, and we can't wait to take care of yours! I (Ruyi) grew up with dogs my whole life, from a dalmatian to a pug to now TuTu, our sheepadoodle. I'm experienced with dog training and dogs of all ages and personalities (will naturally weave in some trainings if I notice an opportunity). My husband Koki used to be a bioinformatician at Stanford and grew up with 4 cats of different ages. He is super gentle and detail-oriented, and has done everything from bottle feeding kittens to giving injections to senior cats. We've also volunteered at the LA animal shelter and cared for orphaned and injured wildlife during conservation work in Africa. We both work from home so your pet has our attention all day. We are reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet's needs. We love keeping you updated with tons of photos and videos 📸.

Ratings and reviews
Koki and Ruyi took amazing care of Penny! They were very careful and thoughtful in finding out what she needs, then sent loads of cute updates with pics and videos! I’d happily have them look after her again!
It was our first time leaving our frenchie for a longer period of time and Koki & Ruyi took great care her! They were very communicative with lots of pictures and videos to go with their updates, and also really patient and helpful with any problems that came up with her. Overall, we felt very comfortable knowing she was in great hands and having a good time while we were away. 10/10 would recommend!
Ruyi and Koki are the best dog sitters! They really made my dog River at home and loved. River spent 4 days this week while I was working and he was always happy in all the videos and pictures they sent me. I was impressed at how easy they introduced River to their cat Nikki because my dog was never close to a cat. Of course, Nikki their cat and Tutu their dog are super friendly and well trained. I think my dog is going to learn really good behavior from them. River felt so comfortable with Ruyi and Nikki, that he even spent a good time of the day in Koki’s lap while he was working on his computer. They also made sure to give River potty breaks, take him on walks, give him water and treats 👌. Thank you to both of them for taking such a great care of River🙏🏼. I’ll keep booking with them every time I need to go to work.
Ruyi is amazing!! I’m beyond grateful we found her because she is very attentive to River and she made sure to make him feel loved. She sent me a lot of pictures and videos and I can tell River is super happy with her and her dog and cat which are very friendly. Definitely, I’ll keep bringing River with Ruyi every time I need a dog sitter because we trust her and know that our dog will be in good hands. We just love Ruyi!!
Ruyi is amazingly good! River is so happy with her and all the attention she gives to him. I’m so grateful we found her, she truly is an animal lover 👌
Ruyi is an awesome dog sitter! I can’t recommend her enough. She met my dog River today and she was very sweet, patient and caring towards my dog. She sent me lots of pictures and videos, I felt very comfortable and at ease leaving River with her. Her dog is also very friendly and playful, River had a great time with them. He also loved all the treats Ruyi gave him and I really appreciate that she checked with me if River was ok having some treats. I just really liked Ruyi and I would definitely keep bringing River to her. She is the best!

Schedule
Caring for animals is honestly my No.1 priority and something I pour my whole self into. Our schedule is super flexible and we're always available whenever they need us (honestly my world revolves around them😝)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Our home is calm and cozy. There's a patio where fur babies love to hang out and soak up some sun, and do a little bird watching if that's their thing 🐦. TuTu our sheepadoodle is super gentle, he knows when to play and when to give space. Nikki our cat is very curious and friendly and never aggressive. If she needs a moment she just finds a high spot and observes from there. I always learn as much as possible about your pet upfront and cater to their needs. During the stay I keep a close eye on all animal interactions, and if your cat needs their own space to settle in we have a separate room just for them.
Pets
A typical day
We're usually out 3 times a day for potty and outside time. We go on neighbourhood car rides and walks for sniffs, hit up dog parks for socializing (Glen Alla Park is my fav!) Sometimes I even bring TuTu to yoga class and he just sits there waiting like a little gentleman 🧘 On weekends we go a bit further: sometimes the beach, sometimes a hike!
