Highlights
Pet care experience
Pre-vet Student & VA & Pets Owner
Hi! I’m a pre-veterinary student and a Veterinary Assistant with over 10 years of experience caring for my own pets. I’ve worked in a veterinary clinic, so I’m comfortable with daily care, medication administration, monitoring behavior changes, and recognizing early signs of illness or stress. As a long-time pet owner, I understand how important routine, patience, and clear communication are when pets stay away from home. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment and always treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m especially attentive to senior pets, shy or anxious dogs, and pets with special care needs. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priority.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Luqi is an amazing sitter! We boarded our cat Rhino with her and she provided super detailed, daily photo/video updates throughout the entire stay (even a poop count!) and asked tons of questions to make sure Rhino was okay. Rhino settled with her well during the stay and if we ever need a new sitter we will definitely be re-booking with her!
Luqi was absolutely amazing with my dog while I was away for two weeks. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and kept me updated throughout the entire day with photos and messages. She made sure I knew how he was doing, including updates on his eating habits, food bowl, and overall well-being. I felt completely comfortable and had no worries while I was away because I knew he was in great hands. It was such a relief knowing someone was taking care of him with so much love and attention. I highly recommend Luqi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him!
Luqi was amazing with Indy! She cared for him for the entire day and kept me updated regularly with photos and messages. Knowing how he was doing throughout the day made me feel completely at ease. Indy looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Thank you for treating him like your own. I would definitely book again and highly recommend Luqi to other pet parents.
Luqi was incredible and amazing, from before we met, and even after we came home. She was so attentive and focused on Azura. I could tell from her care and concern, going above and beyond, that Azura was in good hands. She even brought up some potential concerns she noticed, and talked to me about different options that might help even sent me a video link! She sent plenty of pictures, and provided Azura with a nourishing environment. I am so glad we found her, and will definitely be booking again!
I’ve known Luqi for several years and have personally seen how dedicated and careful she is with pets. She pays close attention to routines like feeding times, walks, and rest, and she’s always quick to notice small changes in behavior or appetite. With over 10 years of experience as a pet owner and her background as a pre-veterinary student and Veterinary Assistant, she’s both knowledgeable and genuinely compassionate. She creates a calm, safe environment and treats every pet as if it were her own. I would feel completely confident leaving my pet in her care and highly recommend her as a sitter.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. At the moment I only care for one dog at a time, which allows me to give each pet my full attention and maintain a calm, low-stress environment. My home has no other pets and no children, making it especially suitable for dogs who prefer quiet surroundings or need extra supervision. With my background as a pre-veterinary student and a Veterinary Assistant, I closely monitor behavior, appetite, and energy levels, and I’m trained to recognize early signs of stress or illness. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and any special needs. I provide regular updates and photos, and I communicate clearly throughout your pet’s stay so you can feel confident and reassured. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, comfortable, and home-like experience.
