The Animal-Loving Dynamic Duo!

Pet care experience

We are a husband and wife team (Mika and Koji) who love all animals (we specialize in dogs, cats, and rabbits)! I (Mika) have taken care of pets since I was a kid, both my own pets and the pets of friends and neighbors. In the last few years, my husband Koji and I have started pet-sitting and house-sitting for people more regularly and professionally. We love to walk dogs, play with cats and bunnies, and cuddle pets who need love & care while their humans are out of town, on vacation, etc.

Mika and Koji are kind and gentle people who genuinely love pets. They made my little dog feel secure and happy. They sent photos every day and kept me informed of how she was doing and behaving. I feel that Rusty was coddled and got lots of reassurance and attention. I think she will be delighted to see them again in the future--both of us will!

Mika came over and spent an hour with the dogs in the middle of the day and it was such a big help! She plays with them, took them on a walk and I feel completely comfortable with them in her care.

Mika took such great care of my dogs… I could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs can be a handful and a little picky, but I felt comfortable leaving them with her. She provides great communication and goes above and beyond! Thank you so much.

Mika and Koji are the best! Our dog loves them and so do we! They make our being away from our fur baby stress free! So glad we found them!

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a two story house with a fenced-in yard in a safe neighborhood. We do not currently have any dogs or cats of our own, so we are both readily able to host pets in our house or stay in someone else's home to take care of pets. We do have two bunnies (one whom we rescued and adopted in Nov. 2023, and one whom we adopted in Feb. 2024), but they are completely separated from the other pets that we board and care for, so it is not an issue at all. (PLEASE NOTE: It says that we have two "dogs" on our Rover profile but that is only because Rover has no other way of listing small animal pets. If you look closer, you will see the profiles for our two bunnies, who have their own room and are separate from where we board dogs and cats.) We have no allergies to animals and live in a smoke and chemical-free environment. Our neighborhood is a great place for walking dogs, but we also enjoy taking dogs to parks and dog-friendly places to romp and play.

Information Mika T. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors we need to take into account. Our preference is for animals that are house-trained and friendly.

A typical day

We love to take the dogs we watch for walks in the neighborhood and romps at the dog park! We also love to give the dogs, cats, and rabbits we watch lots of playtime and snuggles inside as well. Your pet will receive lots of love, care, and attention during their time with us.
