Highlights
Pet care experience
Compassionate and Reliable Care
In addition to caring for my own beloved dogs in the past, I have extensive hands-on experience as a dog handler and groomer at OC Animal Care, where I’ve worked with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My commitment and passion were recognized when I was honored as Volunteer of the Month. Currently, I don’t have a dog of my own, which many pet owners find reassuring—there’s no need to worry about compatibility with another dog. I care for one dog at a time, allowing me to offer dedicated, undivided attention to your pet. I provide gentle, one-on-one care tailored to each dog’s unique needs, always focusing on their comfort, safety, and well-being. I use kind, positive communication to help every dog feel secure and seen. I go above and beyond to ensure that every dog feels as safe and comfortable as possible while in my care. I’m a true animal lover at heart, and it brings me deep joy to connect with both dogs and cats. It’s more than a job—it’s my calling.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Very welcoming and great with dogs. She welcomed my pitbull like one of the family. Will definitely book again.

We had such a great experience with Naoko! She was incredibly attentive and caring with Pompom, especially since she’s a senior dog and needs extra attention. She kept us updated throughout the day, which really helped put my mind at ease. It’s not always easy leaving an older dog with someone new, but she made us feel completely comfortable and confident that Pompom was in good hands. We really appreciate how thoughtful and attentive she was and would definitely recommend her! Thank you Naoko! See you next time 🐶❤️

Naoko too such great care of our little frenchie, Momo. She sent messages, pictures, and video throughout Momo's visit, keeping us at ease knowing she is happy. Thank you, Naoko. We'll be sure to bring Momo back to you next time! Momoの写真とビデオを送って下さり、毎日の様子もメッセージを頂けて安心しました。また機会があれば是非ともお願いしたいです。ありがとうございました!

Naoko was so nice and accommodating. She sent updates and pictures of my boy. He was in the best hands. Thank you Naoko, will definitely book again :)

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Haru. Throughout every stay, Haru was cared for with so much patience, kindness. We always felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands.

Naoko sent great updates and pictures. We felt very co comfortable knowing our dog Douglas was well cared for :)

Schedule
I’m home most of the time, which allows me to provide dedicated care and attention to your pups. With a flexible schedule, I can easily accommodate their needs and ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a single-family home with a fenced yard where your dogs can safely enjoy the fresh air and relax. I’m happy to accommodate special requests as much as possible to ensure their stay is comfortable and stress-free.
A typical day
I provide personalized care by playing together and going on walks that match each dog’s preferred pace, distance, and energy level. I LOVE taking a walk with dogs!
