Super nice dog walker and strong recommend
This was Prince’s second stay, and it just confirmed how safe and loved he is with her family. She, her husband, and their little one are all so gentle and welcoming. It truly feels like Prince is part of their home when he’s there. I’m grateful to have a sitter I can trust. Thank you Shiyao and Family 😊
Shiyao did an amazing job with Willow! Willow had so much fun and got lots of stimulation, walks, and adventures while in her care. She came home happy and completely tired out. Shiyao sent lots of photos and kept up excellent communication throughout the stay. She was also able to pick Willow up from our house, which made everything super convenient. I would book with her again!
Prince adored his stay. She was incredibly sweet with him and treated him like her own, even letting him snuggle up in bed. We’ll absolutely have her care for Prince again.
SHIYAO was an amazing dog sitter. She was so loving, sweet, and patient with Tito, and always made sure he felt comfortable and at home. She sent lots of pictures and videos, which made me feel constantly connected and reassured. Her husband is also very lovely, and together they created a warm, caring environment. If anyone truly loves and cares for pets, it’s Shiyao. I also love that she welcome us to her house in the first meeting to know where Tito will spend his time there, I found this unique and trustworthy. I will definitely contact her again in the future. 🐶💛
Jenga Daycare is amazing. Very responsible and always quick to respond. I feel comfortable and trust her completely. My dog loves her, her family, and the place. She is always so happy and excited, and even looks forward to going to daycare. I will definitely be a regular client. Highly recommend.❤️❤️

Schedule
Caring for pets brings me joy. With a flexible WFH schedule, I can give your cat the gentle, loving care they deserve—any day of the week.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When I visit your home, I care for your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. For drop-in visits, I follow your routine closely—feeding, fresh water, litter box cleanup or potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet companionship, depending on what your cat or dog needs. For dog walks, I make sure your pup gets fresh air, exercise, and a moment of joy. I walk at their pace, always with safety and comfort in mind. Every visit is calm, respectful, and tailored to your pet’s personality. My goal is to help them feel safe and loved while you’re away.
Pets
A typical day
It all depends on your pet’s personality and energy level! For cats, I love engaging in gentle play—wand toys, feather chasers, or just letting them “hunt” treats. I also give them time to cuddle or quietly relax if that’s what they prefer. For dogs, walks are a time to explore, sniff, and enjoy the fresh air at their pace. During drop-ins, I can play fetch, give belly rubs, or just keep them company with some calm one-on-one time. Whether playful or shy, every pet gets my full attention and care.

- It’s important for me to know your pet’s daily routine, personality, energy level, and any medical needs or behavioral concerns. I’d also love to hear what they enjoy—favorite toys, treats, or any special habits—so I can make them feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away.
