Pet care experience

I might like dogs more than humans!

I went to college hoping to become a veterinarian but ended up going down a different path. However, my love for animals remains the same. I have had dogs growing up since I was very young. One of my dogs is a whopping 17 years old but still alive and healthy. I have raised her since she was a month old, and I still love holding her like a baby to transport her around to this day as it is hard for her to walk. I have also done extensive volunteering at animal shelters, caring for both dogs and cats. I absolutely love animals, even more than people sometimes. Also, our backyard is huge for any active dogs!

I can’t say enough great things! He was incredibly professional, communicative, patient, and attentive the entire time. You can tell he genuinely loves animals and takes what he does seriously. Pepper absolutely adored him, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated the updates, care, and overall kindness throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend!

Straightforward communication, nice quiet area and plenty of space for our Pomeranian to play and roam. We’d recommend these sitters to anyone in the area.

Our little dachshund had a wonderful time. They were kind, attentive, and communicated very well. I could tell she warmed up quickly and felt at home. Will come back again. Thank you Simon and Shaoying!

Shaoying Y. watched our 15 years old Shih Tzu for one week while we were on a cruise trip. She is super friendly and updated us throughout the week.

Schedule

I currently work remotely with plenty of time to take care of pets as my job is very relaxing and not busy. I also have plenty of help around the house since my family members are also available to take care of pets as they often take care of our own when I am not available.

Safety, trust & environment

I have the upmost respect for your furry family members. With my senior dog, I carry her around since it is hard for her to walk. I even go as far as feeding her water with a plastic syringe since it is difficult for her to stoop down and drink water due to her bad arthritis (she is currently on medications for it). You can expect that I would care for your pet just the same as I know how important they are to you. I am also a home owner and hate when people disrespect and dirty my home, so you can guarantee I would not do that to you.

Pets

A typical day

Depending on whether your pet is high or low energy, I enjoy playing fetch and chasing since that also gives me a chance to exercise. For the more chill pets, I enjoy holding and cuddling them.
