Pet care experience

Compassionate & Reliable Dog Lover

Hi! I’m a professional photographer based in the Bay Area. I work primarily from home, where I spend a lot of time editing photos, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m experienced with dogs and always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just relaxing at home, I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated regularly. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I’d love to meet you and your pup!

John’s place was excellent for Milo! Thanks so much. Milo enjoyed spending time with John and Dumbo and playing with toys. Songkun was able to accommodate a late schedule change request which really helped me. Milo will be happy to be at SongKun next time again!

Songkun is very good at this!! We needed a last minute, knowledgeable dog sitter to take in our special guy with a lot of open variables. Not sure about many of the details that're usually ironed out before a booking starts. Songkun was very relaxed, confident and reassuring about rolling with the uncertainty. He worked with us to make the booking with ability to adjust if needed (we ended up extending the stay). Our dog was quickly made to feel one of the family with him, all of his needs being met without delay, professionally and with great care. It was a relief to feel totally confident our dog was in good, capable hands from start to finish. Our guy returned from Songkun's home well fed, consistently exercised and totally happy from a pleasant vacation from his usual day to day. We also appreciated his assistance providing written updates with photos and videos during the stay. We will absolutely board with Songkun again if the situation arises. If you're in his area, do yourself a favor and book with Songkun!

Songkun was a great sitter, calm, caring and easy to communicate with. During the first two days of his stay my dog had some GI problems, even inside the house accidents ( probably because of the anxiety), but Songkun handled all of that very calmly, never complained, rather tried to figure out how to make my dog comfortable. Thank you!

Songkun was great with our dog, Van. He did his best to make sure Van had a great and comfortable stay (he's getting old and more grumpy!). Got beautiful pics and frequent updates from Songkun. We knew Van was in good hands.

We had a great experience with Songkun. He is reliable, communicative, and very attentive. We especially appreciated the lovely photos of Luna while we were away. Would happily book again and highly recommend.

Schedule

As a Master's student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care seamlessly into my routine. I prioritize time management and can allocate specific slots during the day for dog walking and care. Additionally, I have breaks between classes and study sessions where I can dedicate focused attention to pets. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening strolls, I ensure that your furry companion receives the care and attention they need throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

In providing dog walking services, my primary focus is on ensuring the safety, building trust with both pets and their owners, and fostering a positive environment for the dogs under my care. I prioritize safety by choosing routes that are safe and well-suited for dogs, avoiding busy roads and areas that might be stressful or dangerous for them. Trust is key, so I maintain transparent communication with pet owners, providing regular updates during walks, and adhering strictly to their preferences and instructions. I am committed to creating a nurturing environment during our walks, paying close attention to each dog's behavior and comfort levels, and always being prepared with essentials like water, waste bags, and treats. My approach is always adaptable, recognizing the unique needs and personalities of each dog, ensuring they have a stimulating, enjoyable, and above all, safe walking experience.
