We had a wonderful experience with Xianqin! She is very caring and responsive . Our dog enjoyed at least 2 hours of walks every day, and we loved receiving daily videos and updates. She always responded immediately and gave us complete peace of mind. Highly recommend!

This is the second time Xianqin took care of Toki and would ask her again in the future. Xianqin gave us peace of mind by proactively sending daily videos of Toki going on walks and eating to check in on us. She is highly responsive to messages and will accommodate flexible booking times. Thank you!

Absolutely Amazing Pet Sitter ❤️. Xianqin is so caring and attentive with my senior pup. She gave her food and meds as required and made sure she was happy, loved and well cared for in her care. Will definitely work with her again. Thank you for all the regular video updates and caring for my puppy.

Our senior dog had an amazing 2 weeks stay with Xianqin. Thank you so much for your kindness and taking such good care of Kudo. I really enjoyed all the video updates and we were able to have a worry free vacation. We will definitely reach out again for future time away.

🌟⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Shandy is an absolute Angel! She took exceptional care of my senior pup, expertly managing food and medication. The daily updates she sent were the highlight of my day - seeing my fur baby happy, comfortable, and loved in her home was priceless. Shandy's love and care for my precious pup are truly from the heart. I couldn't recommend her more highly for pet sitting services. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dedicated, Shandy is your person! 🙏❤️

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and a cozy, pet-friendly home where your small dog will feel safe and comfortable. I prioritize your pet’s well-being and can crate your dog if needed for safety or at your request. With a friendly dog of my own, your dog will have company or their own space, based on their comfort level.

Pets

A typical day

One of my favourite parts of pet sitting is taking dogs on long walks. They are the perfect excuse for me to get outside and explore the nice neighborhood. It’s a great way for both of us to get fresh air, exercise, and enjoy some peaceful time together.
