Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Whether I’m at home with my own cats or looking after a friend’s dog, it blends easily into my daily rhythm. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and presence they deserve—whether that means walks, feeding, or simply hanging out and keeping them company.

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m walking your dog, I treat it like their time to enjoy the world—lots of sniffing, steady pacing, and checking in with how they’re feeling. I’m always alert, use secure gear, and steer clear of anything that might stress them out. No distractions, just full attention on your pup. If I’m staying in your home, I try to keep everything feeling familiar and calm. I follow your pet’s routine closely—meals, meds, play, or just chill time—and stay mindful of how they’re doing emotionally, too. I move gently through your space and treat both your home and your pet with care and respect, like I would my own.

Reliable Care with Heart

Pet care experience

Animals seem to naturally feel safe around me—maybe it’s my calm energy or my soft voice. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all ages, including shy rescues, energetic puppies, and slow-moving seniors. I pay close attention to their body language, routines, and needs, and I always approach each pet with patience, presence, and respect. I’ve taken care of friends’ dogs and cats many times—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, giving meds, or just being there for extra cuddles. I’m especially attuned to each pet’s energy and comfort level, which helps even shy or anxious pets feel safe with me. I also have cats of my own, so I know how important routine, gentleness, and trust are. What sets me apart is my ability to create a quiet, comforting space for pets to feel secure while their humans are away. I don’t just “watch” them—I keep them company, help them regulate, and make sure they feel loved and safe.

Xiaomei was great! Super responsive, sent cute photo updates, and took awesome care of my dog. Highly recommend Xiaomei if you're looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly attentive to your pet's needs. I’ll definitely book again in the future!

Xiaomei is calm, kind, and super dependable. She helped walk my dog when I had a crazy week at work, and I could tell he felt totally relaxed with her. She’s the kind of person who takes her time and pays attention—not just checking boxes.

Xiaomei has looked after both my dog and she’s been great every time. She’s patient, clean, respectful, and really good at noticing how the animals are feeling. No fuss, no drama—just solid, thoughtful care.

Xiaomei took amazing care of my senior cat while I was away for a week. She was patient, attentive, and kept a close eye on his eating and behavior. She also regularly sent me sweet photo updates, which made me feel completely at ease. I’ve also seen how dogs light up around her—she has this calm, grounded presence that animals trust instantly. Whether it’s slow walks, playtime, or just sitting quietly with a shy pet, she tunes into their needs with real care. I’d trust her with any animal, any time.
