Cozy Home Boarding & Walks

I offer a calm, home-style boarding experience with only 1-2 dogs at a time for personalized care. I work from home, so pets get plenty of attention, daily walks, potty breaks, and companionship. I’m experienced with senior dogs, picky eaters, and helping pets feel comfortable in a new environment.

We had a wonderful experience! She took excellent care of George and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout his stay. George looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She was very responsible, patient, and attentive to his needs. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

We had an amazing experience with xiaoting while we were in the hospital delivering our baby. She was incredibly flexible with our changing dates and pickup timing, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during such an unpredictable time. She went above and beyond by preparing Mocha’s food when needed and kept us updated with frequent videos and messages throughout her stay. It was so reassuring to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Mocha was. When we needed to extend her stay unexpectedly, she was extremely accommodating and treated her like he was her own dog. We could truly see in every video how much love and attention Mocha received, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed her time there. We are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Amazing pet sitter. She took such good care of our dog, walking her twice a day and sending us picture updates. Thank you so much!

Xiaoting was an amazing host to our boy. We felt at ease knowing that our boy was so well cared for with daily updates including many photos and videos. We were anxious first time Rover users, but Xiaoting gave us great sense of comfort because we knew Louie was in such good hands. Xiaoting and her little daughter exceeded our expectations and beyond. One can really tell their love for animals. Xiaoting even picked up on our Louie’s quirky traits like how he‘s so attached to his leash and how he likes his kibbles soft soaked in water without us mentioning. I couldn’t recommend Xiaoting and her family enough. I’d trust her with our Louie anytime. Looking forward to booking her again in the future! p.s. I think Louie secretly misses Xiaoting and her family already although he loves being back home.

Schedule

I work from home. I’m able to provide constant care, attention and companionship throughout the day. Pets aren’t left alone and get plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and snuggles. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine, whether it’s a mid-morning walk or evening feeding. Your pet will always have someone nearby!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a calm, secure environment where they can relax and feel safe. I follow your care instructions closely, feeding schedules, leash rules, medications and routines, because consistency builds trust. In my home, pets are never left unattended for long, and I always do a safety check of the space. I use positive reinforcement, give plenty of love, and send regular updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me is all about keeping your pet happy, active and comfortable! We start with a morning potty break and a nice walk to get some energy out. During the day, we’ll have plenty of playtime, think tug-of-war, fetch, squeaky toys, or chasing a laser light if they enjoy it! I also provide mental stimulation through puzzle toys, light training, or treat games. There’s always time for cuddles, naps, and sticking to their usual routine. Whether they’re high-energy or a chill snuggled, I make sure every pet gets personalized care and attention from morning to night.

Please share any medical needs, allergies, behavior quirks, triggers, and how they react in new environments. I’d also love to know their daily routine, energy level, favorite toys, and any training commands you use. If your pet has separation anxiety, food sensitivities or needs medication, I can absolutely accommodate, it just helps to know in advance so I can give them the best care possible.
