About Xiaoyuan & William ⭐ Boutique Luxury Home Boarding & Daycare 🎓 Berklee College of Music Graduate & Musician 🏆 Certified Professional Pet Sitter | Fear Free Certified Professional | Pet CPR & First Aid Certified 🎓 Karen Pryor Academy Dog Trainer Foundations 🐾 12+ Years of Dog Care Experience ⸻ Welcome! Hi! I’m Krystal (Xiaoyuan), a Berklee College of Music graduate, musician, Certified Professional Pet Sitter, and full-time dog caregiver. To be honest, I never imagined becoming a professional pet sitter. Growing up, I always dreamed of having a dog but never had the opportunity. When I finally welcomed my own dog, Mina, into my life, I realized caring for dogs brought me more happiness than I had ever expected. What started as helping friends and family with their pets gradually became my passion—and eventually my full-time career. Today, I truly feel fortunate to wake up every day doing something I genuinely love. Pet care isn’t just my job—it’s the career I’ve chosen for the long term. ⸻ Professional Care, Always Learning Because I love dogs so much, I wanted to become more than someone who simply watches pets. I wanted to become someone owners could completely trust. That’s why I’ve earned professional certifications including: ✔ Certified Professional Pet Sitter ✔ Fear Free Certified Professional ✔ Pet CPR & First Aid Certified ✔ Karen Pryor Academy Dog Trainer Foundations Learning never stops. I continue studying canine behavior, body language, enrichment, nutrition, grooming, and training because every new skill helps me provide safer, happier, and more personalized care. As a Berklee-trained musician, I’m also passionate about exploring how music can create a calm and relaxing environment for dogs. My dream is to continue combining music and pet care throughout my career. ⸻ Why Families Choose Us Together with my partner William, we provide a boutique home boarding experience where every dog is treated like family—not just another booking. We intentionally keep our boarding small so every guest receives plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care. ✔ Boutique home boarding ✔ Nearly 24/7 supervision ✔ Daily photo & video updates ✔ Personalized care ✔ Calm home environment—not a kennel ✔ Meet & Greets encouraged ⸻ A Family That Truly Loves Dogs One of the things that makes our care unique is that we’re a team. I’m a full-time professional pet sitter. My partner, William, works remotely most of the week and is only in the office 1–2 days, so he’s home much of the time. My mother, who also loves dogs and has years of hands-on experience caring for them, often helps us as well. Because of this, there’s almost always someone home providing supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love. Your dog won’t simply stay with a sitter—they’ll become part of our family. ⸻ More Than Boarding—It’s a Vacation We believe boarding should never feel like boarding. It should feel like your dog’s own vacation. Every dog is different. Some love running and playing. Others prefer quiet walks, naps, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby. Rather than following the same routine for every guest, we pay close attention to your dog’s personality, emotions, energy level, and comfort throughout the day. We adjust activities based on how they’re feeling while always respecting your instructions, preferences, and daily routine. There is no one-size-fits-all schedule here. We simply do what is best for your dog. ⸻ Music, Enrichment & Everyday Joy We believe dogs deserve more than basic care. Depending on your dog’s personality and your preferences, their stay may include: 🐾 Daily walks 🌳 Large grassy field adventures 🎾 Playtime & enrichment 🦴 Healthy homemade treats (with owner approval) 🛁 Gentle brushing and relaxing massages 🎹 Soft piano music throughout the home ❤️ Plenty of cuddles and companionship Every day is designed around helping your dog feel happy, comfortable, and at home. ⸻ Meet Our Resident Dog, Mina Mina, our Shiba Inu, is the heart of our home. She has a calm, respectful personality and naturally gives other dogs space. She’s especially wonderful with shy, senior, or first-time boarding dogs because she never overwhelms them. Many visiting pups become her friend before they go home. ⸻ Safety & Peace of Mind Your dog’s safety and happiness will always be our highest priorities. ✔ Nearly 24/7 supervision ✔ Personalized feeding, medication, and care routines ✔ Fear Free handling techniques ✔ Pet CPR & First Aid Certified ✔ Secure apartment community ✔ Daily photo & video updates ✔ No aggressive dogs accepted Because we care for only a small number of dogs at a time, we’re able to notice even the smallest changes in behavior, appetite, or mood and provide individualized attention throughout the day. ⸻ Our Promise Every dog deserves to feel safe, understood, and loved. When your dog stays with us, they’re not simply being boarded-they become part of our family. Our goal is to create a true home-away-from-home where every stay feels like a vacation, every experience is personalized, and every owner enjoys complete peace of mind. We’re also excited to build long-term relationships with families looking for a trusted sitter their dogs will be happy to return to again and again. We can’t wait to welcome your furry family member into our home. ❤️🐾
