Availability

I stay at home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I take dogs out for walks, feed them, and spend time with them every day. I only accept a small number of dogs so I can give each pet plenty of attention and care.

Safety, trust & environment

Home-style care in Castro Valley. Only 1–2 dogs at a time, never more than a small pack — so every visitor gets personal attention and a calm, consistent routine. Quiet indoor spaces to nap, multiple walks outside each day, and free meet-and-greets before any stay. I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more since 2018 and specialize in small and medium dogs under 45 lb.

Information Yan G. would like to know about your pet

Please share anything that helps me care well: feeding schedule, allergies, medications, reactivity toward other dogs or strangers, noise sensitivities, and any routines your dog relies on. I work best with small and medium dogs under 45 lb, especially calmer temperaments. Every stay starts with a free meet-and-greet so your dog can settle here before you leave.

A typical day

I walk dogs daily, play with them, and spend quality time helping them relax and feel comfortable. Depending on each dog’s personality, I adjust the level of activity—active dogs get more playtime, while older or more sensitive dogs enjoy a calmer, gentle routine with plenty of care and attention.

Pet care experience

I have been providing home-style dog boarding and pet care since 2017, with over 9 years of hands-on experience. I also worked for two years at a professional dog boarding and daycare facility in San Francisco and have experience in animal rescue. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, especially puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs with anxiety or special needs. What sets me apart is my small, home-based care approach. I only accept 1–2 dogs at a time, which allows me to provide full attention, a calm environment, and truly personalized care for each dog. I am patient and attentive, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
