Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced puppy raiser
I used to be a service dog puppy raiser, so I have experience working with puppies on their house behaviors, potty training, basic obedience and socialization skills. I live in an apartment complex with a courtyard, 2 dog parks in the neighborhood, and 2 big playgrounds/ open area. The beach is just 3 minutes away from my place, so I can also take your pup for a walk alongside the beach! I can also provide grooming/ shower services if needed!
Cat care experience
Yan also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
My pup had a great stay with Yan, she is very communicative and responsive, she will update with daily pictures. Would recommend 100% to other pet owners :)
A+ Great communication and care!
Yan did incredibly with Otto! He can be a very nervous dog and she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy while respecting his boundaries. I would definitely recommend Yan.
Yan and Edith were great with Ellie! She instantly seemed comfortable with them, and walked off loose leash when we dropped her off. We were traveling internationally and Yan put us at ease, sending pictures and updates of Ellie daily. We got a little cute polaroid as well. On top of all that there's a dog park and a lot of well maintained green space at their place. Ellie had a ton of fun! Would definitely recommend and re-book with Yan.
Otto can be a very nervous little guy, but Yan and her roommate were very patient and understanding and went above and beyond to make sure Otto was happy and comfortable. Would definitely book with Yan again!
Yan was a perfect sitter for our puppy Lyra! She was attentive and so communicative. We got updates with pictures every day and always brought up anything she would notice. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants their puppy to have lots of fun and be well taken care of. We will definitely be keeping Lyra with Yan next time we’re out of town!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Caring for pets is something I truly love—it brings me joy, and I take it seriously! My goal is always the same: to keep them safe, happy, and feeling completely loved. In my home, your pet will enjoy a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space where they’re treated like family. I provide lots of playtime, affection, and personalized attention based on your pet’s unique needs. Whether they’re full of energy and love to run around or prefer quiet cuddles and naps, I make sure they feel comfortable and at ease. I also provide daily updates, including photos and videos, so you never have to wonder how they’re doing!
A typical day
I offer daily dog walks, fun and structured play sessions, and lots of affection and downtime when they need to recharge. For more active pups, we’ll head to the local dog park for socialization and exercise—or stay in and play an enthusiastic game of fetch in the yard or hallway! I’m also a big believer in mental stimulation, so I’ll often include puzzle toys, treat games, or basic obedience refreshers for a little extra challenge.
