Pet care experience

Hi there! 👋🏻 I’ve always had pets growing up as a child, and my love for them has only grown stronger into my adulthood. I have a passion for learning about and understanding all types of animals. My experience in pet care comes from caring for my own pets, helping family and friends, and volunteering over the years. Additionally, my mom owns a dog shelter where I’m constantly involved, and I also foster dogs from a local shelter 🐕 This passion has naturally evolved into my career as a pet sitter and dog walker, where I get to spend my days caring for animals and giving them the attention and love they deserve. I believe every pet has its own personality, and I love discovering what makes each one unique, building trust and a special bond with them. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing a pet’s happy face after a long walk or a day of companionship

Yana was so great! She made it a smooth process and Reggie seemed to enjoy all the attention and outing with her. He’s not a walker but she accommodated us and made it a fun time anyway. All her questions actually put me at ease and made me feel more comfortable that safety was very important to her. Thank you Yana!!!

Great pet lover and care taker! She really made it very easy, and safe to say my doggo definitely had a great time!

Yana was so amazing! She kept me updated with photos and my dog was already comfortable with her on his first walk. I will definitely be hiring again!!

Amazing job taking care of our pup Niko! We were desperate for a last minute walker, and she did amazing! She kept us in the loop, provided many pictures, and was very thorough with her report afterward. Would recommend her to anyone!

Information Yana M. would like to know about your pet

• What do I need to know before I take your pup for a walk? • Do they have any history of aggression? • Is your pet aggressive when meeting someone new? • How will I have access to enter the house? • Do I need to feed your pup before/after walk? • Does your pet have any allergies/medications or any other important things to be aware of?

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. I will play fetch with them and I could also teach them tricks? Let me know any local spots you like to take them to, and I'll be sure to give them the best day ever!
