Pet care experience

🐾 OFFER DISCOUNTS 🐾

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 great. Our cat loved her and she was very communicative sending pics and videos. She was also great with following instructions. Will definitely use Yana again.

Yana did an excellent job looking after my cat while I was on vacation. She was consistent in her arrival times, prompt in her communication, and took extra time to play with my cat, who seemed to warm up to her very quickly. She also sent adorable photos of my cat eating and playing. The instructions for house key drop off were clear and easy to follow. I highly recommend and will be booking again in future.

Yana is amazing. She has a great way with dogs. Our dog was very happy with Yana and he immediately felt at ease. Yana also takes many pictures of the dog as she takes care of him. Great communication, care and professionalism.

Super attentive and super responsive, and everything left super nice and clean. I expected only two out of three of the kitters to come out and say hello, which isn't unusual for my third who's much more people shy, but the boys took to Yana nearly immediately. Otis was showing his belly by Day 2. And if that's not a good sign, I don't know what is. 😊 Highly recommend Yana if you're looking for someone to check up on your furbabies.
