Always happier when dogs are around
Pet care experience
I love spending time with dogs!! Our lovely pup Mochi has been in our lives for about 5 years. He was very traumatized when we initially met. He wouldn't let anyone pet him, he had a lot of separation anxiety, it was very hard for him to eat, poop, etc. Seeing the transformation he went through to become more loving and trusting still brings tears to my eyes. I even taught him bunch of tricks and commands like 'stay' and 'leave it.' During this process I learned to be patient and look for clues in a dog's behavior about what they need. I learned to be compassionate when they are acting out. Acting out usually means an unmet need; dogs are very good at communicating when they need something! Caring for Mochi is one of the best parts of my day and I can't wait to love your pup as well!
Reviews
Amazing and so communicative!!
Yasemin was very responsive and easy pick-up & drop off. She watched our Cookie for the day and definitely would use her again.
Yasemin was great! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog at her home. Yasemin took good care of my little old man and was always quick to respond to any communication. We would definitely use her again.
Yasemin did a wonderful job dogsitting our old Beagle. He's got some old dog quirks and medications, and she was attentive and helpful. Our dog seemed very relaxed staying with her and her dog Mochi. We'll definitely be back. Thanks Yasemin!

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced patio with some grass area that the dogs can play/go potty. We live less than a block from the beach so beach time is always an option. Mochi absolutely loves other dogs and is very patient with dogs that are timid. There is a dog door separating the bedroom+hallway from the rest of the apartment in case dogs need to be separated when eating, etc.
Home
Information Yasemin Y. would like to know about your pet
Any allergies, medications, diet schedule, walking needs, vaccinations, house-trained or not, etc. Its also good to know the dogs temperament (do they like to play and be around people or want to be in a corner by themselves). Lastly if the dog can be off leash, if they can be taken do a dog park.
A typical day
I like to take the dogs either on the beach or by the Venice Canals. There are always other dogs around if your dog needs some socialization. I love going to the dog parks (there is a dog park 8 min walking distance from my place!) or for a more chill walk I prefer the quiet streets by Abbot Kinney. I like teaching dogs new tricks (if they are up for it!) and play. Mochi (our dog) loves to join us when we put some music and dance!

Availability
I work part time and my partner goes to an office full time. Our schedules alternate so there is usually someone at home most times. When we aren’t working, we like to go on hikes, to the beach/parks since most of our friends also have dogs.
