My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I I usually wake up early, so I don't mind an early walk or feeding schedule. I typically go to bed around 11pm-midnight, but I am happy to work around a pet's schedule, especially to accommodate any medications or weather.

Safety, trust & environment

I was raised to leave things better than I found them, so I always do a thorough clean before I leave a petsitting gig (including washing sheets, so you can go straight to bed!) I can also bring in mail and water plants if you give me a watering schedule.

Information Yazmeen M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any rooms or surfaces that the pets or I shouldn't go on. Also, I'd love to know any behaviors I should look out for, so I can continue any training you like to do at home. It's also important to know how your pet feels around other animals (especially dogs), so I'm prepared for any walks. I've learned lots of tips and tricks over the years for pets who are scared of thunder or have separation anxiety. And of course, I'd love to know your pets favorite toys!!

A typical day

I love to go on walks and explore the local area! It's always fun to see the sights with a furry friend. I love little toys, fetch, and anything outside. I also tend to brush pets with lots of fur every few days. In my free time, I loooove to do puzzles and play guitar. Sometimes the pets will join in 😂

Pet care experience

Hey! I'm Yazmeen. I've been petsitting for the last 8 years. I started with my sister and continued on my own. I have experience giving medication and with senior dogs as well as kittens. I love a long walk if the dog is up for it, and I'm always down to play and snuggle. Let me know if you're interested!

Yazmeen follow all the directions I left and that dogs really like her. It was our first time having someone come to our house to check on the dogs and feed them instead of boarding. It went so smoothly we will definitely request her again. Thank you Yazmeen!

Flexible with my fluctuating schedule and needs, great at adapting, and my doggy loves her.

Yazmeen has watched my dog and cat for over 6 years. She is very responsible and puts me at ease knowing the person is looking after my pets as if they are her own. I would highly recommend her for any type of pet care.

Yazmeen is an absolute gem! She cared for my two cats like they were her own—giving them love, attention, and playtime while respecting their unique personalities. I especially appreciated the daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!"
