Safety, trust & environment
If you are boarding your dog at my house, I do ask for hyper allergenic types of dogs because I’m slightly allergic. And they can stay with me in my living room while I work and play with dog, or if you have special request they can stay in my fenced backyard too. If I do drop in, I’ll do what you ask.

Information Yichen M. would like to know about your pet
I’m slightly allergic so currently I can only host hyper allergenic dogs. But happy to do drop in and dog walk with non hyper allergenic dogs.
A typical day
My dog will be entertaining your dog all day. He’ll beg to play but also respect your dog’s boundaries by staying down. Usually that will tire out both dogs, then I’ll take a nap with all the pups and give them belly rubs. When the weather’s nice out, they can play in my fenced backyard. And if allowed I give some treats too.

Pet care experience
I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for small-to-medium pups and cats! Whether it’s zoomies in the park, cozy cuddle sessions, or slow blinks with shy kitties, I’m all about making pets feel loved, safe, and happy. Friends joke that animals just know I’m their person — probably because I treat every furry friend like family. Expect daily photo updates, silly captions, and plenty of attention to their routines and quirks. From playtime to belly rubs to perfectly timed treats, I’ll make sure your pet feels right at home (and maybe a little spoiled). I have some regular furry friends stay with me, it’s the best feeling to see the puppies come happy and leave happy. I’m grateful to have the parents’ trust to take care of their fur babies. I also give discount on recurring customer once you feel comfortable letting me watch your dog regularly.

Reviews

Excellent! Yichen was patient, reliable and communicative. I’d happily leave Coco with her again!

Yichen took great care of our dog while we were away for spring break. She kept sending us videos, pictures and messages of how our dog was doing. Our dog was very happy. Thank you, Yichen!


Yichen took wonderful care of our pups, Tori and Ryder. She was very attentive and loving, and sent thoughtful updates that gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend Yichen as a sitter.

I’m glad I found Yichen to board my dog. She sent daily updates of how my fur baby was doing and was very responsive. I can tell from the photos and videos that my dog was relaxed and was in good hands. I will be utilizing her services in the future. Thank you, Yichen and Ube!
