I have plenty of availability throughout the week—including mornings and afternoons—as well as on weekends. Whether your furry friend needs a midday walk, multiple drop-in visits, or overnight care, I can easily adjust my hours to match their normal routine. This flexibility means I can be there for your pets right when they need me!

About Yimei X.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When I am taking care of pets in a client's home, I am extremely respectful of their space and meticulously follow all instructions provided regarding feeding, medication, and house rules. I make sure doors and gates are secure before and after walks. If providing care in my own home, I ensure a calm, hazard-free environment. I believe in sending frequent updates and photos, so you always have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and well cared for.
Information Yimei X. would like to know about your pet
To make sure your pet has the best time possible, I’d love to get the scoop on a few things ahead of time: • The Menu: Any allergies or special treats they’re obsessed with (or not allowed to have)? • Personality & Quirks: Do they have any funny habits? For example, is your dog a "squirrel chaser" on walks, or does your cat have a secret hiding spot I should know about? • Routine: Are there any "no-go" zones in the house or specific commands they’re used to? • Emergency Info: Just to be safe, please share your vet’s contact info and any medical needs. The more I know about their little personality, the more I can make them feel like I'm just an old friend stopping by!
A typical day
I’m all about making sure your furry friends feel loved and happy while you’re away! My visits usually start with the basics—fresh water, food, and a quick "how are you doing?" check-in. For the pups: We’ll head out for a fun walk to sniff all the good spots, then have some playtime with their favorite toys. If they’re more of a couch potato, I’m totally happy to provide all the belly rubs and cuddles they want! For the kitties: Having a cat myself, I’m a pro at reading their mood. Whether they want a high-energy session with a feather wand or just someone to sit nearby while they nap, I’ve got them covered. I’ll always send you plenty of cute photos and updates throughout the day, so you can see exactly how much fun they’re having!

Reliable & Compassionate Pet Care
Pet care experience
I have 3 years of pet care experience, fueled by a lifelong love for animals and background in animal rescue volunteering. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I am highly adaptable to their specific needs—whether that means high-energy playtime, long walks, or just quiet companionship. I take my responsibilities very seriously, ensuring pets are properly fed, exercised, and given plenty of affection while their owners are away. You can count on me to be a communicative and trustworthy sitter who will treat your pets like family.

Reviews
Yimei went above and beyond when she watched our American Bully. Our dog is shy and timid when walking. We booked Yimei for 3 drop-in visits per day for 6 days. Yimei was able to get our bully exercise for the full hour and also give her oral meds and ear wash. Will book again!
Was great with my pup! would definitely have her back again!
Yimei was GREAT. Highly recommend. She went above and beyond taking care of Lucy, my 15 year old very needy cat! Lucy was very well taken care of. Yimei also communicated promptly after every visit.
Times did a wonderful job walking our two dogs mostly while we were at work. She was on time, made sure our home was secure and the dogs were well cared for. Rudy and Dasher both said they loved spending time with her! We will definitely use her again!
