Information Yin L. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs ahead of time—like feeding schedules, medications, allergies, or quirks (like fear of loud noises or not getting along with other pets). I also like to know their favorite toys, how they do on walks, and any commands they’re used to. The more I know, the better I can make them feel safe and at home.

A typical day

It depends on the pet's personality and energy level, but I love taking dogs on walks, playing fetch, and spending quality time with them—whether it’s tug-of-war, belly rubs, or just relaxing together. For cats, I enjoy interactive toys and gentle playtime. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, engaged, and loved while they’re with me.

Yin was amazing with our cat Marshmallow. Drop-off and pick-up were seamless. She sent us updates and cute pictures during our trip, and even found a great new toy for him (which she gifted us!). Marshmallow needed meds, and Yin took care of that no problem. Would absolutely recommend!

Kristine was AMAZING! She took wonderful care of our dog Tug and left the house in perfect condition. She was very communicative and sent tons of pictures and videos each day so we could relax knowing his care schedule was being closely followed and he was happy and comfortable with her. We will definitely be booking Kristine again!

We had a wonderful experience with Kristin. She took excellent care of Leo, including administering his medications, following his specific feeding routine, and visiting him multiple times each day. She followed all our instructions carefully and treated him with so much patience and kindness. I would highly recommend her!

Yin was amazing with our boxer for a long weekend. She took amazing photos of him all around the city. She was very responsive and responsible. Very easy to coordinate everything. Highly recommend!
