Highlights
Pet care experience
Genuine, enthusiastic animal lover
***Current availability: I work full-time on weekdays, and will typically have to be in office or commuting (away from the home) from 7:30 am - 4:30 pm. Therefore for house sits during the week, I can only accept pets that can be left alone for ~9 hours. On weekends, I'm usually available all day.*** Hello! I go by Tracy (preferred) or Yin (legal, required by Rover on sitter profiles), both are fine. :) Growing up, I've never had pets of my own due to restrictions at home, so I took every opportunity possible to pay my neighbours' and friends' furry companions visits, as well as volunteering at animal shelters and rescues. I am a huge animal lover who enjoys working with all kinds of pets! With dogs, I have experience walking and house sitting for all types of dogs, from larger breeds like Chow Chows to mid-sized Golden Retrievers to small pups like Pomeranians. I am organized, diligent, detail-oriented, and able to provide consistent care for pups that like to be on a schedule. I have plenty of experience caring for dogs that need oral medication. I'm still learning a lot about doggy behaviours and am not a professional trainer, but I'm extremely good at following instructions and am confident in paying attention to the different needs of each individual dog. I have a lot more experience with cats, having cat-sit for friends on vacations (longest up to 2 months), and I am currently a volunteer at a Vancouver cat rescue with the role of caring for the kitties in our rescue centre before they go on to foster or forever homes. Again I'm very patient with plenty of experience caring for more skittish/fractious/anxious cats. In terms of more exotic pets, I also have experience with rats, chinchillas, snakes, and lizards.

Ratings and reviews
Yin stayed with our cat over the weekend and was very communicative, polite with our space, and attentive to Nari. She played with her a lot and sent us tons of photos. I think our cat was spoiled with love!
Yin is communicative, responsible and dependable as usual. Thanks so much for taking care of our old girl!
Yin’s second stay with my cats- she was just as attentive and I really appreciated how much she wanted to get to know their individual personalities and connect with them. Will definitely book again when future needs arise.
Yin is a pleasure to deal with. She took great care of my cats and is enthusiastic to learn all about them and their individual personalities. Have already rebooked with her and would recommend to others!
Thank you so much Yin for looking after our little chinchilla yet again! This is our third chin-sitting session with Yin and we could not be happier. Little beast received the best care and a had great time with Yin. We will definitely be asking Yin to sit Pushinka again and again. Thank you Yin for taking such a loving care of the chinchilla and our garden too!
Tracy was amazing! She took such great care of our girl, Juno, keeping us updated with photos and details about her behavior, appetite, and took the time to play with her too (letting it all be on Juno’s terms). She also went the extra mile with the sweetest little photo shoot with decorations while we were away getting married for the weekend. This was our first time using Rover, so we were nervous about leaving both our pet and our home with someone we didn’t know, but those worries faded almost immediately. After the first day, we knew Juno was in excellent hands with Tracy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and Tracy will absolutely be our first call whenever we need a cat sitter again. We can’t recommend her highly enough!
