Pet care experience
* I won't accept your booking if you use prong collar or other tools in conflict with positive reinforcement training. Accidental bookings will be canceled immediately. Please let me know upfront and ask if you think your particular training tool and situation may or may not be OK for me. * my House Sitting / Boarding / Doggy Day Care rates are variable $190~$375 per night or day (except some super short half-day visits might be lower), depending on hours booked, hours needed for walks, hours needed at home, your dog or cat's exact needs, and in the case of House Sitting how clean and comfortable your place is for me to stay at. About: I volunteered on a weekly basis at renowned animal shelter the San Francisco SPCA from 2014 to 2020. At SF SPCA I was trained and qualified to walk dogs rated with the most challenging behaviours, including both timid dogs still building their confidence and high energy dogs still learning their manners, and generally more successful with the former. My main volunteer roles were dog photographer and walker. Now I offer my own professional pet photoshoots. See more on my Instagram @yinan147.
Reviews
Yinan is amazing! He’s super responsive and will definitely would recommend to anyone. He kept me up to date with my dog’s walk. Shared a tone of pictures
Amazing experience. Was super communicative which helped ease my anxious as this was my first rover booking! Lots of photos and details about my pup!
Great service, very professional and very good with my dogs. I even got some great professional pics
Yinan has been great with my 3 month old puppy. He is patient with Alfie and is very accommodating and flexible. I would highly recommend Yinan to anyone looking for care!

Information Yinan Q. would like to know about your pet
Your dog/cat's behaviours/personality if not already sufficiently described on his/her profile page. Your training goals and preferences if any. How flexible are the times in your booking request? Let me know a range of acceptable hours. The more flexible your requested times are the more likely I'll be able to book them and book them promptly. Drop-In Visits: What are the tasks during each visit? For example, add water and food, clean litter, playing with your cat. Walks / Drop-In Visits / House Sitting: I will need access to your wifi (with decent speed), for sending photos to you, and for general use in the case of House Sitting. House Sitting / Boarding / Doggy Day Care: Duration and schedule of walks and potty breaks each day (or during the booked hours in the case of short Doggy Day Care bookings)? How much at-home play time? Feeding schedule and quantity. Treats and toys info. Your dog's barking behaviour at home. Does your dog have any signalling behaviour if an unscheduled potty break is needed, e.g. sitting next to door?
A typical day
I'll give you dog/cat lots of attention, play, snuggle, and of course walks. When I'm working on my laptop he/she will be more than welcome to sit or sleep on my lap, or next to me on the couch, or by/on my foot under the desk. You'll receive lots of photos, sometimes too many as I've been told.

Availability
Schedule: Generally available everyday for walks and drop-in visits. I work from home (on my laptop, as UX UI designer and investor). My Rover calendar is pretty well kept up-to-date in terms of days unavailable due to travel or other reasons.
