Highlights
Pet care experience
UBC Animal Bio | Vet Assistant
I’m a UBC Applied Animal Biology graduate, Veterinary Assistant, and Rover Star Sitter with a strong background in animal behaviour, welfare, nutrition, and hands-on animal care. I’m also certified in Pet First Aid & CPR. I have over a year of experience caring for dogs, six years with cats, and three years keeping reptiles. Through Rover, I’ve cared for pets with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and comfort levels—from active dogs that enjoy longer walks to shy or cautious pets that need more time and space. Working in a veterinary hospital has strengthened my ability to notice changes in behaviour, appetite, energy, mobility, bathroom habits, and overall comfort. I’m also very mindful of safe handling, cleanliness, and keeping pets as calm and comfortable as possible. I follow each pet’s usual routine closely and never force interaction. During walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m active and enjoy being outdoors, so I’m happy to provide engaging walks and age-appropriate exercise. Most importantly, I want each pet to feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
Because I currently have a cat at home, I do not offer boarding services in my own home. Instead, I focus on providing care in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their regular routines. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so I can provide care that is tailored to them. Whether that means energetic walks, play sessions, feeding routines, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I always prioritize the pet’s comfort, safety, and well-being. I enjoy outdoor activities and have reliable transportation, allowing me to take dogs on walks in a variety of environments and, with the owner’s permission, visits to dog parks for exercise and socialization. I am attentive to animal behavior and body language and always monitor pets closely to ensure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I also provide regular photo and message updates so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.
Ratings and reviews
We felt confident and assured leaving our senior dog with Yue for the weekend. We appreciated all the updates and communication as well and would hire him again in the future.
Yue is great! He is incredibly kind and communicative. He updated us regularly throughout the weekend and asked questions if there was any uncertainty. He’s a stellar person with a big heart. Pip was in good hands! I’d highly recommend him to anyone and will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much, Yue!
This was my first experience using a dog walker, and Yue completely put my mind at ease. As a pet parent, it’s natural to feel anxious when you’re away from your dog, but Yue understood that from the start. He was incredibly proactive, keeping me updated throughout the walk with photos and messages, so I always knew what my dog was up to. I genuinely trust him with my pets. If you’re a pet parent who’s nervous about booking a dog walker or sitter for the first time, I can’t recommend Yue enough.
Yue was great with my dog Arvo! He kept me informed and was very friendly to provide me updates during his walks and playtime! Happy to recommend anyone looking for a sitter/walker for any pets.
What a great experience having Yue cat sit for me. I got so many great photos from him and humorous insights in their days. When I came home the place was beautifully clean and the cats were relaxed and constant. I can’t figure out how to post photos - I’d love to share the video if Yue walking through the neighbourhood meowing, which is one way I call my cats! What commitment to the job!
Yue has been fantastic with Monica! By their second walk together, Monica was already excited to see him and completely comfortable around him. It’s clear that he has a natural way with dogs and takes the time to build trust with them. He is reliable, communicative, and always provides great updates, photos, and videos during the walk. Knowing Monica is happy, safe, and enjoying herself gives us real peace of mind. We love seeing how much she enjoys spending time with Yue and would happily recommend him to other pet parents.

Schedule
Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine alongside my work as a Veterinary Assistant. My schedule remains flexible, and I plan my Rover bookings around my work schedule so I can give each pet the time and attention they need. I’m available for walks, and house sitting throughout the week, including weekends, and I make sure I can maintain each pet’s usual feeding, exercise, potty, and care routine before accepting a booking.
