Availability

I work full-time at Duke, so my schedule can be a little unpredictable. That said, I’m usually available on weekends, holidays, and during more flexible times in the winter and summer. I’m always happy to chat and see if I can accommodate your needs! For house sitting, I offer a 12-hour overnight stay to make sure your home and pets are well cared for, though it doesn’t include 24/7 coverage. Feel free to reach out anytime to check availability—thank you! 😊

Safety, trust & environment

I love caring for dogs in their own home, especially since my pup prefers to be the only dog in mine. I primarily offer drop-in visits and walks, but I may also be available for house sitting depending on my work schedule. Before starting any service, I’d love to connect and learn more about your dog. Every pup is unique, and understanding their habits, needs, and personality helps me provide the best care possible. Let’s work together to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! 🐾😊

Information Yuji K. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special needs or health concerns. Knowing these details helps me give them the best care and keep them happy, comfortable, and safe! 🐾

A typical day

I’ll tailor each visit to your dog’s energy and personality—whether that means long walks, games of fetch, or just quiet cuddle time. Whatever they enjoy most, I’ll make sure they feel happy, loved, and cared for! 🐾

I treat every pet like family—always patient, reliable, and attentive to their routine. Whether it’s lots of play, gentle senior care, or puppy potty breaks, I’ve got it covered. Specialties include: 🐾 Puppy care & training support 🐾 Senior dog care & medication reminders 🐾 Active dogs who love long walks Your dog’s happiness and safety are always my top priority! 🐶💛

Yuji took great care of my pets while I was gone. He is responsible and on time. The most important character is that he communicates well. Ultimately, he is a reliable individual.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
