Pet care experience

Your babies need a vacation too!

Heading out of town and your regular sitter isn’t available? I’m here to help! Whether you’re looking for a new go-to sitter, a reliable backup, or planning ahead for specific dates—I’ve got you covered. I’m now more available on Rover than ever (a big shift from my previously limited schedule!), and I couldn’t be more excited. Working mostly from home gives me the flexibility to be fully present and hands-on with the pets I care for. 📸 Want to hear from pet parents I’ve worked with? You’ll find real testimonials right in my photo gallery. Let’s connect—I’d love to meet you and your fur family! A little about me - As a life long pet owner and an independent rescuer, I understand the deep bond we share with our fur babies and the care they very well deserve. I am experienced working with dogs (both large and small breeds), cats, puppies, kittens and special need pets. I treat every animal I care for as my very own. Why choose me? * Experienced and Trusted: 15 years of hands-on pet care experience. * Personalized Care: I will work with you to develop a care routine that suits your pet’s needs. * Flexible schedule: I prioritize your pets well being and accomodate your schedule. * Comfort and Peace of Mind: I focus on keeping your pet’s routine intact to reduce separation anxiety and stress. * I keep everything transparent, straightforward and maintain a stream lined communication for easy reading. Please note Rover policies: *For mixed-pet households (dog + cat), rates may be adjusted to reflect both species’ care needs. * House sitting includes standard care and normal walks. Dogs that need to be walked separately may require an add-on or dog-walking rate.

Yumi was very attentive to our pets and very communicative with us while we were away. If you're looking for transparency and happy pets, Yumi is a great choice.

Yumi has now walked Zeus 3 times and she always sends me plenty of pics and videos. She’s very communicative and professional. I’ll be using her when I got out town as well. She’s great!!

Yumi did an amazing job again walking our beloved doggy, Strudel. She always knows how to make him feel comfortable and happy. And she sent us lots of great photos so that we were reassured he is doing well.

I hired Yumi to walk Zeus and she did a great job! I’m going to be using her to house sit for my upcoming trip as well. She’s has great communication and showed that she cares for animals. Thank you Yumi!

Yumi took great care of our old German Shepherd Addie in our home. We asked Yumi pretty last minute and were really glad she agreed. Yumi was organized and followed all our instructions and sent us lots of nice updates. Addie clearly likes her. Thanks Yumi!

A few things that I always want to know about pets ahead of time: * Who are their emergency contacts and their Vet information * Any medication, allergies, shedding season information, medical condition, behaviorial traits, temperament and any known triggers * Dietary needs, specific food preferences, feeding scheduling. * Are they trained for off-leash adventures? How are they around other dogs? * What are your house rules? (are shoes allowed in the house, are they allowed on the furniture, do you prefer them to sleep with me on bed) * What are their favorite toys? Do they have names? (very important) * Socialization with cats, small/large dogs, children, strangers, mail carries, etc? * What are their quirks? What are some things about them that makes them unique?
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
