Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring/Active Dog Trainer!
I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15 and am currently working professionally as a dog trainer. I work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience. Many of my training clients also trust me with their dogs’ daily care, including walks, feeding, enrichment, and basic grooming. I share my life with my 5-year-old Australian Shepherd, Oubre, who is on a home-cooked diet, so I’m very comfortable following detailed feeding instructions, including raw or fresh food routines. I’m attentive, calm, and observant, and I always prioritize your dog’s comfort, safety, and routine—whether that’s sticking to training rules, keeping walks structured, or just making sure they feel secure while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they’re my own and aim to be someone both you and your dog can genuinely trust.

Ratings and reviews
Yvonne is the best! She kept us up to date during Kuma’s entire stay. Her gorgeous Aussie, Oubre, is such a gentle brother! Kuma definitely had a great time with Yvonne and Oubre with lots of play and walk. Would definitely recommend Yvonne to anyone need a sitter!
Yvonne was great with my dog! She’s responsible and communicative throughout the day. I would recommend!
Yvonne is amazing!! She really knows her pets well and made me feel at ease leaving our baby Roman overnight. Next time we visit San Diego we definitely will be using her again.
What can I say about Yvonne. She’s very knowledgeable and so sweet. She made sure our dog was feeling comfortable during her stay at her house for few days. She constantly updates and let you know how your dog is doing which is just more than great. I would definitely look for her again when we get a chance. She’s the best.
Yvonne was an excellent person to leave Kylo with. You could tell she just cares. She was very up front and open about her requirements, offered to do a meet and greet (which we normally have to ask for ourselves), and has a very well trained pup! She even sent us a bunch of pictures and updates which we loved. We would absolutely book with Yvonne again! Thank you!!
Our pup had a great day with Yvonne and Kevin and Oubre! Yvonne sent updates throughout the day, she was active with

Schedule
My schedule is very flexible, and with my husband working from home, we can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can take dogs out every 1–2 hours for potty breaks, play fetch, work on basic obedience, and enjoy long sniff walks for at least an hour daily. High-energy dogs can even play together. I’m available weekdays and weekends.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe and comfortable environment for your pets both at my home and yours. My spacious patio allows dogs to play with my friendly Aussie indoors and outdoors. I also take dogs to a nearby dog-friendly park with a large grass field for potty breaks and play, including fetch and sniff walks for at least an hour after dinner. I have three crates available to maintain consistency with crate training, so your dog can stay comfortably overnight.

A typical day
We have a large, dog-friendly community park just a 5-minute walk away, which we visit for quick breaks during the day. In the evenings around 6:00 PM, we jog there to play. Activities include fetch, obedience training, and leisurely walks. We typically spend at least an hour at the park, where my dog loves chasing frisbees and balls and enjoys treats during training sessions.
