Pet care experience
I’ve cared for pets for over 20 years and understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routine. I provide calm, patient care with frequent photo updates. I currently have one dog, Momo, a shy and gentle 75 lb girl, and one cat, MiaoMiao, a sweet and affectionate 5.5 lb girl, so I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of very different temperaments and sizes. I provide attentive, detail-oriented care including feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication if needed, and lots of patience and love. I’m especially mindful of shy, sensitive, or anxious pets and always work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Reviews
Zhi W. has been an incredible dog walker for our rescue dog, Pinky. From the very beginning, she took the time to get to know Pinky and met her exactly where she was, never rushing the process. As a large rescue dog, Pinky needed a lot of patience, love, and understanding, and Zhi gave her all of that and more. Zhi has always been consistent, dependable, and an excellent communicator. She kept us updated during every walk, shared how Pinky was doing, and made us feel confident that she was in the best hands. It’s clear that she truly loves dogs and understands that every dog has unique needs. Thanks to her calm, compassionate approach, Pinky grew more comfortable and confident over time. We always felt completely at ease knowing Pinky was safe, happy, and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Zhi again and absolutely plan to schedule walks with her in the future. We highly recommend Zhi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, patient, reliable, and caring dog walker!


We’ve been searching for a dog sitter for a while and our dogs love Zhi!! She was super responsive and attentive to our pups. It was refreshing to relax on vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of.

Zhi did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Maize, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with her. From the start, I noticed how thoughtful and attentive she was, wanting to learn about Maize's daily routine and asking great questions. She even helped care for my plants while we were away! One thing that was especially reassuring was that after reading Maize's medication label, Zhi noticed it said twice daily and reached out to double check our instructions rather than make assumptions. We really appreciated her attention to detail and conscientiousness. Our house was also very well cared for and left clean and tidy. We highly recommend Zhi as a kind, caring, and knowledgeable sitter, especially for rescue dogs or dogs who may need a little extra patience, attention, and love.


Zhi is phenomenal ! She took care of our two dogs for a week at our home. They enjoyed time with her spoiling them with treats and plenty of attention. Our older dog requires a little more care and Zhi did just that. She was so kind and caring to him, he truly loved her attention. Our younger dog has separation anxiety, Zhi was very attentive to him. He loved the walks she took him on. He loved her so much that when she left for a bit his howling made my neighbors worried lol. All in all, Zhi is an exemplar dog sitter. How she cared for our doggies and kept our home clean and tidy was well beyond expectation. Thank you Zhi ! Ollie misses you already.
