Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Lover
I’ve grown up in a home with dogs and have always been comfortable around them. I had a Labrador before, so I’m very familiar with daily care, routines, and spending time with dogs. I graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Animal Science in 2025 and also have some experience interning at a vet clinic, which helped me better understand animal health and behavior. Since summer 2024, I’ve been helping friends with dog sitting, walking, and boarding. I’ve done three long-term stays (over a month each), so I’m comfortable caring for dogs for extended periods and helping them settle in. I’m responsible, patient, and happy to send updates and photos while you’re away!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment right now, but I make sure pets have a clean, safe, and comfortable space. I take dogs out for regular walks and make sure they get enough exercise, attention, and care throughout the day. I pay close attention to their behavior and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, routines, and any special needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease.
Ratings and reviews
Zhiyu was great with communication and provided timely updates! Julius was also very comfortable around her!
Zhiyu did a great job with Henry and giving a very detailed report! Thank you!
This was my 2nd time booking Zyihu and once again she provided excellent service…I would definitely recommend.
Zhiyu was wonderful, she came for a meet & greet first which was great because my dog doesn’t always like new people but Jack had no issues at all and I was comfortable leaving my boy with Zhiyu. She walked Jack 6 times over the weekend and was punctual and very kind…I would definitely recommend Zhiyu and I will definitely use her again in the future…Thanks Zhiyu

Schedule
I’m currently a student, but I have good availability in the mornings before 8am and in the evenings after 5pm, so I’m able to do walks and spend quality time with your dog during those hours. I’m also flexible on weekends and can adjust based on your pet’s routine. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for.
