Information Ayla Y. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog's personality and how he/she responds to strange dogs. If your pup has any seperation anxiety, that is helpful for me to know as well.

A typical day

We'll go on long walks, play lots of fetch, and give lots of loving petting sessions! I live close by to some hiking trails, so can easily bring your dog along for a nature walk.

Pet care experience

I currently own a 11 year old beagle who gets along well with others, alternating between bouts of energy and sleepiness. I'm happy to watch most dogs, but will decline pitbulls and rottweilers. My dog loves frequent long walks, and I'm happy to bring yours along. Or if yours prefers to stay home, that is wonderful too! I also routinely watch older dogs with limited mobility and detailed medicine needs, so can be flexible to whatever is required. I work from home and can take your pup out for as many walks and adventures as they'd like.

Ayla was truly wonderful and everything we could have asked for in caring for our dog Wally for a week. She’s organized, thorough, responsive, and most importantly Wally seems very happy, calm, and welcomed into Ayla’s home. He also got lots of exercise which we really appreciate. Thanks a million!

Ayla was a great puppy sitter for our little girl. This was the first time we had used Rover and Ayla’s profile stood out to us. She was extremely helpful letting us meet with her prior to the boarding, and throughout she was communicating and providing updates. Our puppy came back to us healthy and we could tell she had enough exercise and fun ( she just slept once we picked her up). We cannot recommend Ayla enough, she cares and treated our puppy like her own. We will continue to work with Ayla because we know we can trust her with our girl.

Ayla was awesome with our energetic Aussie, Tyler! She took him for lots of long walks, made sure he got plenty of snuggles, and sent lots of pictures. Tyler got along great with Ayla’s sweet beagle. We would definitely boar Tyler with Ayla again!

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.
