Dog lover turned trainer
Pet care experience
After getting my first dogs from a shelter I quickly learned how much there was to learn about dogs! The experience I gained with my dogs introduced me to a new passion: dog training. My personal dogs are AKC Canine Good Citizens and compete in a variety of dog sports, and I freelance pet training for friends and fosters. I have experience training everything from housebreaking to advanced obedience, from tricks to behavior modification, from grooming to medicating, TTouch and physical therapy. I am adept at handling a multi-dog household and making sure everyone gets individual attention and care. My puppy rate is an additional $5/night for dogs under 6 months. Client dogs are required to have crate training experience. I do offer training while boarding for an additional fee. Any "last minute" booking finalized within 36 hours of the scheduled start of boarding may be subject to a flat fee of up to $10.
Reviews
Cayla is my go-to sitter for my 2 year old lab mix! He’s stayed with her multiple times now and has always come back happy and healthy. I can count on her to give my pup the best care!
Our pup Bella had a really good stay with Cayla. Cayla was very accommodating when our flight was delayed and we had to pick her up several hours later than we had planned. Definitely plan to use Cayla again!
My 1 year old lab had a great stay at Cayla’s while I was out of town for a few days. Cayla is an experienced and communicative sitter and has a genuine love for dogs! She sent daily updates with photos and answered any questions I had. Her home is well dog-proofed and I can tell my pup played well with her friendly dogs since he took a long nap within 5 minutes of coming home. Would definitely bring my pup back for another stay!
Cayla's been sitting my dog Darby for a few weeks now. She is the perfect match for him. He's still a pup, so I made sure to tell her about all of his puppy behavioral issues. She's been working with him on these, advising me of what to do, and he is definitely behaving better! Darby loves her too, and looks forward to seeing her every day. Cayla knows her stuff. She understands dog psychology, and what to do if altercations arise. She's explained to my why dogs act the way they do. She's been so helpful. I can't recommend her enough. She is definitely a professional, and a total dog lover!
