Pet care experience

Nurturing mother and cat mom

I have a strong reputation within my pet sitting circle curated here first on Rover. I keep up with the house chores when I house sit, and have accomodated farm life. I have experience with exotic pet caregiving as well as pigs, chickens and horses. Communication and listening builds trust with pets and their humans alike. I give my all to fostering the best possible relationships with all of my clients! With over 20 year’s experience with caring for many creatures, I will treat your pet as one of the family with gracious care.

Kaela recently stayed at my home with my dog for two weeks while I was in Europe. She was a lifesaver, after the sitter I had cancelled. She is dependable, professional, and most of all, she loves my 12 year old girl🐶. We’re so happy we found her and can’t say enough good things. We love you, Kaela!😍

Kaela is a dependable smart person who loves caring for pets.... I trust her to care with other's homes and animals. She has experience with dogs and cats and geckos and bearded dragons and just about anything people bring in. I love her very much.

I almost hate to say it, because I'm afraid she'll get too busy for us to schedule her, but Kaela is definitely the one you want to hire to take care of your furry family members! She is a real professional--competent, communicative and conscientious--everything you want in a pet sitter! She house-sat for me for a week, and I returned to a clean home with happy, healthy dogs and cats. She kept up my senior cat's multiple mealtimes, administered meds to my senior dog and retrieved my younger dogs after they escaped! She handled all of it with ease, AND a great attitude! Kaela will not disappoint!!!

Though Kaela is new to Rover, it is obvious that she has a great deal of experience with caring for animals. As a house-sitter for our two dogs over 4 days, we couldn't even tell she was there. She communicated well and took great care of the pups, even going above and beyond by taking our youngest, Callie, to the dog park twice during her stay. Kaela was professional and showed a true compassion for our dogs. We highly recommend her.

Schedule

As a graduate student, my schedule is flexible and I’m usually working on my laptop from home. My daughter is a teen who drives and available for backup help when I need her. We make a great team.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large unfenced yard and wooded area perfect for exploring. I allow my cats to roam but they never leave the front of the house. They are trained to come inside when I call them and I’ve even trained one to sit on command. They have access to a private room if a pet needs to stay overnight in my home. I never push boundaries and realize all creatures have their own personal bubble. I am an experienced walker and use positive coaching and encouragement for walks.

Pets

A typical day

I take dogs to walk around the field or in the woods if they are leash-trained. Otherwise the dog park is a short drive from my house! I usually try to make a trip to the park once a day if I have high energy dogs I am caring for.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kaela can host up to 6 pets per night
I would like to know code words and relevant training as well as how the dog gets along with other dogs. If there is any other information I’ll be able to incorporate it into our day :)
