About Kai S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In client’s homes, I establish trust with animals by allowing them to set the pace. If the animal is nervous, I’ll slowly and quietly make sure their needs are met (food, water, clean space) and allow them to observe me. If the animals are more outgoing, I like to engage with them and learn how they enjoy being pet, played with, and spoken to.
Information Kai S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any particular needs or unique behaviors. Knowing their likes and dislikes helps me adjust to them quickly!
A typical day
I love engaging animals through exercise, affection, and “conversation.” I’m big on talking to the animals I care for, going on walks, and snuggling on the couch.

Enthusiastic, caring, knowledgeable
Pet care experience
I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments since I was a teenager. I care deeply about creating a safe, trusting relationship with the animals I look after, and am responsive to their boundaries. Whether they’re shy, exuberant, or nervous, I want to make your pet’s experience comfortable! I have 10 years experience with dogs, 15+ with cats, and 2 with rabbit, birds, and fish.
Cat care experience
Kai also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Kai is wonderful and we have greatly appreciated their help over the last few months - reliable and great communication!
Kai is a fantastic sitter. He loves my dog and all her quirks. My time away from home is worry-free, knowing he's looking after her. I'm beyond grateful to have him as our Sadie caregiver!!
Kai was prompt and Clark was super happy every day they had a walk together.
Great communication and report, right on time, highly recommended!
