Safety, trust & environment
When caring for a client’s pet in their home, I treat their animal as if they were my own. I know how much trust it takes to let someone into your space and care for your beloved pet, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I make sure their routine is followed exactly—meals, walks, playtime, cuddles—everything that makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. I also pay close attention to any special needs, medications, or behavioral quirks. Every pet has their own personality, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each one. I send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is not only being cared for, but truly cared about. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities, and my goal is to make your time apart as stress-free as possible—for both you and them Let me know if you want to tailor this for specific animals (dogs, cats, senior pets, etc.)!
Ratings and reviews
Kaila did a wonderful job dog sitting. Our pups were well taken care of. She sent daily updates with pictures.
Kaila was great! The meet and greet went super smooth and she was up to keeping up with his training he’s in. She stayed communicating with us and sent us the best pictures of our big boy! Would definitely recommend! 😊
A huge thank you for taking care of everything! A quick review of Kaila with Rover, We just wanted to reach out and say a massive thank you to Kaila for being such an absolutely exceptional house and dog sitter! Honestly, we know Woody can be a bit of a challenge to get to know at first – he's a little choosy about who he lets into his inner circle! But you clearly have the magic touch, because you completely won him over and made him your new best friend. That means the world to us. It was such a relief knowing that both the house and Woody were in such incredibly capable and caring hands. We truly appreciate everything you did. Thanks again for everything and woody love his new toy you got him. :-) Warmly, John
Kaila is amazing! She took care of my dog and house as if they were her own. My pup absolutely adores her—he was happy, calm, and well-exercised every time I checked in. Kaila gave me regular updates, sent the cutest photos, and was super respectful of my home. I came back to a clean space and a very happy dog. I’ll definitely be booking her again. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and genuinely caring—Kaila’s the one!
Kaila is the absolute best with dogs! She’s watched my pup multiple times, and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in loving, capable hands. She grew up with at least three dogs at home at all times, so caring for animals is second nature to her. Kaila is patient, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals—my dog lights up every time he sees her! Highly recommend! —Madison M.

Schedule
As a dog and cat owner myself, my schedule is already accommodated for pet care. Adding additional pets into my routine would not hinder it at all! I work 5 days a week ( the days vary). My shifts start at 4pm in downtown Savannah. All of my mornings before 4pm are available for walking or sitting.

- To provide the best care for your pet, here’s what I’d love to know ahead of time: 1. Basic Info: • Name, age, and breed • Any nicknames or commands they respond to 2. Personality & Preferences: • Are they shy, social, playful, anxious, energetic, or more laid-back? • Favorite toys, games, or routines • Any quirks I should know about? 3. Feeding Details: • What they eat, how much, and when • Any food allergies or sensitivities • Treats they can (or can’t) have 4. Medical Needs: • Any medications? How and when do they take them? • Ongoing health conditions or past injuries • Vet contact info (just in case of emergencies) 5. Bathroom Habits: • Potty schedule and signs they need to go • Where and how they usually go (litter box, walks, puppy pads, etc.) • Clean-up routine or products you prefer 6. Exercise & Play: • Walk preferences (route, pace, duration) • Leash behavior—puller, reactive, etc. • Favorite games or activities 7. Socializing: • How do they react to other pets, people, or kids? • Any triggers (bikes, skateboards, loud noises)? • Are they okay being alone for short periods? 8. House Rules: • Are they allowed on furniture or beds? • Any off-limits areas or behaviors to discourage? 9. Emergency Plan: • What should I do if there’s a storm, injury, or urgent situation? • Backup contact if I can’t reach you? 10. Anything else you’d like me to know! Every pet is unique, and the more I know, the better I can keep their tail wagging or purr motor running while you’re away.
