Information Kailyn L. would like to know about your pet

I am a mom to a wonderful, kind and energetic 7-year-old boy. He is a big animal lover and loves to travel with me when it is safe for him and the pets. Please let me know if your pet is nervous or reactive towards children so I can plan our stay accordingly, as we completely understand and respect that not all animals are a good fit for this.

A typical day

As we all know, mental stimulation is key to a happy pet. My high-energy clients recieve as much activity as they can handle, whether that be from daily walks, backyard zoomie sessions, or a good game of tug-of-war or fetch. For my more laid-back clients, I like to follow their lead! Play time is always an option, but I am never opposed to a lounge day with extra belly rubs.

Experienced & Reliable Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

My name is Kailyn, and I cannot wait to get to know your pet! Having grown up with 3 dogs and 2 cats throughout my childhood, I have been grown up to be a huge animal lover. As an adult, I am lucky to be a cat mama to two beautiful boys, Tito and Cosmo, that I found as strays and have raised from ~6 weeks old. I have 7 years of experience in dog and cat care outside of my home, including puppy, kitten, and senior care, as well as pets that are a bit more anxious (or spicy!) than others. I am convinced that there isn't an animal on this planet that I can't win over. I am well-versed in understanding cues and body language and take pride in my ability to earn an animal's trust through slow and thoughful first interactions. My sister, Avantae, and I also co-own a pet care business and have over 15 years of combined petsitting experience, along with over 10 years of veterinary experience that Avantae brings to the table. Booking with me will always guarantee that you have a relaxing travel experience knowing that your fur baby is in loving and caring hands. Who knows, your pet might have a new best friend by the time you return!

Kailyn was so great!! She checked in with us regularly, sent us cute pics throughout the week, and followed our dog’s schedule (even his weird meal times)! Originally we were nervous to leave our dog for so long, especially being so far away, but Kailyn made us feel very comfortable leaving him with her!! We will definitely reach out to Kailyn again and would recommend her to anyone. :)

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.
