Animal Behaviorist/Fulltime Sitter
I am a full time petsitter and behaviorist with 13 years of experience with positive reinforcement training, behavior modification, shelter work, petsitting, and working within a variety of shelters, veterinary clinics, aquariums, and zoos across the United States. I am a former zookeeper and biologist who recently became a fulltime behaviorist and sitter. I have two degrees in biology and psychology, as well as certifications for fear free animal handling and positive reinforcment animal training. I currently am a certified behaviorist and work full time with behavior modification, reactive pets, and petsitting which allows me to have a completely open schedule for your needs! I am available for weekly midday drop ins, day visits, boarding, overnight visits, behavior modification, basic training, and caring for all animals, including exotics! I have petsat for over 150 repeat clients with a variety of animals from hoofstock to small domestics. I have experience caring for senior animals and animals with special needs (medical and behavioral). I am able to stay overnight, provide boarding, provide daycare, and house sit while you and your family enjoy a break. Please contact me if you are interested!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Katie was great! I felt like my dog was in good hands.
AMAZING! Super responsive and my dog LOVES! Would absolutely recommend!
I’ve had nothing but great experiences with Kayla! She responded immediately when I requested an initial meet and greet, and has been available to satisfy all of my work-day daily check in needs! My puppy, Pepper seems to love her, and she always sends photo and potty updates which brings me peace of mind.
Great job!
Kayla was extremely communicative. I appreciated their flexibility and patience with my cat as a spicy kitty with medicinal needs and me as a new user. It was such a relief to have someone so knowledgeable looking after Peanut!
Kayla was the best! Professional and trustworthy all the way! I have a small animal (hamster) so was a little nervous going on here to find someone since they are so specialized, but Kayla went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and was very knowledgeable about all kinds of animals! If I ever go on a trip again she will be the one I go to!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I always treat my clients and their fur-kids the way I would want my pups to be treated. I spend all of my free time with them to give them the best attention and care while their family is away. I send daily pictures and updates as well!
Pets
A typical day
I always like to make sure that your animal is getting the best care and exercise. I like to take them on long walks, play calming music for them when it's time to decompress, and play fun games with them such as fetch, find it games, and training.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsKayla can host up to 2 pets per night
- I recommend an in home visit before becoming a new client in order to formerly introduce myself and get to know you and your fur kids! I recommend written instructions and emergency contact information for overnight pet sitting. I also recommend writing down your current veterinary information, as well as any medications your pet is on.
