Experienced, Dependable, Patient,

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Kayla Barnett, an army wife and proud pet parent to two cats and two dogs. Animals have always been a huge part of my life—from growing up with a pet crow named Ivan and a raccoon named Berkeley to rescuing and rehabilitating baby raccoons and skunks. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do; it’s part of who I am. I’ve been walking dogs since middle school and have experience with almost every breed, from Affenpinschers to Pit Bulls and Huskies. I also work on manners and socialization, ensuring pets feel comfortable and cared for. Over the years, I’ve provided pet care for fellow military families, and now that I’m stationed far from a base, I’ve decided to restart my pet-sitting profile. My husband and I are active, love being outdoors, and dream of owning a ranch in Texas one day. Until then, we’re dedicated to giving your fur babies all the love, attention, and care they deserve—just like we would want for our own!

Kayla is an amazing pet sitter! She's so caring, attentive, and gentle with our fur babies, and completely dependable. Our pets love her, and we love the peace of mind she provides. Thank you, Kayla!

Kayla was amazing this was my first time using rover so I was a little nervous along with leaving my cat while I went on vacation. However Kayla was great, kept me informed and always let me know what was going on with my kitty. I definitely would have Kayla watch my cat again she’s the best!

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how important it is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your pets. In our home, we believe in creating a space where every pet can feel at ease, whether they’re staying for a few hours or a few days. I share my home with two cats and two dogs who absolutely love making new friends. They help ensure every guest feels welcome, and their playful energy can keep even the most energetic pets entertained. We have a fully fenced yard and a two-story home, so there’s plenty of room for pets to roam and relax. Whether your pet needs their own quiet space, or they prefer to join in on the fun with the rest of the crew, we can accommodate their needs. We also have both small and large kennels for pets who prefer some time to themselves. Safety and trust are at the heart of everything we do. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs and personality. Whether your pet enjoys snuggling up with the family at night or prefers some private space, we’re here to cater to their comfort. I’m a calm and patient person, and I take pride in building trust with even the shyest kitty or the most energetic dog. If your pet needs extra attention, whether it’s some quiet time or running miles for their daily exercise, I’m happy to help. Every pet is unique, and I’m committed to ensuring that they feel right at home while they’re with us.

Availability

Pet Care Schedule: As a full-time pet care provider, I am committed to ensuring your pets receive the attention, care, and love they deserve, around the clock. I offer flexible pet care services and am available 24/7 to handle any emergencies or urgent needs. Weekly Routine: Exercise & Adventure Days: I make sure each pet gets the exercise they need. For dogs that require a lot of movement, we go on longer walks or runs, depending on their energy levels. I also organize playdates when appropriate, so pets can socialize and burn energy. Training & Enrichment: I provide mental stimulation through training sessions, puzzle toys, and engaging activities. If your pet enjoys it, I’ll also work on specific training goals, such as leash walking or new tricks. Emergency Care: As a pet care professional, I understand that emergencies can arise. I’m available 24/7 for urgent care needs or last-minute appointments. Whether it’s a sudden health issue or you need someone to step in at the last minute, I’m here to help. Special Skills: I have experience with farm animals, exotics, and animals of all sizes, including large and more challenging pets. I am passionate about learning new animal care techniques and husbandry, so whether it’s a bird, reptile, or large farm animal, I am more than happy to take on the challenge! No matter the species, size, or care needs of your pet, I tailor my routine to match their individual requirements. I love all animals, from furry friends to scaly companions, and am dedicated to making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and safe.
