Availability
I work part-time, so pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I’m mostly available on Fridays and weekends, which means I have plenty of time to give pets my full attention without feeling rushed!

About Kayla B.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always put pets’ safety and comfort first. On dog walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses, pay close attention to my surroundings, and go at a pace that’s comfortable for each dog. I’m careful around other dogs, traffic, and anything that might stress them out! For drop-in visits, I make sure pets feel relaxed and happy in their own home. I follow your instructions for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or medications, and I keep routines consistent so pets feel safe and comfortable. I also send updates and photos so you know your furry friends are doing well! I treat every home and pet like they’re my own, and I make sure both feel respected and cared for!

Loving Reliable Care for Your Pets
Pet care experience
I’ve been pet sitting for about 6 years and have raised three dogs of my own, so caring for dogs is truly second nature to me! I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities, reactive dogs, shy or nervous pups, and super energetic dogs, and I always take the time to meet them where they’re at! I’m very patient and pay close attention to body language and behavior, which helps me build trust, especially with dogs who need a little extra reassurance or structure! I stick closely to routines, make sure dogs get the right amount of exercise and mental stimulation, and keep things calm and positive! What really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care! I treat every pet like they’re my own and want both pets and their owners to feel comfortable and confident! I also make sure to send regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for!
Reviews
Kayla was great for our needed 10 drop-in visits over 5 days! Attentive and affectionate with our 2 large dogs. We hope she's available for future dog care needs.
Prompt to respond, helpful and patient with our large puppy who is still learning manners. She was a huge help taking care of our dog when we were gone for the day.
Kayla is a great dog walker and sitter! I have always been able to count on her to look after my dogs when I’m out of town or if they just need a good walk!
