Availability
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule right now. That allows me to give the pets in my care plenty of attention, companionship, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day — never rushed. I also live just down the street from a park, which is perfect for regular walks, fresh air, and fun playtime to keep dogs happy and active.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can keep their environment consistent, calm, and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — from feeding schedules and walks to medications and preferred routines. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are always secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during outdoor time. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision and attention. I never leave pets unattended for long periods, ensure they have constant access to fresh water, and monitor their behavior closely to make sure they feel safe and relaxed. With over 16 years of hands-on animal experience, including veterinary settings, I’m confident in recognizing signs of stress or illness quickly and responding appropriately. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, secure, and right at home — wherever they are.

Pet care experience
I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, supported by continued education in animal care. I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant in multiple clinics, where I gained experience with senior dogs and administering daily medications safely and calmly. I am also trained to administer CPR and the Heimlich maneuver for cats and dogs, allowing me to respond confidently in emergency situations.

Reviews
She took on a last-minute mission to take care of my two dogs, including one trouble maker😌 and one senior dog needed insulin shots. She took time to meet and greet and actively communicated with us before and throughout the duration. She was also fast to reply messages and sent us picture updates, etc. Would definitely recommend her!
Kayla was wonderful! Ruby loved her, and Kayla was always so sweet and had great communication! We will definitely use her again! :)
Kayla C. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Leaving our home and our dogs is always stressful, but our experience was completely worry-free. Our dogs stuck to their normal routine, got plenty of love and exercise, and were clearly happy when we got back. The house was just as clean as we left it. Reliable, respectful, and genuinely caring!
