Highlights
Pet care experience
Seasoned Animal Care Professional
I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 years old for dogs, cats, ducks, birds - you name it! I knew I wanted to work with animals, so I studied animal science in college, and did three years as a vet tech at the same time. After graduating, I worked at a small zoo for a couple of years, as well as in a rodent lab as an animal caretaker. I now work for an animal health company, and have a 2 year old cat who I trained to go on adventures with me! While my cat is my only pet at the moment, I grew up with dogs, birds and chickens, and loved every moment of it. Thanks to my time as a vet tech, I’m very comfortable working with puppies, senior pets, dogs needing medical attention, and dogs of all sizes and temperaments.

Safety, trust & environment
Having worked in the animal health industry for the past 10 years, safety always comes first for me! I have a lot of experience reading body language cues, and always make sure an animal is comfortable and confident with me before entering their space. With this said, I always try to show the animals in my care the love I’d give to my own fur babies!
Ratings and reviews
Another great visit from Kayla. She communicated all weekend and Kimbo was very happy to see her.
Kayla continues to impress me every time she house sits for my dog Kimbo. I love the amount of communication and photos I receive during her visits. Kimbo seems happy to be around with her and even gets spoiled by Kayla. Thank you so much! We appreciate you!
Thank you for everything 🙏🏽
Kayla is, without a doubt, the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. It’s clear from the moment you meet her that she genuinely loves and understands dogs. She’s reliable, attentive, and treats our dog like her own, which gives us complete peace of mind when we’re away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.
Thank you for everything
You are the best 💕

Schedule
I work a hybrid full time during the week and sometimes travel for work, so I’m looking to provide drop-in care or walks on my remote days (M, F) and weekends. Please note that going forward, all bookings must be requested within 60 days of the service. Any requests made past the 60 day window will not be confirmed and a new booking request will need to be made closer to the service date.
