Pet care experience

Trusted care, happy paws always

Hi there! I’m Kayla, proud dog mom to two little pups and now happily settled in the Tacoma area. With 20 + years of hands-on care (senior dogs, special needs, administering meds, you name it!), I bring a blend of experience, compassion and fun to every pet sitting or dog walk and check-in. Whether your furry one needs a brisk walk in a new neighborhood or a calm drop-in visit while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. Having lived and cared for pets in different climates and settings, I know how important it is to adapt to your pet’s unique rhythm: rainy-day indoor play, safe solo time on nice days, and photo updates for peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, communicative and excited about caring for your pet like they’re my own, you’ve found her. Let’s chat and make a plan that fits your schedule and your pet’s personality.

Kayla did a wonderful job taking care of my 3 ACTIVE dogs while I was away on a business trip. I would recommend Kayla to anyone who wants a stress free trip knowing your pet is in great hands.

Kayla was wonderful for our little kids Chloe and Milo when we went away on our anniversary cruise. She asked lots of questions about their needs and care and made sure they got out every day! She kept us in the loop with photos and they always looked happy in the photos (parents know when their kids are not happy lol) When we came home the house was left neat and tidy like we left it and the pups were happy to see us! We will be using her again very soon to take care of our pups when we cant take them with.

I know every dog is unique in their own way. Knowing their likes and dislikes is key but also knowing some of their quirks can be helpful in knowing what “normal” for them.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
