A Caring Presence for Your Pets 🐾

Hi, I’m Kayla! Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work with a veterinary hospital as a recruiter, so I’m surrounded by veterinary professionals every day and have a strong understanding of pet health, behavior, and care. Before that, I spent a year working at an AZA-accredited zoo, where I was trained to handle & show a wide variety of animals—so I’m comfortable with more than just cats and dogs! I’ve personally owned dogs, cats, iguanas, and bearded dragons, and I’m happy to care for all kinds of pets—whether that’s your energetic pup, your shy cat, or even fish, reptiles, or other unique companions. I offer drop-ins and walks, and my goal is always to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether they need playtime, long walks, or just a calm, cozy presence, I adjust to what makes them happiest. ✨ What you can expect from me: • Lots of love, patience, and attention • Reliable, communicative care with regular updates & photos • Comfort with a wide range of animals and personalities • Respectful, clean care in your home I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your pets—I’ll make sure you do. I’d love to meet you and your animals! 🐶🐱🦎🐰🐍🐟

Kayla is amazing ! I have never used Rover before and I won’t use anything else again. She sent photos and was very communicative during her stay. My babies loved her and they were so happy the entire time. I have never been more at ease leaving them ! I will recommmend her to everyone I know. Best experience ever !

Schedule

I do cat & dog sitting weekly & work it into my work schedule. My job is very flexible & helps me be able to go on trips & have fun! I work Tues-Thurs in office each week, but not a full 9-5 schedule on those days.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kayla can host up to 6 drop-ins per day
Schedule, schedule, schedule! Dogs & humans both thrive with a schedule & I want to help with your dogs stress levels while you are gone, as well as keep everyone safe.
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.
